The Government's current policy of mandatory detention has no place in a just and fair society and one that values and respects human rights and dignity. I remain hopeful that we in Australia still do live in such a society. |

Refugees and people who overstay visas and asylum seekers are not criminals but are locked up longer. Detention has damaged their mental health, abused their rights. |

i am appalled at both major partie's policies on asylum seekers - the only hope for this country is a new party (perhaps carmen's policy platform will lead to this?) |

I want Mr Howard to know that Australians DO NOT support the Govt policy on detention and believe it to be unneccessarily cruel and unjust. A democracy should offer opportunities for debate. |

As a regular letterwriter to several detainees over several years, I can testify to the humiliating and debilitating effects of long term detention. The mental and physical deterioration of so many is obvious and has been documented many, many times. |

I firmly believe that the refugees should be given much more humane treatment. They should NOT be kept in detention longer than 3 months, and they should be allowed into the community with permanent visas. |

I don't want my grand children associating me with this abominable public policy. Unlike citizens of a previous era, we won't be able to say that "we didn't know about it". It's time to act now. Mandatory detention is immoral and must be stopped. |
