The article that you linked was interesting.
If the asylum seekers were true refugees, then why would they want to return to their homeland?
Well this has to take the cake, the goon show is saying that this is due to them. What a joke, what a bunch of dick witts.

Just shows how shallow they are.
Didn't they have to be dragged kicking and screaming down this path? The policy they shut down when they got into government.
Just shows a gutless government that basically attaches itself to any doner party policy, it may be a new form of parasitic policy government.
What a bloody disgrace.
Real refugees ??
Real refugees my ****.
That's exactly what it is.
No.That link worked. Did you do anything differently?
Economic opportunists
Labor and taxpayer money.Now we are bribing them to go home, I wonder how many will see it as a cash convertors?
Fly home, fly to Indonesia, come on a boat, get a bribe, fly home.
Many have secured cash to return home under reintegration packages of up to $3,000 to encourage asylum seekers to return to the countries they fled.
This labor Government will send us broke !
Cannot wait for the next one, hopefully labor and green free !!
Court rules Muslim girl must take swim class
A German court on Friday refused to allow a Muslim student to skip swimming lessons after she said she was uncomfortable being so close to bare-chested boys.
The 12-year-old, originally from Morocco, is going to school in Frankfurt. She had refused to take part in swimming lessons and had been marked down.
She filed to be given the right to skip the classes, her lawyer arguing that according to the Koran, she was not only forbidden from showing herself to boys but also from seeing boys topless.
An administrative court in Kassel, near Frankfurt, rejected her application.
It said in its ruling that she could wear the full-body swimsuit, known as the "burkini" already used by several girls at her school, which would be enough to guarantee her religious freedom.
The court added that the family had chosen to live in Germany where mixed swimming classes were the norm.
One of the aims of the school system was to promote integration and tolerance, the court added, citing a ruling by Germany's constitutional court.
The applicant would have to put up with the sight of her classmates in their swimming costumes, the court said.
For "operational and safety reasons" 134 people are to be transferred to Darwin for initial security, health and identity checks.
The remaining 15 people are to be transferred to Christmas Island.
A boat carrying 117 suspected asylum seekers has been found at the Cocos (Keeling) Islands.
Are we becoming inured to the constant arrivals? It's no longer news.

Hardly an endorsement of the government's current policy.
