The Australian online activism portal GetUp! is placing a TV ad they say is a huge success in a campaign to stop the government moving 267 vulnerable refugees back to the hellhole Nauru Island concentration camp. View the ad here. More than 560,000 people have already watched the planned ad as an online video. “Churches offering sanctuary, premiers defying their party and an unprecedented shift in public mood — it's all sending shockwaves through the corridors of power,” GetUp! writes.

Last night we got word the Children's Hospital in Brisbane is refusing to discharge 1-year-old baby Asha back to the detention camp on Nauru. But Border Force has made it clear that doctor's decisions won't stop them deporting people to detention.

Political offices in Canberra say the 'Let Them Stay' campaign is like nothing they've ever seen.

Churches offering sanctuary, premiers defying their party and an unprecedented shift in public mood — it's all sending shockwaves through the corridors of power. What we're doing is working, but not fast enough.

267 vulnerable people are at risk of deportation to Nauru right now. And baby Asha and her mother could be taken from their hospital room to a Border Force van at a moment's notice.

We have to quickly ramp up the pressure on the government. So we're turning a viral video viewed by more than half a million people into a major TV ad campaign to keep public sentiment moving our way.

Key supporters who love the ad are willing to match GetUp member contributions today dollar-for-dollar, which means the impact of everything we chip in right now will have double the impact.

Chip in now to our emergency 'Let Them Stay' TV ad campaign.

Confidential polling shows the 'Let Them Stay' campaign has already shifted the hearts and minds of 15% of Australians in less than 10 days — we've never seen anything like it.

But we have to take it to the next level to change the government's position. With key supporters willing to match everything we raise today, we can help do that by funding a national TV ad campaign.

We've got an ad that we know works, because it was liked, watched and shared enough to be seen by more than 560,000 people online.


Now we need to do an all-out TV blitz, targeting our political leaders and the 21% of Australians our polling tells us are still undecided on the issue. Our expert media buyers are working out the plan, from getting on the news shows that every politician watches, to targeting undecided people on the programs they watch.

But things are moving fast, and once any of these 267 vulnerable men, women and children are deported to Nauru, it's near impossible to get them back.
