They did. The boats stopped coming here. If the European leaders had some spine in them, they'd follow Howard and Abbott and then people wouldn't be drowning, rapes and other atrocities wouldn't be happening and there wouldn't be train stations being overrun by thousands of economic migrants.

We should be proud of our refugee intake. We take in tens of thousands, while NZ takes less than 800 a year.

DNA keeps calling country shoppers from Nepal refugees. What a numpty!

In the years 1959, 1960, and 1961 following the 1959 Tibetan uprising and exile of the Dalai Lama, over 20,000 Tibetans migrated to Nepal. Since then many have emigrated to India or settled in refugee camps set up by the International Committee of the Red Cross, the Government of Nepal, the Swiss Government, Services for Technical Co-operation Switzerland, and Australian Refugees Committee.[5]

Those who arrived before 1989 were issued refugee ID cards and benefited from de facto economic integration; however, more recent arrivals have no legal status and cannot own property, businesses, vehicles, or be employed lawfully.

DNA, as the Nepalese civil war ended 10 years ago, exactly what is, apart from poverty, the basis for refugee status now? I mean,, citing events that happened 30 years ago just doesn't cut it, champ.
