Let's reverse the debate shall we?

Do you think that illegal entry into Australia should not be allowed?

How would you address that situation?

Where are these refugee camps with people waiting in ?

Better question, where is this cue people seem to be jumping?

Why didn't the navy turn any boats back as promised?

It is Manus Island, not Manis.

keep the LNP in for 8 more years and people will be wanting to leave Australia, not  try and come here for Asylum.

They are scattered right across Indonesia and surrounding regions

Here is an excerpt of what the UN has to say

....

Those who are intercepted when entering or leaving Indonesia irregularly are taken to immigration detention centres (IDCs) run by the Indonesian government.

At Belawan IDC, one of 13 such locations holding refugees and asylum seekers across the country, detainees share rooms that are locked from 10 at night to 10 in the morning daily. In the day time they come out to watch TV and take turns at communal cooking. Overcrowding is a constant problem. In April this year, violence broke out between two groups from Myanmar, resulting in eight deaths. The cells have been repaired since, but some inmates are still traumatized.

Those people have done the right thing and are being penalised while the invaders take precedence

My utopia died in '75. It's been downhill ever since:-)

Homogise the gene pool and raise/lower the living standard of everyone world wide/country wide?  China and russia have tried that path and it didnt work

Not to forget that the 10 quid pommie had identification and a visa and the sailors too.

And it was not a deluge, the 10 quid pommie was given a bit of a start then they were on their own, but it is not the same now.
