My January misssive....
I would not be surprised if there is an artificial (so arranged for far right liberal politics) "Illegal immigrants boat crisis" in an effort to trigger a fear of more boats vote swing...
It will occur about three weeks out from the federal vote, a couple of patrol boats will be pulled back to base for "urgent maintenance" and 2-3 fishing boats carrying immigrants from Indonesia will reach main land Australia...
All the scripts are in the cupboard and it removes a need to compete on the current playing field...

How much do you think it will cost to run this stunt?
Cheers
