But assylum seekers? How can anybody (Hasbeen included) know they are "criminals" until they have been assessed/processed according to our laws. I think the stats show that the vast majority of assylum seekers (boat people for the sake of it) have been shown to be genuine refugees anyway - not criminals at all.
On another point, it seems Abbott has been given access to independent expert and department advice that the Malaysian solution is good, better than Nauru, and will "stop the boats". It appears Abbott just wants 'the power' more than his droning concern for stopping the boats. Indeed, according to Abbott, the experts are again wrong, as too the departments he always seems to alienate.
Personally, I can't see how Nauru will stop more boats than the Malaysian option. Nor can I see how processing "boat people" on the Mainland will stop the boats either. In fact, I think the Green's solution would encourage more boats to take the dangerous voyage and as a consequence, more lives would be at risk.
