In Australia, protesters have disrupted Parliament for the second straight day to demand the closure of refugee camps on the Pacific island nations of Nauru and Papua New Guinea. Australia has threatened to never resettle refugees who arrive by boat, and has instead shipped the refugees off to these camps, where they are imprisoned indefinitely. On Thursday, activists unveiled a banner in front of Australia’s Parliament House reading “Close the Bloody Camps Now. Justice for Refugees.”
