A Happy Easter for Some

As if I haven't been incommunicado enough (completing an assignment on Australia's nuclear engagement with Asia, which I now sorely wish to turn into fissile material and bury for 250,000 million years), I'm off to family holidays for a few days.

In my absence, why not have a think about the future of Sydney's notorious Villawood Detention Centre? There's been dark mutterings about the mysterious timing of the evacuation of this facility after asbestos was discovered on the site, given that protests were planned there at Easter, while the asbestos has allegedly been known about for several years. Not to mention the fact that just about everyone - centre workers, protesters, passing stray dogs - were mentioned as potential victims of asbestosis before the actual detainees were. Detainees have been removed to a variety of different detention centres while the clean-up takes place. I think this story has a way to run yet, and I wouldn't be surprised if the doors of Villawood stayed shut for quite a long time - perhaps even forever. I'd be thrilled if I thought the detainees would be kept somewhere safer, friendlier or nicer, but sadly, that's unlikely to be the case.
