I don’t think I exaggerated your position on asylum seekers at all. But I do feel as though (mildly) misrepresented me by labelling my views as << hardline >>.
My position of wanting to double our intake of refugees, increase our international aid to at least 0.7% of GDP and direct it at causal factors of refugeeism, and to uphold strong border protection and thus bring an end to onshore asylum seeking and all the misery and complications associated with it, is hardly hardline!
But I know we’ll never agree on this issue.
