A place to discuss aquaponics

They could just grow enough fish and veggies that they spend all their time harvesting and sending to market to pay for all their jail expenses.

I question your numbers,,,
Also,,,since when are Illegal fishermen and refugees the same thing?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but illegal fishermen , get NO money,,have their boats burnt, catch seized and are either gaoled or sent backhome ( or a combination of the two). I TOTALLY agree with this policy.

Refugees are assessed according to governement protocal,,held until situation is confirmed and then either sent back or accepted under our refugee immigration policy.

If accepted under the refugee immigration policy,,they would recieve some initial help to get started but after that , they would be only entitled to the standard "job search allowance".
And that is NOWHERE near $118,000 per annum.

Pensioners getting $1012 per month should be thankfull,,,my retired father gets ZERO,,,when I retire I will get ZERO>
