Asylum Seekers in Australia

[dreamer_easy]

Good press release from the Dems, pointing out the need for an independent system for reviewing refugee applications. Australia's current administration (up for re-election next year, and likely to win yet again in the face of flabby opposition) is hostile to asylum seekers, and none too scrupulous about their human rights. Again and again they've refused sanctuary to people who've turned out to be genuine refugees, fleeing tyranny and torture. Someone impartial needs to check the government's work.
