An early Xmas present for asylum seekers?

Christmas Island detention center has been re-opened by the existing coalition govt of OZ. They were forced to do this of course by the more compassionate labor govt and independent members of parliament.

of course the coalition PM is banging his drum loudly to ensure that he WAS forced to open it and it will be with dire consequences!!

there is an incoming election in April this year of course!

What a shame. Christmas Island sounds like a lovely place along with it's capital, Flying fish cove. Couldn't they do it somewhere horrible to put them off?
