Yes. It's not Club Med

Christmas Island is Club Med compared to that refugee camp.

Would you like to quit before embarrassing yourself further, or would you like me to grab you a shovel?

Grow up... Cheesy

Christmas Island is Club Med compared to that refugee camp. Detainees get a solid roof over their head, all the food they could want, made by chefs. They get internet and phone access, TV, computer games and classrooms for their kids. They have clean running water and toilets. They have top-notch medical care and facilities. None of this exists in a hastily-constructed temporary refugee camp. Oh and one other thing - no one forced them to come even after they knew they'd end up there if they survived the voyage!!!

Have fun finding sources for all of that.

I eagerly await where you got this information.

Oh, almost forgot - there's no roving death squads raiding the Christmas Island detention centre and no need for soldiers to guard the centre!!!

If you believe that there are roving death squads in refugee camps, wouldn't it stand to reason that you'd understand why asylum seekers make that dangerous journey to seek asylum Australia? And, maybe, why they should?

Yet these people coming by boat aren't coming from refugee camps. They're coming from their homes after paying tens of thousands of dollars to get a seat on those boats. Real refugees don't have the means to do that.

Asylum seekers on Christmas Island are more depressed, scared and anxious than those being housed in the world's second-largest refugee camp, says Greens senator Sarah Hanson-Young.

The dumb mole should stop enticing the country shopping illegal’s to pay people smugglers and corrupt Indo police in a bid to get here.

Economic status does not change the legitimacy of a claim to asylum.

Also still looking for those sources?

Thus killing those Canaanite babies while they were still innocent, was a particularly merciful act

It does change whether or not they can afford to pay people smugglers... Grin

Whether that's true or not, (i.e. even as a 'hypothetical') according to your own statements on the matter, they are doing the right and logical thing... To avoid 'death squads in refugee camps'.
