Gah! Look at all the politics I've been posting. It's because of my renewed interest sparked by the election, of course. I must try to cut down, though, it's knackering. Here's some recent info on the refugee situation in Australia. (I maintain a couple of Web pages on this issue if you'd like more info.)

The Law Council of Australia is setting up a working group to explore overhauling Australia's migration laws, in particular the government's right to imprison innocent people indefinitely. (Justice Kirby recently spoke on the role of judges in preventing the government from having uncontrolled power. A lot of Australians don't seem to realise that winning an election does not mean Mr Howard can do anything he likes.)

Baxter Detention Centre reaches boiling point - media release from Project Safecom.
