OK Baygon, let's for the moment assume that your 80000 refugee number is achievable and is what we need to demonstrate our compassion.

So we increase our refugee intake from 20000 to 80000. Hurrah for us, warm inner-glow for all.

But then the eighty-thousand-and-first person decides to rock up in a borrowed boat. What do you do? Let 'em in because you're so compassionate? The eighty-thousand-and-second? The eighty-thousand-and-third? At what point, which number, do you say to the pooooor refugee, "No, we're full up but let me show you the delights of Nauru"?
