    This is a fraud...

    At least its origination is. A quick Google shows he never said those words (he's not PM anymore), thirdly the source is at best, confused. It looks like this has been borrowed from elsewhere and then forwarded on by someone wanting to use the words for their own ends.

    Google News shows the following, from 30th January 08.

    http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,23129062-2,00.html


    But it's not clear this originally came from the source suggested in the article because it also appears at the following website, claiming to have been posted after 9/11, with of course an American slant.

    'What's an American'?

    http://www.breakthechain.org/exclusives/beamerican.html

    Article says,

    Boring racist chainmail guff. I'd rather get the one saying that if I dont forward it on ill get 7 years bad luck.

    Will someone in the know email this to the main political parties in this country he is only saying what all right minded non political non muslims are thinking if a party had the balls to put this in its manifesto they would walk in to power , but I suspect they wont want to upset the MINORITY of do gooders .

    Why don't you email it to them?

    A quick search online will give you the contact email addresses.

    I'm always wary

    of any email or posting of a quote that does not include a link to the source.

    Had an anti-Barack Obama one a couple of months ago, 1 quick search showed the allegations in it to be false.

    RE: "Fraud" or not and irrespective of it's source....

    The problem in my view is that people should stop aspiring to be anything other than decent human beings. I have no time for small minded nationalism, a belief that, to borrow a quote, "my country is better than yours just cos I happened to drop out of my mothers pussy on it".

    To make it worse those spouting this nationalistic nonsense are often the first to treat people of other countries in an entirely contradictory manner as they demand that those coming to live in their country should behave. One rule for us, one rule for everyone else.

    That, needless to say, does not excuse people of any background in the UK in treating others as they would not like to be treated themselves. Living in a supposedly 'country with Christian values' you'd have thought this would be not only blindingly obvious, but something people were brought up to not only believe in, but act out.

    So you've changed from calling it "racism" to "nationalistic nonsense."

    </p>

    Both reactions that promote segregation. People like you are the reason the BNP exist. You might as well vote for them.</p>

    I was only interested in peoples reactions to the STATEMENT........ who said it, when they said it and if it is an exact quote .......... doesnt particulary interest me...... Now the CONTENT of the statement did.... but few people mentioned that......... like I said, uncomfortable stuff for some people.

    ,,,, as for racism ?!? its the normal lazy off handed response we get now - although, Acky i would never imply that of you - you are obviously thorough and passionate about your views - i just dont buy into them

    Well I think if you are going to post and claim it comes from a particular source (in this case the Prime Minister of Australia), then it is rather important whether it did originate from there or not, and whether it is quoted correctly or not.

    I've got an idea.

    </p>

    Why don't you pretend tagli telli wrote it himself and take it from there? See if you have anything to say about the actual content, which is what he keeps telling you is all that was important to him.</p>

    Well the content

    Seems a complete rant - which was why I was wary of the source to start with.

    Some interesting points but put forward in a very vitrolic and ranting manner. I can almost see the guy spitting as he wrote it.


    And all he said in the original post was "If only", thereby implying if only other leaders would follow his example....being that it didn't originate from the PM tends to sort of say - what point was he actually trying to make?

    It seems he was just desperate for your approval Eastie

    I think he's satisfied now.

    I think he was referring to the fact that Eastie departed from his pedantism and read the statement.

    It's just boring mate

    We've had this kind of ***** time and again on here and you start to lose the will to live.

    "Look here! I've found another article that bashes Muslims, who agrees with it, come one, COME ON."

    The first thing that comes into your head is '**** off'. The post you've made is in a very unhelpful, inflamatory tone. In short, it's a rant and as such it's not worth anyone's time or effort.
