Letter to the Editor: The shame of continued mental torture


It saddens me greatly to read that 50 male asylum seekers have self-harmed or attempted suicide since the federal election on Manus Island and in Port Moresby. The question I ask repeatedly is “Why have we and our politicians lost so much empathy towards others in need of help and compassion?” Come on my fellow Australians, let’s embrace and support others in need and not be afraid of them. I urge everyone to petition their federal representatives to exercise their natural humanity and change this cruel practice.
