The Drownings' Argument Author: Robin Rothfield

ISBN: 9780992539153 Format: Paperback Number Of Pages: 112 Published: 1 August 2014 Country of Publication: AU Dimensions (cm): 19.8 x 13.0 x 0.6 Description: 'Let's be very clear about this: every death at sea is a tragedy. No-one wants to see refugees die in their attempt to escape persecution, but the often-recited concern about refugees drowning is just hypocritical propaganda. People like Abbott and Morrison express their concern about refugees who drown. They are not sincere, but it provides a vaguely respectable excuse for harsh policies. I will say this plainly: when Abbott and Morrison say they are worried about refugees drowning on their way to Australia, they are lying: they are deceiving the public. It opens the way to mistreat asylum seekers who have not drowned, and helps them pursue the darker purpose of keeping refugees out' - Julian Burnside, QC
