Gillard's Policy Kills more Boat people

[Bart]

True, but there was too much opposition to it at the time and the Pacific Solution went against international law

No it didn't.

which made what we were doing illegal in the eyes of the world.

No it didn't.

For those who remained in detention centres under the Coalition for years,

There were hardly any occupants in the detention centers, much less to having been thee for years.\Processing of asylum seekers was quick and efficient.

or were wrongly deported -

No they weren't.

we're now being forced to pay out massive amounts of compensation to hundreds of detained asylum seekers.

No we're not.

I'm not happy with this governments confusion on this issue either. Yes we can handle so many refugees, but it's becoming out of control. It's as though we've invited the rest of the planet to come and resettle in Australia and this is unsustainable - especially as we're getting ourselves further and further into debt just to maintain some sort of standard of living.

This is the Rudd & Gillard Brown policy.
