Thank you BBCWorld. Keep it up. We need light shone on this corrupt government here in Australia.

Mums4Refugees Crimes against humanity. The Australian government is criminally responsible. The youngest child was born in Australia. Disgusting behavior.

It is even more cruel and demeaning than your story portrays. Taken from their home in a dawn raid by border force. Detained in Melbourne for 2 years in conditions so poor the children’s teeth rotted. Now detained on Christmas Is for 18 months. Australia’s shame!
