Please go to the Refugee Council of Australia website and sign the petition asking for children to be removed from detention in Nauru. This is our responsibility. It will take your twenty-five seconds

Saudi-led bombers keep hitting weddings, funerals, factories, markets, and a school bus, and their self-investigations usually self-exculpate, but the Trump administration certifies their doing enough to improve so US can continue to refuel the bombers. bit.ly/2Ndyfpm

The toxic mix of salt water & spilled fuel in rubber & wooden boats causes these nasty & very painful chemicals burns on survivors. Women & children are particularly vulnerable to being burned as they are often packed in the bottom of the boat for their perceived safety.

We need a critical mass of MPs in Parliament to show leadership and speak the truth about Offshore Processing, to take action to #EvacuateNow #KidsOffNauru like Andrew Wilkie MP 😇

This is how My 5-year old described what I do to his class: “My Dad is a teacher and my Mum is trying to help refugees. Mummy is trying to get silly bad people to do the right thing, by saying “don’t do that, its bad to do.” Well that sums it up perfectly. My new job description!

Thank you so much to the 3 government backbenchers — @BroadbentMP @LaundyCraigMP and @juliabanksmp who have had the courage to call for the PM to get all kids and their families off Nauru. All Oz politicians should follow their moral leadership #KidsOffNauru #auspol
