The fault is not with our government precisely.

It should be illegal to so run a country that people feel a need to leave in such manner.

Perhaps punishable by reduction to serfdom.

Perhaps Fotis would just like all comment opposed to his ideals doused as it was in the Socialist and now bankrupt eastern and Greek socialist Republics.

INdividual you ask

Runner,
Please explain? ? Are you saying Australians are at fault ? I was led to believe that Afghans boarded a boat to try & get into Australia by the back door ?

I am saying that the change in policy by Labour definitely encouraged more boats to make the journey.

Geezzz....

Like the 2 kids suing Australia (us for goodness sake?) for being sad and being traumatised by the trip on the boast. Now that is somehow Australia's fault?

Sue their damn parents!

An yet this simple fact is missed by the multiculturalists, the boat people engagers, the cryers of racism and xenophobia.

Lookk kiddies...this country has every right to be what it is in terms of culture and approach to life and we spend far far too much time worrying about those who come here than about preserving it as the place they escaped to.

Tides turning around the world and most are waking up to that very fact

There's nothing wrong with being a country with an identity and a culture which is unique and to preserved. And you black armband historians can go to hell

These people need to come here and assimilate into what we got

Or piss off.
