    Yassmin Abdel-Magied shares another contentious Anzac Day tweet

    Nearly a year after her Anzac Day post lead to her receiving death threats, Muslim activist Yassmin Abdel-Magied has risked further outrage by endorsing another Anzac Day tweet about asylum seekers.
    On Friday Ms Abdel-Magied shared a tweet from Sally Rugg, a former GetUp! campaign director and incoming Change.org national director, that read: “What if thousands of us all tweeted ‘lest we forget (Manus)’ next week on April 25th…”
    Ms Abdel-Magied retweeted Ms Rugg’s words and added: “Do it.”
