The issue isn't people coming to Australia.
The issue is whether boaties should jump the queue. Should boaties be given priority over those waiting in camps?
Secondly what is wrong with India and Indonesia. Both are safe countries yet people get on leaky boats to come here.
SHY and her sort need to stop undermining the government. Boat arrivals are just the tip of the iceberg. Boat arrivals are the "lucky ones", they have money to pay smugglers. We have no idea if they are the most persecuted. In fact it seems that many boat arrivals are actually economic migrants.
Economic migrants come to Australia via a points system not by leaky boats.
I have no problem with Australia increasing it's intake with the proviso that any welfare requirements come from the current welfare pool and not from borrowing or further taxation. I fully support Scott Morrison because the Labor years have shown us that boats lead to death at a massive financial cost to Australia.
Sadly we all know that the pathetic Senator Young would send out vessels to offshore ports to pick her queue jumpers up.
Do not confuse genuine humanitarian intake with bleeding hearts lawyers and Senators who want to facilitate illegal smuggling and do so by playing cards such as "the number of children on board".
Perhaps Australia needs a referendum on how many people we take. The people voted to stop boats not the humanitarian intake yet the senator continues to undermine the people.
