Green Left interviews Greens councillor Jonathan Sri about the refugees imprisoned at Kangaroo Point.

Greens Councillor Jonathan Sri, who represents The Gabba ward in Brisbane, says he will not be installing the COVID-19 surveillance app and explains why other measures, without any nasty stings, would be more effective in helping reduce the spread of the pandemic.
