Positive change…

SMH: Liberal MP’s bid to overturn detention law.

I think that all of us who are concerned about this issue should contact Mr Georgiou thanking him for taking such a courageous step. I can only imagine the pressure he is under in introducing these bills.

Webdiary has more – including the specific text here and here. I haven’t had a chance to read either yet, but from the SMH overview they seems to be a pretty big step forward.

As an aside, Webdiary is also doing something very interesting to get to the facts of the Vivien Alvarez case.

Update: Check the comments for details of how to contact Minister Georgiou. (Thanks spiralgirl)
