Boat 13 - 73 Passengers

by Simon 25. May 2009 04:31

Yet another boat load of Passengers is escorted to Christmas Island for processing.

The Navy has intercepted another boatload of asylum seekers near Ashmore Island off the north-west coast of Australia.

Home Affairs Minister Bob Debus says it is believed there are 73 passengers and four crew on board.

Notice the official numbers being pushed down by the use of the "Crew" classification... Can this government help but run some line of spin?
