Labor Party not 'as tough' as it should be on boat arrivals
Independent Senator Jacqui Lambie says the Labor Party hasn’t been as tough as it should be when it comes to boat arrivals. “I hope those people in Nauru are going to sent back to their own countries and if their own countries don’t want them they’re going to be sent to another country,” Ms Lambie told Sky News Australia. “Because you can’t just keep them in Nauru and wait for six months and then bring them in under the darkness of night and chuck them in Melbourne or Sydney or somewhere." She said the government hasn't been "out there warning people enough". “We have a great system in Home Affairs where they can send out signals all over phones all over the world and target certain areas to make sure that people are getting these messages.”
