It only took a month, but Tony Abbot (or probably one of his staff members offered me this response to my open letter.
John
Thank you for taking the time to email the Leader of the Opposition, the Hon Tony Abbott MP.
It is very important that we protect our boarders.
Since the election of the Rudd Government, we have seen more than 70 boats and 3,000 individuals arrive illegally in our waters. The Rudd government has softened our boarder protection policies and people smugglers are seeing Australia as a soft target.
A Coalition government would restore confidence in Australia’s boarder protection system and introduce a suite of strong measures which would discourage people smugglers from risking lives of vulnerable people.
If you would like to receive regular updates from our office, please sign up to our e-news updates by visiting http://www.tonyabbott.com.au/.
Thank you again for taking the time to pass on your thoughts on this important issue.
Tony Abbot MHR
