    WTF Australia

    Aerial and naval border patrols will be increased to intercept people smugglers expected to exploit Malcolm Turnbull’s deal to ship offshore asylum seekers to the United States.

    The Prime Minister confirmed yesterday there would be a heightened presence on the high seas and greater use of intelligence services across the region ahead of the one-off deal with US President Barack Obama’s administration.

    An unknown number of people, predominately women and children, will be able to move to the US as part of its annual refugee intake.

    The decision will help clear some of the almost 1200 asylum seekers in offshore detention.

    Under the agreement, people who do not take up the option will face staying on Nauru or returning to their home country.

    I have an idea they'll come here before Trump takes office. Obamanation will speed things up before he leaves.

    Trump should bypass the Mainland and take them to Hawaii.

    The issue is more will see this free ride from Australia to America and try this route, and a huge mess of muslims is not too far away in Indonesia and Malaysia.
