Blog: Dear Prime Minister

On July 30 2016 I started writing letters to the Prime Minister of Australia to protest against the imprisonment and torture of the asylum seekers in the offshore detention centres of Manus Island and Nauru. I started with the intention of writing a letter a day for every person in detention until they are all freed. There are more than 1800 asylum seekers in off shore detention. These are those letters and any response from Mr Turnbull.

For the 120th man on Manus Island

Dear Prime Minister,

Why do you persist with the inhumane and illegal use of prisons on Nauru and Manus Island to punish people who have sought our assistance? Who are you pandering to when you make emotional irrational statements such as "These people smugglers are the worst criminals imaginable."?
