"On illegal immigration, we are often berated by some to be "more compassionate" ie accept those who come here with ope n arms"

Progressives like me are happy with the system currently in place. There is no 'open' sign for illegals. We are intercepting them & processing them though the 'system'. While they may not be citizens, they should be afforded the process of natural justice.
People running certain agendas are blowing the boat people issue way out of all proportion. There is no flood. There is no avalanche. There is no swarm of refugees about to steal your jobs or move into the house next door.
Crikey if people are throwing tantrums over this, god help us when a real problem surfaces...
