Is it loving to stop the boats?

Watch and/or listen to this panel discussion on how we might treat asylum seekers compassionately
Topics

The government has decided to stop the boats carrying asylum seekers to Australia. There are protests, news articles and everyone has an opinion.

How do we classify these people who are coming across the oceans to come to Australia? How do we frame our response: is this a safety issue, a matter of border control or a humanitarian response? There are passionate arguments on both sides of the discussion.

Come along to hear this balanced conversation with panellists who come with different experiences with this topic.
