It's somewhat of a semantic point, but I think you'll find it can still be illegal (depending upon the relevant countries laws), merely that the person has immunity from prosecution based on the fact that they are asylum seekers.

Anyway, enough of this nonsense. Who cares whether I am right or not, I certainly don't.

You are wrong international law has primacy over domestic law in this instance.

The fact that they have immunity from prosecution flows from the fact that it is recognised they have a complete defence to immigration offences if they have a valid asylum claim.

We have repeated this point ad nauseum in this thread and others because people still aren't listening.

Apologies in advance but I tend to research this stuff first ;).

which is literally why if we insist that because we passed a law to making coming here illegal would mean that if we tried to enforce that law crosses the line and breaking International Law.

Thats the awkward truth confronting the small boats and anti-refugee stance and why what the Govt says is bullshit because they know what that would do to our already diminished place on the world stage. It all boils down to the mind set that they have.
