Interview with Pam Curr OAM about the Tamil family from Biloela being deported under cruel asylum seeker laws in Australia.

10. Under Australian law, the Tamil family’s claims for asylum have never been strong yet the #Let Them Stay movement have put a lot of time, money and effort into their case. Given that there are thousands of more cases, many of them stronger, have we done the right thing by focussing of this particular family?

11. The Labor Party singles out this case as being different from other claims. Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese said the government should intervene on the basis that Nades worked at the Biloela meatworks - a business that couldn't source enough local workers to operate. Do you agree with him and if so why? Should refugees be graded for their protentional economic value to Australia?
