‘Ring of steel’ to encircle Australia
PM Turnbull announced… the biggest ever peacetime maritime operation in Australia’s northern waters … a ‘ring of steel’ to repel people smuggling operations.

Wake up Australia! Time to vote out as many of the Alp as possible. Pauline Hanson who it seems is hated by all the media and most of the pollies is the only one taht is doing anything to try and stop the influx of people to this country that hate us and will never assimilate. Just wake Up we have to doing something radical. get rid of the tired old Communist lead ALP/Greens and the ineffective Liberal Party. The three partys have not done one thing to assist Australia. Time to drain the swamp.
