    Sojourner; it also begs the question as to how these people will be paid if the Minister, PM and Treasurer not only know nothing about them but haven't read reports that apparently haven't been brought to their attention.

    Indeed, it begs lots of questions:

    Then there is the CRYSTAL CLEAR promise made by Tony Abbott himself [my emphasis]:
    "... "I want to make it absolutely crystal clear, as far as this Government is concerned, people will never be stopped in the street randomly and asked for their visa details," Mr Abbott told reporters in Sydney.
    "That's the sort of thing that would never, ever happen in this country." ..."

    All of that lot leaves one wondering as to exactly what it is that those 6,000 ABF staff will actually be doing [Note: 6000 staff costing say $100,000 each including oncosts => $600m each year!
