Refugees sue Aussie govt. over poor healthcare on Christmas Island -

Asylum-seekers are suing the Australian government, seeking compensation for injuries and better medical care.  Attorneys representing the immigrants say a class action has been filed on behalf of refugees who've been injured, or have seen their injuries worsen, while detained on Christmas Island. They say the government's failure to provide adequate medical care in camps on the Australian territory has compromised the health of refugees. The lawyers say doctors who have visited detention camps agree that standards there fall well short of the Australian regulations. Over the past several years, thousands of people have been held on Christmas Island, in the Indian Ocean. There are currently 759 men, 97 women and 148 children in detention there.

Do you know why the scum live on tents there in Naru and Manus Island? They had buildings but they had tanrums and trashed them in the expectation they'd be taken to the mainland of Australia to be processed. But all they got after all that were military style tents.

In Papua Nu Guinea they don't take any crap if these middle easterners tantrum locals will come bash them up.. and they have. In Naru they don't want the Middle easterners mixing with their women and are growing tired of them being there.

Most of the big trouble makers go to Naru, the ones that don't make as much trouble to go :- Darwin, or Villawood in Sydney. Those Bastards even were allowed in a quiet South Australian town's former military married quarters called "Woodside." The residents hated it!

I don't know what they have to sue us for if they have not got the right shelter it is due to the fact they destroyed the huts themselves! they go on Hunger strike, stitch their lips up and other "over the top" crap to get sympathy.

Those Bastards even were allowed in a quiet South Australian town's former military married quarters called "Woodside." The residents hated it!

They threw out the military families that were living there, revamped the homes, gave the the illegals everything they would ever need and the moment they moved in, they started their bitching about the conditions not being fit for human habitation. They have since moved the illegals out and decided to put the military families back in - after stripping the homes back to their bare shells.

As for the illegals suing the federal government, they don't have the cash for it. What is happening is some traitorous lawyer is working pro-bono trying to gyp the Australian tax payer!

THE federal government says it has agreed to the closure of the Manus Island detention centre because the boatloads of asylum seekers have stopped.

"One of the dividends of stopping boats is that we can close detention centres," Immigration Minister Peter Dutton told 2GB radio on Wednesday.

Australia has agreed to shut down the processing centre after Mr Dutton met PNG Prime Minister Peter O'Neill in Port Moresby on Wednesday for talks about shutting down the centre, following a PNG Supreme Court ruling it was illegal.

"We have determined that we can do without the capacity that was once needed on Manus Island," Mr Dutton said after meeting with PNG Prime Minister Peter O'Neill in Port Moresby.

But the minister is adamant none of the asylum seekers will be settled in Australia.

The government will support people settling in PNG or returning to their country of origin.

"I want to make it very clear: people will not be coming to Australia."

Mr Dutton says the processing centre on Nauru will remain open because it acts as an important deterrent.

"We need a regional processing centre because we know it is one of the main tools that helps to stop people smugglers selling tickets."

Mr O'Neill said a number of options for closing down the centre were being canvassed and further announcements would be made soon.

"Both Papua New Guinea and Australia are in agreement that the centre is to be closed," he said in a statement.

Mr O'Neill said he was satisfied that officials from both sides were making progress but it was important the process was not rushed.

"This must take into account the interests of the people of Papua New Guinea and the wellbeing of asylum seekers and refugees. "The Supreme Court has delivered its ruling and our government is complying with this decision."

Mr O'Neill said he was satisfied that officials from both sides were making progress but it was important the process was not rushed.

"This must take into account the interests of the people of Papua New Guinea and the wellbeing of asylum seekers and refugees.

"The Supreme Court has delivered its ruling and our government is complying with this decision."

Mr O'Neill said after the decision on April 27 that the centre would close and he would "immediately ask the Australian Government to make alternatives arrangements for the asylum seekers".

Manus Island Regional Processing Centre was originally set up on October 21, 2001 as part of Prime Minister John Howard's Pacific Solution, and it was closed down in May 2004 when its lone asylum seeker Aladdin Sisalem, a Kuwaiti-born Palestinian, was resettled in Melbourne.

Manus Island was reopened in November 2012 by the Labor Government.

Detainee Reza Berati, a 23-year-old Iranian asylum seeker, was killed in a riot at Manus Island Regional Processing Centre on February 17, 2014.

There were 847 asylum seekers at Manus Island Regional Processing Centre on May 31.

Earlier Mr Dutton reiterated the country's stance on people attempting to reach Australia illegally by boat.

"People should not believe people smugglers' lies and risk their lives trying to get to Australia in unsafe boats; they will be turned back and will have wasted their money," he said.
