Sri Lanka offers ‘help’ with asylum-seekers

the tamils on the boat which is the subject of current interest, sailed from india - ie they are country shopping. it might be a bit hard to send them back to india in an orange lifeboat - but if our good friends from sri lanka are happy to take them back, then a chartered air flight to sri lanka would be a good idea.
wow - the greens will be jumping up and down, if scotty sends them back to sri lanka
