    The govt made hay that it had to re-open Christmas Island due to the medivac legislation
    and said it had to commit big bucks to accomodate the re-opening.

    Now, in the budget it reflects that the just re-opened but still unused Christmas Island detention centre
    is to be closed.

    What a con job and fiasco that the govt has inflicted on the Australian people.

    Morrison went to Christmas Island sprouting how they had no choice but to re-open it because all the sick refugees on Manus and Nauru would have to be re-located there because of the Medivac Bill. It was just another scare tactic which seems similar to the Tampa children overboard lie under the Howard govt. At least Howard’s govt managed to win an election before that lie was exposed but this mob are so incompetent they have been caught out before the election which is only six weeks away.

    They couldn’t count during the leadership spill. Have had to change their own budget within 24hours of announcing it and near we hear the Christmas Island re-opening was just a con job and they are trying to convince us they are competent managers lol.
