Have you signed the #GameOver petition?
Petition to the Prime Minister reads:
Prime Minister Scott Morrison
Dear Prime Minister,
I am calling on you to free the people Australia has kept trapped on Nauru and Papua New Guinea for more than seven years.
There are options to get them to safety; the USA, Canada and Switzerland have already resettled many of these people. New Zealand is also willing to help.
Their situation is desperate. We need you to act before the death toll of 13 people who have been murdered or died in Australia’s offshore centres, grows even higher.
Please, act urgently and get these people to safety.
Sincerely
It’s time to call ‘Game Over’ on offshore detention.
