The simple reality is that an increasing number of asylum boats are coming to this country and the more that come; the more the issue is going to make headlines. The latest debate is over whether asylum policies of the past should make a comeback. We sent Jeanette Francis to find out more. The Feed airs weeknights at 19:30 on SBS 2.
