yes it is an ugly word - precisely because detention centres are ugly concepts
now - let's straighten your little ship up here for a start
you throw around the term - 'illegal' when referring to refugees landing in Oz
now listen up ----------- they are not 'illegal' - they haven't been illegal for a long time -
your little world 'illegal' comes from populist buffoons like Donald Trump -
so firstly - before you dig large holes -------- get your head around refugee law - international laws and agreements that Australia has signed up to =
begin here, but I suggest that you research yourself
and when you do learn what is illegal and what is not - share it with your other bonehead brigade members in FNQ - who also bandied about the word 'illegal' as all good parrots of trumpism do --- in their ignorance
''The fact is that some refugees do not want to stay in the first safe country they reach, nor are they under any legal obligation to do so.''
