Dear Ranjini, today, January 26th, is a day when we remember the resilience and courage of Aboriginal Australians, and all the new Australians who faced adversity to come to this wonderful country. Today I am deeply ashamed that you and your children will spend this day in detention. I look forward to my political representatives having the integrity and courage to press for your release. One day soon I believe you will all be free and contributing to our country, as you were before your detention.
