abbott, yet another slogan and no policy

The federal opposition says it won't be "played for mugs" by asylum seekers who threaten self-harm to force merchant vessels into bringing them to Australia.

I saw it on the news , Abbott just kept repeating the same slogan , "we won't be played for mugs", was this guy really a Rhodes Scholar ?

Opposition also said it could send in troops, sounds like Kevin Rudd was right , this mob are very dangerous.
