Possibly? Yes or no? Do you believe the rate of boat people will increase or not?

I beleive your argument that the detention centres are not up to the quality they should be is a direct contradiction of your previous stance... so it's alright if we hold them as long as the jail is more like a hotel? It would not matter if we made Woomera into a 5 star palace... they are still in detention, and it would not be long until your left-wing kinfolk would be protesting that it isn't enough.

How do you know that this man is innocent of any previous crime? Because he said so? Fair enough then, be it far from me to question the honesty of a man trying to hide from immigration officials. If we stop one murderer from gaining entry by holding 1000 people in these centres, then I believe the 'system' has worked.

I don't know what you were trying to say with the Martyn Bryant analogy, so I can't really comment on that.

Here's another major difference in our opinions: You say we cannot use the risk of a future crime being committed by any of these people as a reason to stop them entering. I say that is definately a reason for denying entry. If there is any reasonable chance of a crime being committed on the persons or property of an Australian citizen by one of these people then we cannot grant them entry. The people here are citizens by birthright or have worked hard to gain citizenship legally and we cannot compromise their trust and safety by letting people in who we have little information about.

How do Britain deal with their illegal immigrants?
