Not all, a lot were picked up and sent to offshore detention centres in Papua New Guinea and Nauru. The main plank of the policy was anyone who arrived by boat would never be resettled in Australia, even if they are found to be a genuine refugee. This stopped them.

I presume they have “human rights” in Australia despite not being in the ECHR…..

You miss the point that Cherie was making and I was replying to. It had nothing to do with the Australian detention center point. It was about boats arriving, and being turned around. 

People got to Australia on boats capable of making it to Australia, hence they got there. They could then be turned around on the boats they arrived in, on the assumption they could return to where the started from. 

That's different to people leaving France on a dinghy that can't make it here, and being collected by our border force taxi service. Nobody is sending them back to sea on a dinghy that'll bobble about in the channel before failing. If the boat managed to make it here undamaged, so could make it back, that's a different story.

Because they can't do them?

Portsea Island.

Or the Isle of Wight.

Isle of Wight and Ports are already full of inbreds and criminals so be too difficult to tell them apart from the locals.

Am not sure why that's so amusing @tdmickey3. If it was Elon musk funding this stuff to the degree that Larry Ellison is, it would be global news.

I meant publically. It's obviously part of a big behind the scenes move pushed by Larry Ellison so he can enrich his tech oracle and the rest of his tech empire. Along with the devil himself Blair of course.

I suggest you look how much Larry Ellison has given the Tony Blair foundation and how much it has changed since his money arrived.
