Minister sees red when government is caught out in grubby political attacks

[@lindenwatson846]

Senator Paterson is making merry hell for the government! Rattling their cage big time.

[@gregwaghorn8496]

He will go missing shortly, same with Babet, Rennick, Roberts. They are asking the questions on our behalf. It's against the GOVT. In America they will be all gone

[@gregwaghorn8496]

That minister Thomas lies about everything. He thinks there are no Jab deaths. We are conspiracy theorists. They need to be gone. Public justice needs to happen. They are destroying Australia

[@oz_bogan]

its an illusion nothing will be done

[@hairylittlewombat]

This government holds the people of Australia in absolute contempt.

[@jeffreyspalding9358]

Well done Senator. Unwrap the corrupt nature of the ALP abd their inthrall thugs.

Mr Watt is always covering for the government and his reply is when your government was in power, rather than just answer the question. Well done always Senator Paterson.

[@keithladd2365]

Minister Watts does not like to be interogated, does he? He was very adept in using pointed language when he was in opposition. Now, the shoe is on the other foot.

[@chezdee2405]

Minister Watt should be reprimanded for his grubby politicking! What a disgrace he is.

[@BenDover-zp4pv]

Makes my blood boil. I hate how they just justify themselves by making comments about what the Liberal government did when they were in... Ummmm we didn't have Over 100 refugee criminals living off the tax payer while the AUSTRALIAN Born Working Poor are living in their cars or tents. We didn't have refugee with no visas bashing old people in their homes because they were free from detention!! Bring Back Christmas Island and put them where they belong and not living like kings off our tax paying dollars. I seriously have no faith anymore. Bring back the times when people were brought to the town square and had their hands cut off for shop lifting!!! Australia is a Joke!!! My father was an immigrant and had to work for a living. Refugees are coming for All inclusive paid holidays, and bring your criminal history with you cause Albo and Giles just love you all!!

[@cameronjohnston5748]

Well done Sir. That minister is a grub and that will never change, no matter what politically correct language is used.

[@locomotion4118]

Minister Watt should perhaps reflect on why his party and the Department of Home Affairs are making themselves such easy targets for displaying their incompetence. Straightforward questions deserve straightforward answers!
