Refugees set up a protest camp outside the electorate office of Clare O'Neil, Minister for Home Affairs and Cybersecurity on July 15 to demand permanent visas.
A flyer being given out to passers-by says: “We are refugees who have been left behind for over 12 years.
“Many refugees have lived in Australia without a permanent visa. This long period of uncertainty has caused deep pain and suffering. Families have been torn apart, with loved ones separated for years.”
[The refugee protesters are encouraging supporters to visit them at 19 Atherton Road, Oakleigh, Melbourne.]
