Asylum seekers on Manus Island, through Amnesty International, have demanded a response from the Department if Immigration by close of business today about a range of things, foremost a lack of air conditioners.
Why didn't I think of contacting Amnesty International when I spent all those years in Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, Thursday Island, Samoa, Rangoon and Penang Island with not a whisper of an air conditioner?
In fact, the last few days at "Riverbend" have been pretty hot and I could've done with Amnesty International's help to have the Australian government give me an air conditioner.
I had better get started and write them a letter. Mind you, I don't like my chances of getting a reply. I am still waiting for a reply to a letter I wrote to the local council some months ago. Of course, I am not an asylum seeker; I am merely an Australian citizen and taxpayer.
P.S. By the way, a South American scientist from Argentina, after a lengthy study, has discovered that people with insufficient brain and sexual activity read blogs with their hand on the mouse.
DON'T BOTHER TAKING IT OFF NOW, IT'S TOO LATE!!!
