‘Shock news for the government’: Asylum seeker boat arrives in Western Australia

Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell says there was “shock news for the government” on Friday following the arrival of an asylum seeker boat in the north of Western Australia. Mr Clennell said there had been reports there might have been a “second arrival”. “My understanding is the second group of people found about an hour after the first is from the same boat,” Mr Clennell said. “Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was caught on the hop on Friday when asked about their arrival. The Prime Minister said the government has “policies in place” to ensure that “they’re dealt with”.
