Situation for imprisoned refugees continues to deteriorate

This week saw the release of another damning report on the treatment of detained refugees in the concentration camp on Nauru. The Australian Government, as usual, denied all evidence, and promised to continue the harsh approach regardless of the costs to the people themselves. Resistance and opposition to these policies continues, whether by refugee activists or the refugees themselves. Health workers have now won the right to speak out. In the first week end of November, pro refugee rallies will occur in all major cities of Australia, see here for Melbourne event.
