The guvmint have come up with
a new and even more loony plan to prevent refugees touching Australian soil with their filthy persecuted feet: an exchange with the US for Cuban refugees held at Guantanamo Bay. I just heard 'em on the radio, deriding the Opposition for, uncharacteristically, opposing the plan, on the grounds that not going ahead with the swap will encourage people smugglers. Which only puts the cherry on the ice cream of the madness: what people smuggler wouldn't promise their victims a new home in the world's most prosperous country?
