      @alexanderwhite @joshgnosis OK. And is that a capped service (say 10K a year) or unlimited?

      @alexanderwhite @joshgnosis and do you provide a ferry between Malaysia and Indonesia for all the refugees lured by the ferry to Australia?

          @BernardKeane @alexanderwhite @joshgnosis those who favour turn backs should be honest about why they do. Saving lives doesn't cut it.

          @Lizzie_OShea @alexanderwhite @joshgnosis yes but if say a policy motivated by racism saves lives, should it be abandoned?

          @BernardKeane @joshgnosis if the objective is to stop drowning, then why not? What's the difference bw a ferry and a plane?

          @alexanderwhite @joshgnosis so where does our ferry service end? One for Africa to Italy? If not, why not? You can't be selective.

          @alexanderwhite @BernardKeane stop people drowning and take people who may not be able to afford thousands to pay a people smuggler.

          @Gay_Alcorn why do you assume the latter are somehow "better" refugees, or that there are lots of viable alts to boats?

          @profsarahj they are not "better" refugees, but the ability to pay people smugglers should not determine who gets in on humanitarian grounds

          @profsarahj there are limited places; wealth should not be a determining factor.

          @BernardKeane @alexanderwhite @joshgnosis this reasoning is lame. At the moment, people who would 'never be settled' are being settled.
