Stop construction of
Christmas Island detention centre

Despite his promise to scrap John Howard's 'Pacific Solution' Kevin Rudd has shown no sign of re-incorporating Christmas Island back into The Migration Zone - whatever the rest of the world might imagine a migration zone to be...

The proposed Christmas Island detention facility is in the style of the notorious Guantanamo prison and only months away from being completed.

This monstous detention camp is 1,000 kms off the Australian mainland, where no-one can hear you scream. This is the biggest challenge we have faced so far.

Please make an appointment with your local Labor member and tell them about this place; it's quite possible they don't know. Let's make sure they do know, especially Kevin Rudd. Remind them that behind the electric fences and doors is an 8 cot nursery, playground, childcare, classrooms - and a lot of broken promises.
