FULL INTERVIEW: Mathias Cormann says Australians will be 'kicked out of their houses' and will be forced to wait longer for medical treatment if asylum seekers from Manus Island and Nauru are flown to the mainland under medivac laws. So far, no asylum seeker on Manus Island and Nauru has been treated in Australia, despite the passage of the controversial medivac bill last month.
The legislation, which has yet to receive royal assent, gives doctors a greater say over whether asylum seekers in offshore detention centres can be flown to Australia for treatment, though it still allows the Home Affairs minister to reject transfers on national security grounds. Labor frontbencher Kristina Keneally has told Sky News the government is engaging in 'fearmongering' over the issue.
J_C_Campbell And this bloke is a News Corp journo and he's telling the truth!
J_C_Campbell St Vincent's Hospital says the claim is rubbish and I know who I'd believe.
J_C_Campbell It makes perfect sense to many
J_C_Campbell My brother has been waiting 10 months for a hip replacement. So we’re thinking of flying to Manus and buying a boat.
J_C_Campbell Desperate men do desperate things & Morrison's desperate
J_C_Campbell Liar
J_C_Campbell It’s totally insane making those claims by the libs they must be really worried about loosing the election. How low will these dysfunctional muppets go before the the election .Boot them out now .
J_C_Campbell Let’s call it what Morrison and Dutton have stated... it’s utter bullshit, lies and they should now be made to state evidence of these lies when where who?
J_C_Campbell Doesn't Australia have any waiting lists for surgery?
J_C_Campbell Auspol
J_C_Campbell Seedy and evil. Divisive. Probably the worst play at wedge politics we’ve ever seen. But then despicabledutton knows no low. auspol
J_C_Campbell The trail of carnage left in the wake of the LNPfail over the past few years & beyond is impossible to forget. The Libs continue taking our feathers for their nests
J_C_Campbell Well well at least this bloke calls it seedy I don't watch Sky News but maybe it is better than the ABC at the moment
J_C_Campbell Another big spudhead shaped lie
J_C_Campbell Desperate is an understatement. The desire to keep fingers in the cookie jar is overwhelming. No idea what LNP vision is for Australia, I doubt that there is one. Business plan seems obvious. Stay close to cookie jar , friends need feeding 🙄
J_C_Campbell They are receiving a Medivac - who in Remote Communities is afforded this? Any needy kids? What about all the POOR Aussie kids advertised on TV every day - you know - living in Poverty? Nothing for them? enough bull$hit thanks AUSTRALIANS FIRST - Stuff UN ,Activists & Supporters
J_C_Campbell Why seedy? Call it for what it is. A lie
J_C_Campbell They will be when Labor become the govt remember illegal immigrants come first it is the way the leftie mutant like it makes them feel good inside their under ware
J_C_Campbell Well unless they’re going on the end of the existing list, is it not intuitively logical that they must ‘jump the queue’ on the waiting list to get seen in Australia? Unless of course the process is just a scam to get them into Australia?
J_C_Campbell Agree, they have this vote already. The more they go on like this the greater chance of them losing votes. They will only win back votes if they turn positive with policies for the future. Not holding my breath
J_C_Campbell But it is true.
J_C_Campbell That is an utterly atrocious claim from the government.
