You cant name a single Reform policy on stopping the boats, but you’re happy to vote them in and hope for the best—then when questioned, you point at a different country like that somehow justifies it.

We should be holding ourselves to a higher standard, not saying, “Well, they’re worse!” That’s not policy. That’s playground politics.

If Reform’s pitch is “we’re slightly less heartless than France,” it’s no wonder you’ve got nothing solid to back them up with.

I believe Reform will introduce more stringent rules on immigration and not the mass, uncontrolled importation of young fighting age men we're importing right now. We'd be more like Australia, who seem to have got it right, putting their own citizens ahead of foreigners and only accepting people who can offer some kind of skill. Australia takes refugees, of course, but we already take three times the refugees that Australia take on our already overcrowded little island. Not sure why we're wrong but Australia is right.
