My question is to the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship, Senator Chris Evans. Given that we have now seen more than 2,300 people jump on a boat—risking their lives—to try and gain asylum, the government cave in and give special deals to people who have effectively hijacked an Australian ship, riots at the overflowing Christmas Island detention centre, and more boats on the way, will the minister now finally concede that Labor’s border protection policies must be changed?
