John Ellison Davies

Australia's Refugee Disgrace (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Some things must be said. Refugees are dying because Australian politicians lack the courage to do the right thing.
I am printing here the text of two articles that I wrote three years ago. (No Australian newspaper would publish them.) The situation has not improved in three years. With the election of a new and even less compassionate government the situation is likely to get worse.
