tens of thousands have been flying in and nobody cares at all ?
20 people on a boat and the world is going to end.
"Tens of thousands" of illegal immigrants flying into Australia would atleast
have not been bringing in flora and fauna through customs that would go on to destroy our wildlife and fragile ecosystem. 20 people on a boat making it to mainland Australia would step off the vessel and head straight to the nearest civilisation. Meanwhile, whatever they brought on their shoes and any other exotic viruses/contaminants are going to infect the ecosystem (even in a small way). Another 100 boats making it to shore with illegals not going through proper channels will make a greater impact on the environment.
Therefore, illegal boat arrivals tend to make a threat to our ecosystem, even though the illegal boat arrivals of asylum seekers might have a better case to make as refugees than those that come by plane in the thousands.
You must live under a rock?
Have you ever watched Australian Border Security?
Every show will show you Asians of some kind ... Vietnamese, Cambodian, Chinese, Thai & Indians as well as people from the Middle East bringing suitcases full of prohibited exotic fruits, food & animal products ..... every phukkin show.
They all tick "no" on the declaration forms & when caught go the no english, no understand or get really angry.
As a customs officer said to one of these people with over 20kg of foodstuffs ..."why did you bring so much food... don't you think we have food here in Australia?".
