What a fucking hopeless govt. How long before someone is killed?

Yay! Bring back the Pacific (non)Solution! Waste $1.2Bn and still have just as many asylum seekers arrive on Australian soil.

And IQ says he has a B.Eng and an MBA. Pure bullshit, his logic, grammar and spelling would barely suffice to graduate from primary school. Any “political” posts he makes are pure Lib talking points.

No one believes your lies and spin

Sorry old chum, the Pacific Solution was a bookkeeping sleight of hand, no more than that and the UNHCR figures bear that out. You are a cretin unable to do more than repeat Lib talking points.

He can't.

Now they are burning down their place of residence because they have been rejected as asylum seekers.

New report shows Australia continues to receive only 2 per cent of industrialized world’s asylum claims

28 March 2011: UNHCR has released a new report showing that an estimated 358,800 people fled persecution in their homelands to seek asylum in industrialized countries during 2010.

Overall, there was a five per cent decrease in the total number of asylum claims made in the 44 industrialized countries covered by the review, compared to the slightly higher number of 378,000 in each of 2008 and 2009.

However, as in previous years, the report highlights a complex picture, with significant variations in claims received between various countries, and within different regions around the world.

Australia received 8,250 claims in 2010 compared to 6,210 in 2009 – a 33 per cent increase that was broadly consistent with increases in countries such as Belgium (16 per cent), Denmark (30 per cent), France (13 per cent), Germany (49 per cent), Sweden (32 per cent), and the United States (13 per cent).

Decreases were seen in countries such as Austria (30 per cent), Greece (36 per cent), Italy (53 per cent), Norway (42 per cent), and the United Kingdom (28 per cent) which demonstrates the variations within regions themselves.

Despite the increase, the total number of claims made in Australia remains well below levels seen in many other countries, and represents only 2 per cent of total applications for asylum in the industrialized world. Claims made in Australia in 2010 are around a third lower than in 2001, broadly in line with the global decline over the last decade.

In 2010, the largest destination countries for asylum-seekers were the United States (55,500 claims), France (47,800), Germany (41,300), Sweden (31,800), and Canada (23,200).

“The relatively small number of people coming to Australia – coming largely from the most troubled and conflict-ridden regions of the world – again demonstrates the vital importance and relevance of the Refugee Convention and asylum as the principal means of protecting people who are fleeing persecution and serious human rights violations” UNHCR Regional Representative Richard Towle said today.

What does that prove? Were you an asylum seeker and if so from which War or Upheaval?

Australia has LOTS of space, sure, but if we set up tents out in the Simpson Desert, who would go there but the Arabs and other Asylum seekers? Since they want to do the same as they were used to, they could start again out there in the desert. We even have camels out there.
