2ser's Razors Edge

The Federal Government has come under fire for its policy of processing asylum seekers on Nauru and Manus Island. The Refugee Action Coalition has denounced what it calls a “pointless” and “short-sighted” practice. In a protest outside Health Minister Tanya Plibersek’s Sydney office yesterday, demonstrators called on the government to change its approach. They say re-opening the two offshore processing centres is not a humane solution to people smuggling. 2SER’s Sam Buckingham-Jones filed this report.
