Mandatory detention should cease as it's an outrageous breach of human rights. |

As a New York Times bestselling author and citizen of Australia, I am naturally concerned when my country's poor reputation impinges on my own professional reputation. Forums like these can only help improve the situation, eventually. |

The government's shameful record on asylum seekers is a national embarrassment and it has only been highlighted by recent debacles with detention, such as Cornelia Rau. |

The anthropologist Margaret Mead once told students that the first sign of civilisation in humans was compassion as evidenced by care of others. If we wish to claim to be civilised we must show compassion to all, especially innocent children |

We cannot justify current treatment of refugees. These are human beings who have suffered to much already. Nothing can justify continuation of this practice. All politicians must take responsibility to end it. |

I do not support the Federal Governments policies on mandatory detention and abhor the conditions in which women and children are imprisoned and families separated.

The mandatory detention of anyone seeking asylum in Australia is shameful. Would you lock up a stranger that arrives at your house, knowing that this stranger has travelled far, risking their life, because of ill-treatment in their own home? |
