overstayers....

the Jumbo era has been here for years. I read that there are many 1000s who fly in and "disappear".. into the kitchens, building sites, orchards, wherever. 'Agents', lower wages and all.

Boaties get the publicity, so its an upfront issue. And it doesnt seem like any goverment in any country can effectively deal with it.
Remember, the UNHCR says there are about 50 million out there on the move, for one reason or another.

Nice to see the 'Minister of No Consequence' getting a touch up the other day...problem with these political apparatchiks (?) its all like water of a ducks back to them.
Their concrete brains have set. and we the people have to suffer for it.

We need more Arab spring in our step.
