read the text - yep makes sense.

Although australia's current laws regarding imigrants are also some of the strictest in the world. Hell people are even rejected if they weigh too much. So while you might believe you're the world's peacekeepers - no worries - you're defintiely not welcoming to people fleeing prosecution.

And that's not a bad thing.
The uk is the target of just about every bloody refugee that makes the europaen mainland. We're dumb enough to give them housing & money & medical care.
It's why they cross germany, france, holland, spain etc just to get to the uk.

At least with australia you're far enough away from other countries that you don't get that many trying to get to you. :-)
