Labour and human rights activists will once again stage a number of events and co-ordinated rallies in support of the rights of refugees this Tuesday, the 20 June (see here for Melbourne rally). Refugees are the victims of an economic and political system that creates war and oppression. Australian government repression of refugees and asylum seekers has been well documented before (see here and here). This week, the Australian Government agreed to settle out of court a multi-million dollar compensation package to hundreds of refugees rather than have the evidence of its barbarity exposed in court.
Bring them Here, Close the Camps, Sack Dutton 6pm, Tuesday June 20, State Library of Victoria
