it gets better - 5 boats turned back - hero sc, page-2

Good on Scott Morrison for taking the hard line...these people quite obviously ARE NOT asylum seekers in the true sense, they are just queue jumping to seek a new life in a country that offers freebies!

One man named Yusuf identified himself as a Sudanese asylum seeker, and says he and his wife paid $6,000 to travel from Indonesia to Australia.

It would have been a darn sight cheaper to book a seat on Jetstar from Indonesia to Perth wouldn't it? Oh, except they would probably not be accepted that way and would have to join the queue.

And the Greens and Labor are still frothing at the mouth about the Coalition's success in stopping this people trafficking that they so obviously had no interest in stopping.
