Julian 🚑🚑🚑🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️ Burnside. It's always about the $$$.

All the best, this was much needed.

bluedpn Watch out MurrayWatt as you will be in gkvt soon maybe lol and this is supposedly yommyour speciality human rights yes Dion Broome says hi we all having beers at Xmas he live radeleaide now

😂🤣 Good luck with that Ambulance chaser.

🤣😂 Ambulance chasers

GondwanaLands Are, the shysters can smell easy money, sitting back like spiders waiting for the right moment.

Yep get those children of Nauru and back on a boat with their parents home. America isn't good enough for them as they refused to go to, because the Benefits are better in Australia. Shoo

This is fakenews there is NO TORTURE on nauru - why are we taxpayers paying for these LIES 👎😡 auspol

DefundSBSFakeNews. Stick to your knitting, SBS. eg EUROVISION!

If, as Julian alleges, these people have been horribly mistreated by Australia then can you please explain why it is that they refuse offers to go to the US? Why would you want to live in a country that has apparently tortured you?

So they're demanding to be let in to the country that's been torturing them. Shouldn't they be seeking asylum somewhere humane?

Long overdue

LOL is the “torture” before or after the icecream?

In the meantime being fed, housed,medicated etc. Probably refused to go home. Maybe goodness knows what other benefits from the long suffering Australian tax-payer

Unreal

Yes, we're all familiar with the term good German.

The crimes against humanity are being perpetrated by child refugees.

They have been subjected to torture? Really? Torture? What sort of torture? Waterboarding? Fingernails ripped off? Head nailed to a coffee table?

and the good thing is, when the boats start up again, the people who drown won't be able to launch a class action against these clowns because they will be dead!

'A non-profit law firm'? All law firms are non-profit. They are partnerships. By law all the profits of partnerships have to be distributed to the partners. If there are any profits that is - after paying the lawyers salaries 😆 SO much BS from these people.

SBS Yep screw the tax payer

whoever is organising this should be jailed or deported, or worse. they do not care about Aussie homeless or sick waiting for treatment.

Go get em...

Burnside is nothing but a scumsucking lawyer. They're on Nauru because they refuse to be resettled anywhere but Australia, or are not refugees and refuse to back to their shithole country. Deport the lot.

What a load of rubbish! A lawyers paradise. Its the trouble of letting them remain there for too long. They should have been sent back to their home country straight away.

They've an excellent case. robodebt survivor ndis victim offering her services free gratis as character assessment from an Aussie citizen's point of view. Irony's the compensation will be enough asylum seekers will be able to buy visa entry as investors.

All power to you Julian.Go for it. I have friends who have been rescued from Nauru by the good work of the National Justice Project (and others). The psychosocial trauma, deliberate and persisting, is undeniable.

SBSNews is on the cusp of deliberately, with foreknowledge and foreseeability, inciting hatred, uprising and social destabilisation against everything Australian - every story written has an undertone of discontent and fighting for ethnic groups -selective journalism without fact

When all else fails try the class action. The root cause is that people tried illegal entry. They knew the risk. They made a choice by paying money and destroying ID’s. Australia has a legal immigration process. Crime against humanity or right to sovereign defence of borders?

And the politicians that have kept them there should pay ScottMorrisonMP PeterDutton_MP

Torture and crimes against humanity? At least Julian isn't resorting to nonsensical hyperbole then.

Triplejay58 NB: Dutton deboned arm has healed in no time. also there are no kids on Nauru. auspol liar

All Power Julian....Thankyou for standing up for Humanity and Decency. Aust once had a great proud standing in the World for its fairness and compassion but now under this vile govt Aust is floundering around in the cesspit of hate and bigotry

😱🍆💩🧻🚽✅

Come in spinner: “International doctors on Nauru demanded an Iranian asylum seeker be medically evacuated to Australia because she was in so much pain – only for Brisbane doctors to find she was constipated. But once here, they're here for good. The woman remains in Australia.”

Awesome.

There's something creepy about the way Julian Burnside fantasises about helpless foreign children being tortured. His obsession just seems a little sick if you ask me.

This won’t help their case 😂😂😂
