Doctors in Australia, New Zealand and internationally are calling the situation on #Nauru a humanitarian emergency - when will @ScottMorrisonMP heed their words and get #KidsOffNauru

We have been shamed by our government. We should never have let them con us into this grotesque mistreatment of innocent people. Let's identify the real criminals: (NOT the asylum seekers) John Howard Philip Ruddock Julia Gillard Kevin Rudd Tony Abbott Peter Dutton Scott Morrison

Experts say #refugees on Nauru are among the most traumatised they have ever seen, even more so than people in war zones or refugee camps around the world - compelling new report by @OzRefugeeCounc & @ASRC1 refugeecouncil.org.au/wp-content/upl…

We say thank you on behalf of Australians @ICORN_ORG and @JanetGalbraith5 for supporting @EatenFish to find refuge & start a new life in safety in Europe. We just wish Ali could have become Australian five years ago. Our loss is his gain icorn.org/article/manus-…

Landowners still blocking the road. They won’t allow IHMS and JDA staff to come in. We are now hostages of landowners. There is no food and medicine here and if they continue it will be a critical situation. ABF should find a solution urgently.#Manus

A few poisonous people have sent messages suggesting that the terrorist attack in Melbourne today was the work of refugees. They should remember that: - Refugees are under-represented in crime figures - attacking a religion is likely to radicalise a few of its adherents

Troubled about refugees? Want some facts? Dutton & Turnbull are lying to you: emailempathy.com/2017/12/14/myt… And their claim to be worried about people drowning in their attempt to reach safety? This document from the parliament website shows it's a lie: aph.gov.au/About_Parliame…

Families around the world are getting together for Christmas 🎄 But we manus refugees,have LOST, the ability to see our families I haven’t had a punch in the arm by my brother, a hug by uncle, a kiss from my mum for over 4 years😢😢 We only have love to share ❤ #ManusSOS

Read this article and think: Is this really what Australia is about? Even if you disagree with me about everything, this is terrible: Border Force tells Nauru refugees to separate from family if they want to settle in US theguardian.com/world/2017/dec…

How many years do you want to humiliate people by making them wait for hours to get any food? This photo shows East Lorengau camp today. Yesterday people were in a long line for 7 hours, only half got food. Today the others have been waiting again all day, still waiting.#Manus

Will @PeterDutton_MP have the decency to answer these simple questions?

Hey @PeterDutton_MP -If people have to queue 7 + hours for a meal, would you say the place is ready for habitation? -Would you be willing to queue 7 hours for a meal at Parliament House? -Do you dare answer these simple questions?

Just a reminder that on December 4th the #Turnbull Gov blocked a motion for #NZ to take 150 #refugees from #Manus because this goverment wants to continue to persecute these men for not drowning at sea, out of hope it will win them votes. Pure f***ken evil is what i call that.

Peter Dutton wanted more powers to detain and deport people for innocent mistakes and minor offences. The Greens, and the Senate, said no.

A 28 year-old Rohingyan refugee was injured in a motorbike accident on Nauru at 7.00am today, Sat 18 Nov. He needs urgent surgery: he was vomiting blood and bleeding from his right ear before he fell unconscious. Nauru is not equipped to perform the brain surgery needed.

Why was @BehrouzBoochani arrested? Such a travesty of justice and rights of press freedom.#evacuatenow #ManusIsland amp.theguardian.com/australia-news…

Have you ever been on psychotropic medication for your mental health? Now imagine having to go cold turkey today, that's what's happened to dozens of men today whose entire psychiatric medication in #Manus prison has ended This is a travesty & places these men's lives at risk
