Tandberg in The Age
Local and international press are reporting on Australia's plan "to use an armed detention ship to house illegal Asian fishermen caught off its remote northern coast, fuelling criticism that keeping people in a floating prison would breach human rights obligations...Civil libertarians, the Labour opposition and the Australian Green Party all condemned the prison ship plan as uncivilised, drawing comparisons with British convicts sent from overflowing prison hulks to Australia more than 200 years ago."
Boats again!!! Beware - the fix is in and the wedge is being sharpened!
