Once again our political leaders are letting us down by embarking on a fear
campaign in relation to asylum seekers.
While I am sure that most would prefer that the boats were not coming to
Australia this does not mean that the passengers on these should not be
treated fairly and with some respect.
Good policy may very well stop the boats from coming and this should be seen
as a good thing, especially if you are a legitimate refugee sitting in a
camp somewhere in the world and you have been pushed back in the queue
because of Australia’s boat policy.
