Abbott gov denies blame for Border Farce - bullshit alert!

How stupid do they think we are?

Abbott keeps saying he knew nothing about it.

Peter cabbage face Dutton, otherwise known as immigration minister, has come out with the most unbelievable excuse ever as to why it's not his fault. See even though he's the one in charge of TERROR!© and all, apparently that doesn't involved reading emails that he deems as "routine". Not only him, but everyone in his office as well doesn't read any emails that are "routine", even though they're supposedly to do with "Border Security". 

Peter Dutton's office received an advanced copy of the press release saying Australian Border Force officers would be cracking down on visa fraud but no-one read it, the Immigration Minister says. 

The operation in Melbourne was called off on Friday after public outcry over the suggestion Border Force officers would be on the streets of Melbourne "speaking with any individual we cross paths with". 

Mr Dutton said his office received the press release but it was neither reviewed nor cleared because the planned operation was routine. more.

Just suppose this may be true. Just how much are we paying these people to sit around and scream TERROR!© but do fuck all? I mean it's obviously too much to read routine emails. What else can't they be bothered doing?

Also, just how routine is a nationally publicised press release? Or how routine is it to be asked about your visa status in Australia? Or your passport? Or your citizenship? I've been here for 30 years in Sydney and it's never happened to me, and I would greatly protest if it ever did. So WTF have we got Australian Border Security even contemplating being out on the streets doing anything of the sort? 

I'd say both Dutton and Abbott are lying through their teeth. 

BTW the press release is still up on the website:
