My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to her statement 12 months ago that the Rudd government had lost its way. I remind her that in the last year 89 asylum seeker boats have arrived, carrying 4,900 asylum seekers. There are now 6,700 people in detention centres. Her East Timor solution has been abandoned. Her Manus Island plan has stalled and the Malaysian people swap is yet to materialise. Can the Prime Minister understand why Australia's forgotten families feel that the country has gone from bad to worse?
