Australian former judge offers to swap places with a refugee

An 88-year-old former judge in Australia has offered to swap places with a refugee on Nauru - an island where Australia has a detention centre that is holding hundreds of refugees. He told us 'I'm 88, a refugee would have 50 years to live here'. Jim had treatment for throat cancer a couple of years ago so speaks using an electronic voicebox, so we've added subtitles.
