Nauru makes it to Danny Katz's column!

The Age Satirist Danny Katz has made a comment Australia's detention policy in his column this week. Katz was talking about the strange title of the comedy improvisation show 'Thank God You're Here', and decided on a few variations, including 'Thank Jehovah You're Here', 'Thank Buddha You're Here' and 'Thank Karl Marx You're Here'. The one i've taken an extract from here is the one I found interesting...!

Thank gods you're watching

THANK ALLAH YOU'RE HERE
This zany new improvised TV show is staged in an Australian refugee detention centre, before a captive studio audience, who are locked behind 12-foot-high razor-wired cyclone fencing. Each week, a Muslim refugee enters the centre through a padlocked door, and is greeted by another Muslim refugee saying: "Thank Allah you're here! I don't know what horrors you're fl eeing from, but I'm telling you, it can't get any worse than this." Then the refugee must improvise their way through the rest of their stay at the centre, which can take anything up to seven years - and the winning refugee gets an all-expenses-paid longterm tropical holiday in Nauru.
