ALP's big juicy carrot for Torres Strait's

[mellie]

PRIME Minister Julia Gillard says her government will respectfully consider the Torres Strait's request for self-government.

Queensland Premier Anna Bligh wrote to Ms Gillard after Torres Strait leaders raised their concerns during a community Cabinet meeting in August.

Ms Bligh said she understood their wanting to break away from Queensland to become a territory, but raised concerns about who would pay for services.

Thats one way of relinquishing oneself of responsibility this and appealing to a dejected and disadvantaged vote-base at the same time.

Carrots for votes.

Does she think they are monkeys?

This and as stupid as she is?

It looks as though she's attempting to close the gap once and for all...could this become our number 1 asylum shopper stop-over destination?

Could this be where they have designs on expanding our processing of illegally arrived?
