“So, I think it’s essentially a work of fiction. It’s a character assassination of a character who doesn’t exist.”

Tony Abbott - 2011

In response to this book.

We’ll see, Tony.

“This is yet another illustration of the fact that our Prime Minister can’t hold a consistent line from morning to evening.”

Tony Abbott - 2011

Pot calling kettle inconsistent?

“It’s good that Minister Bowen has been here today representing the Government, but certainly on behalf of the Coalition I want to say that we deplore what’s happened, we think it’s absolutely incumbent on the government of Egypt to ensure that the ordinary human rights of everyone – Muslim, Christian, everyone – are properly respected.

I should also say that over the last 24 hours we’ve had another three boats and what we’re seeing is obviously a Government that’s lost control of our borders, and if you can’t control our borders you can’t govern the country.”

Tony Abbott - 2011

Egypt, you need to uphold the human rights of “everyone.” Immediately comment on, in relation to Australia, boats that carry asylum seekers. Asylum seekers we continue to treat with great negligence, in direct conflict with the Refugee Convention and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Asylum seekers you say “want to force themselves on Australia.” And a policy you believe needs to be stronger, and is not as great (read: negligent) as that of John Howard’s.

Okay.

“Australia has a proud history of giving shelter to those facing persecution…” Tony Abbott - 2011

“The government has taken a long time to learn some bitter lessons: that it’s impossible to have secure borders without taking strong action against those who violate them; and that governments that are a soft touch won’t be taken seriously.” Tony Abbott - 2011

“People have to understand – if necessary, they must be made to understand – that the only way to gain permanent residency in Australia is to arrive legitimately in accordance with the rules.” Tony Abbott - 2011

“The Labor Party should have appreciated from its own time in government that there is no nice way to deal with people who are determined to exploit Australians’ goodwill.” Tony Abbott - 2011
