The opposition Labor Party is having its annual National Conference in Sydney at the moment and the debate today on its asylum seeker policy got lots of media attention. The guy speaking in the panorama is the new Labor leader Mark Latham - on whose charisma factor Labor is pinning its faint hopes in the next election. The debate ended with the Conference confirming the Shadow Cabinet's refugee line -- which is much like the Government's except Labor says it will stop locking up children in detention camps and it will close down the offshore camps - which Australia is paying Pacific nations like Nauru to run.
