Today's unpaid political announcement
Today's topic is asylum seekers:
The poor bloody Iranian asylum seekers imprisoned in the desert at Baxter IDC are in a bad way, terrified of being deported to torture or death. Some are turning to desperate measures, such as hunger strikes.
Senate Inquiry - Howard did lie about children overboard. I don't know why Howard bothers to continue denying it, since the voters don't mind!
Things you can do! Donate to help asylum seekers temporarily released on Bridging Visas, who aren't allowed to work and can't use Medicare. Subscribe to the Australian Democrats' email bulletin on asylum seekers by sending an email to refugees@democrats.org.au. Call talkback radio and express your concern about the Iranians at Baxter - this press release has the facts and the numbers to call.
