Is there an answer to this issue? With a coastline so huge, and limited border protection, Australia is a prime target. We have set a precedent with immigrant migration in the past, accepting them into our community. Hell, we even had some Olympians who didn't want to leave!
The issue lies with their home country - the one they are fleeing from - and the opportunists who lie to them about safe passage to a welcoming country. And when they get here, we imprison them.
I dunno...aside from towing their unstable ship back into neutral waters (as they did with the 'children overboard' boat) and monitoring every mile of coastline, is there really an answer?
