I don't think Julia will stop the boats anymore than I think Tony will.
Its more to do with push factors , when big displacements occurs as in Sri Lanka boats will come.
If we and the yanks pull out of Afganistan watch the boats start to increase from that area and no government policy short of sinking them will stop it.
Its a non-issue anyway , beat up by the openly right winged media that openly endorses Tony Abbott.
If he wins and the world double dips we are screwed.
When you guys are whinging about your share values dropping , when some of you don't have jobs anymore , when you house price has crashed and your savings are gone. Look in the mirror and ask yourself , why did I vote for Tony.
