The Abbott government is stepping up efforts to deport refugees to danger. Last year it forcibly deported asylum seekers back to Afghanistan for the first time. In December a deportation from Sydney was successfully prevented when the asylum seeker on board, in conjunction with passengers who stood up, demanded the deportee be removed from the plane This forum will hear about recent protests as well as past anti-deportation action, and will discuss their role in the broader refugee rights campaign. 6:30pm. ANMF Building, 540 Elizabeth St, City. Organised by Refugee Action Collective.
