Hectoria (Paradigm Shift, 4ZZZ fm 102.1 Fridays at Noon): "Last week we witnessed the High Court of Australia plunge a dagger in the heart of refugees and their sympathisers in their 6-1 verdict in support of government policy of detaining and deporting refugees fleeing wars where Australia has had a part in backing US interests. Both major parties, Liberal and Labor, support these policies. Earlier today I had the good fortune to obtain this candid interview with one of the judges, Pat Keane, who ruled in favour of government policy that results in the mistreatment and abuse of refugees on equatorial Nauru, a tiny spec in the Pacific Ocean far from privileged suburbs of Canberra. The response from ordinary people has forced church and state leaders to offer sanctuary to the 267 refugees and their children who may be deported as a result of government policy and its ratification by the High Court."
