I have to say: 12 months and 26,000 versus, under Operation Sovereign Borders, just one people-smuggling venture of 157 people—and all of those persons were transferred to offshore processing.

They have basically stated to the Australian people that if they are re-elected we will see a return to the chaos and the cost of the Rudd-Gillard-Rudd Labor governments when it comes to losing control of our borders.
