Rally: let the refugees into Australia
5:30 pm Friday 13 November
Petrie Plaza (near the merry-go-round), Civic
Instead of bringing refugees picked up by an Australian Customs ship to Australia, the Government has tried for four weeks to force them to get off in Indonesia. They had tried to come to Australia by boat from Indonesia because they had been left to rot in appalling conditions there. In Indonesia, the United Nations refugee organisation had already concluded that they were in fact refugees.
Rally to send a message to the Government: whether they stay on the Customs ship or not, the refugees should be brought to Australia immediately.
