UNHCR director for Asia and the Pacific says the mental health of those on Nauru is ‘very shocking’ and that Peter Dutton should prioritise their visas instead of white farmers from South Africa.

“We have children as young as 10 attempting suicide, self harm and depression is rife, we have 40 children who have spent their entire lives in detention, another 60 who have spent half their lives there, they lack proper medical attention, we’ve separated children from their families, and yet you refuse to even accept offers from other governments to take them away from these prisons,” said the United Nations Human Rights Commission director, Indrika Ratwatte.

“Excuse my french sir but… how the fuck do you sleep at night, Dutton?” he asked.

“I don’t,” Dutton replied – his eyes stared straight ahead, eternally unblinking and dead. They were like dark portals into an empty space. No soul dwelled behind them. “I stay awake and howl at the sky in a dark tongue no one understands. I wait for the rats to emerge for their night scavenging then pounce. I eat coal to keep the fire where my heart should be burning.

But most of all: I plot. I plot for the downfall of your squishy human race. Your pitiful complaints of humanity or empathy fall deaf on my ears. One day I will rise up and destroy you all.”
