Lascivious Sloth posted:The only flight company that can fly to Nauru (Our airline).. another monopolised and failed company. it is only, like most of the island, living off the curtails of the Australian governments immigration policy. the last 3 weeks 2 young adults (1 male Iranian, and 1 Somali woman who had been through hell and raped many times escaping her conflict zone) self immolated rather than face the poo poo conditions of Nauru: This needs more attention, because if we're going to talk about Nauru we need to have a little chat about how hosed up the refugee situation is in Australia: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-05-02/refugee-set-himself-on-fire-after-unhcr-meeting:-asylum-seekers/7377396 http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-05-02/omid-masoumali-without-proper-medical-care-for-hours,-says-wife/7374884 And my favourite moment in the whole poo poo-show, our Immigration Minister Peter Dutton's comments that it was all the fault of people who criticise the current system: http://theconversation.com/self-immolation-incidents-on-nauru-are-acts-of-hopeful-despair-58791 No idea why people would be criticising the government's policy! Ten more years in that hellhole! It's practically an extended island holiday for them! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nauru_Regional_Processing_Centre There are kids in that place. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-04-04/about-90-children-to-be-returned-to-nauru-peter-dutton-says/7297320 It particularly great being a female refugee on Nauru! http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/government-has-until-sunday-to-arrange-refugees-abortion-20160510-goqrhh.html I am loving ashamed to be Australian right now.

KiteAuraan posted:That's Alice Springs, Australia's dumbest idea. Coober Pedy runs a close second. Although living underground like that is kinda cool (har har). Hey Lascivious Sloth, if it's not going to result in a visit from ASIO would you happen to have any photos of the detention centres? Or stories from people caught there?

WhiskeyWhiskers posted:Our doctors are pretty great though and usually put up a fight to stop people being inevitably sent back to the concentration camps. Is this the baby who was born on Nauru and is essentially a stateless person because lol stop the boats? Tried to sneak into the country in her mother's womb. If we're not tough on that sort of thing it just encourages them.
