That's true. Places like Villawood are terrible and there needs to be some action there. Personally, I'm thinking of booking myself into the one up north after it's done though. Seems like it'll be pretty nice.
One thing I'd say about the illegal fishermen is that from some perspectives, the crime they're committing is worse than overstaying a visa. They are litterally stealing from the Australian fishermen who are trying to earn a living under often very difficult circumstances.
My father is married to a Phillipina and her nephew comes over most xmas's and every time he comes, my father has to put down $10k against him overstaying his visa. I was surprised when I learned that. Apparently people from the Phillipines in particular are very good at missing their planes.
We don't need more islanders. The ones we have cause enough trouble. I'd go along with the Sudanese though. They're generally very good athletes. Might help out with basketball too.
