Go get 'em Bob! This statement, Senator Carr has raised Australia's concerns with the Malaysian government about Senator Xenophon's detention, is sure to frighten the pants off Malaysian authorities. As blundering Bob irritatingly huffed and puffed on television last night it seems the Malaysians don't realise just how important Bob is on the UN Security Council. GC.Ed.
The Australian senator ordered to be deported by Malaysia as a ''security risk'' previously acted as an emissary for Malaysia's opposition leader, Anwar Ibrahim, carrying a warning letter to the federal government.
The South Australian senator Nick Xenophon was detained at Kuala Lumpur airport on Saturday after being told there was a technical hitch with his passport and was then escorted to a holding cells area, although he was not put in a cell.

Carr's wife is Malaysian and she is financed by the Australian taxpayer to live a life of style & comfort, she needs to use her enormous influence to get a better outcome and at least give the Australian taxpayer some value for money

I can't recall either Sen Zenophon or Sen Carr leaping to the defence of a properly elected member of the Dutch Parliament, Geert Wilders. As I recall, neither leapt to his defence in being frustrated in obtaining a visa to speak here last year. More of the same leftard BS. We can interfere in another country's domestic politics, but God help anyone else who tries it on here.

Totally agree. What does that do to the marveellous policy Gillard was trying to set up with Malaysia re asylum seekers? Start with East Timor then Malaysia, then try Nauru and Manus without any TPVs Useless woman. So smart she thinks, yet so simple. And Carr is nothing but a big mouth with nothing up top.

Even notwithstanding Malaysia's and the rest of the ASEAN states' various petty dictators' long standing contempt for such of Australia's Maoist Left's morons as, for example, inspired Harry Lee's "Asia's poor white trash" projection - that the loathsome and fearsome RecidivistjuLiar showed her own bogan-based ignorance and/or contempt for increasingly islamist Malaysis's syariah law preventing khalwat by taking her bludger beard with her on an official visit, impressed that gang even less than has the traitors Whitlam's through KRudd's forty years of sucking up to and doing the bidding of the much more loathed and feared self-perpetuating Peking based pack of perilously-pernicious predators that so grandiosely calls itself "china."
Too bad every other of Nicholas Xenophou's party wasn't also shown the cells -- and the deportation order!
God knows they're all enemies of our state, too!
