The Turnbull Government

[dutchie]

Come on Malcolm, do something about the traitor Dastyari (as Shorten won't).

Kick him out of the country and pack him off to China!

True

 

[dutchie]

However, must give Turnbull credit for his stance on influence of China on our sovereignty.

By the look of the reaction from Beijing its well overdue.

Don't believe anything Chinese say.

If it's true then yes, but if the Chinese are printing fake news to make the Govt look resolute, then no.

The Chinese are experts at obscuration, deflection and disregarding truth and their press are no different.

We should sell Christmas Island to them for 2 trilion before they take it for nothing

I must go back through the posts, to the point you and Rumpy were saying "if Turnbull was leading the LNP, you may consider voting for them".

Back then the Liberalites were saying, " Turnbull is a joke, why put him as leader again"?

Obviously Labor pulled off another 'blinder'. lol

Just put a bigger buffoon in charge, than your buffoon. lol

You won't find a post with considering a vote for Malcolm. In fact I have form in my long held conviction he is all pi55 and wind. It just took Rumpole a little more time ...say 6 years or so

Andrew Robb could be challenging our national security too.

Malcolm Turnbull and top cabinet ministers have been slapped with a stinging rebuke from a former senior colleague over their plan to target “covert” agents who work for foreign powers, amid a political storm over Chinese influence in national affairs.
Former trade minister Andrew Robb, who masterminded John Howard’s 1996 election victory, warned the Prime Minister and other members of the national security committee of federal cabinet against fuelling a “smear” against his name that suggests “treasonous” activity because he advises a Chinese company.

He needs to be very careful.

If he had stuck to his guns over things like an ETS then I think I would have voted for him, but his performance has been weak kneed and ineffectual, so yes I now concede that Tisme was right.

Voting Liberal would have been a tough choice for me at any time, but it's now out of the question.

If Dastyari has to go from the Labor Party (and he should), then Robb should quit his job with Landbridge.

Having a former Cabinet Minister with a Cabinet security clearance in the grip of a Chinese company with strong connections to the Chinese government (don't they all) is a bigger threat threat to national security than little Sam.

No its not.

 

[SirRumpole]

No its not.

Why not ?

 

[Tisme]

Why not ?

Given that the Chinese State owns all the businesses and actively asserts its political will on them is major cause for concern.

Does anyone remember the tenders for NBN rollout technology and who was barred from participating because of security concerns?

There is one difference. Unlike Andrew Robb, Dastaryi is still in parliament and privy to sensitive info so there is a trust / conflict of interest issue.

Trouble with politics is mud sticks and Dastaryi is a liability with 2 not out.

When you gotta go ya gotta go

But he wasn't privy. That has already been established. He wasn't in the circle of trust and the govt knows it.

Robb has already been isolatated and just as much a sellout. Libs are generally US centric when it comes to factions.

Dastyari is backed by a powerful faction coupled with the fact that labor factions and unions support communist China.

It doesn't stop just at Dastyari. Why do you think he is still there. I don't agree with downplaying his role as insignificant when it isn't.

 

[SirRumpole]

Why do you think he is still there.

He's still there because he can't be thrown out of Parliament. He could be thrown out of the Labor Party but he still gets to sit in the Senate.

Robb had access to sensitive security information as a Cabinet Minister. There is nothing to say that he won't say the wrong thing in a moment of weakness and there are people who will be recording everything he says.

 

[Tisme]

with the fact that labor factions and unions support communist China.

.

Can you elaborate and provide proofs of that? Unions are generally anti communist AFAIK, in no small part because labour unions are banned in China, aren't they?

Yes and the new ASIO building that had to be ripped apart and rebuilt
