#1 This is not a major change to Australian immigration laws. This is a relaxing of the strict detention policy on illegal immigrants. I assume the Howard government has concluded this is a battle no longer worth fighting with the constant drip-drip of Leftist 'this is cruel and inhuman'. These people can return to their home country anytime they like courtesy of the Australian taxpayer. Unfortunately we cannot expel people who claim asylum or claim persecution. It's contary to International Law(TM).
