More than 150 asylum seekers whose boat was intercepted near Christmas Island more than two weeks ago are being held behind locked doors on a customs ship in rooms without windows on the high seas, with no clue to where they are or where the Abbott government plans to take them. This is after others were forcibly taken back to the country that they fled from, fearing torture, and are now facing massive penalties for leaving in the first place. This is why the UN Refugee Convention was set up in the first place. Because people were fleeing death and torture and were being turned back. Scott Morrison has dug himself into such a deep hole, purely politically motivated, that he will violate peoples rights on a huge scale to protect his awful policies. And now he has no idea how to deal with people that didnt come from Indonesia that he is keeping them indefinitely on a boat.
