Gentlemen,

I'm bowing out of this debate.
I've expressed my opinion for what
it's worth. As I stated earlier - this
is a complex problem - one that should
not be politicised. Hopefully it will
be resolved under the right leadership
sometime in the future or perhaps by
both parties working on the problem together
to reach a satisfactory solution, acceptable
to all. Now that would be something.
See you on other threads.

Lexi,

It was resolved under the right leadership. Labor just unresolved it.

With the 3rd boat in less than 2 weeks, they have 200 asylum seekers or 1/4 of the 4 year quota to send to Malaysia. In fact since they announced the arrangement 3 months ago, they have had nearly 800 asylum seeker come by boat. This is just another case of Labor pssng the taxpayer's money away.

Chris Bowen, the Malaysians saw you coming. There's one born every minute.

SM,

Do you realize that we're arguing over a piddly
amount of refugees when compared to the hundreds
of thousands that flock to Europe and much more
populous and poorer countries take them in.
Something's wrong with our mindset I'd say.

Lexi,

And it was only a piddling number of asylum seekers that drowned on Xmas Island. Europe has just had a refugee boat sink with hundreds lost, and loses hundreds more a year.

SM,

Tell us something we don't know.
But how many numbers do they take.
Pay attention - that was the point
being made.
