Are you a member of a political party?The anology with football-You do not sell out your team members,you back them right or wrong.And if you do need to counsel them you do so in private.Is this person a member of the aboriginal team?

Back from 5 days in the Flinders....I saw this Jacinta Price on one of the ABC shows at least two years ago.She was opposed to the mainstream Aboriginal bodies and their aspirations.She believed (s) that people can live by bread alone.Things like constitutional recognition are irrelevant to...

Is she on any representative bodies?I will carry on with the football ananology.If a member,or members of your team get into a fight,do you back them or try to discredit them?What she did was try to discredit them.She could have either backed them,or shut her mouth...You see,some people live by...

As I see it ,she has very little credibility amongst other aboriginals ,and representative aboriginal groups.She has her own agenda.Did she say anything contructive ?You cannot be captain of a football team if you have not got the respect of the rest of the team.

Does not exclude her, but discounts her comments.This black deaths matter is more than that-it is about the plight of aboriginals overall,disadvantaged in a white man's society.What she says,and I suspect she knows it,is what suits her political aspirations.Has she anything constructive to say...

Isn't Jacinta Price the Liberal candidate?

Yes,my member is from the Centre Alliance-Rebekah Sharkie.Each piece of legislation is considered on its merits etc.It was good to have a positive choice when Georgina Downer,straight out of the Rinehart IPA was the opposing candidate.Of course there are some things that I do not concur with the...

I watched the CEC report last week (first time this year) and they explained more about the Belt and Road project,not only in Asia and Africa,but the benefits it could provide for Victoria.It sounded optimistic and beneficial.I hope the relationship sets an example for other Australian...

Reminds of of Whitlam's dismissal..the right never accepted the democratic vote.If they waited for the next election and voted him out all would have been above board.But with the help of two state premiers the right were able to change, or defy, the elected senate numbers and make Whitlam...

Had a quick look ...looks like solidly anti-Chinese. Without looking I thought it was Gordon Chan,bastard son of the Taipan, in James Clavell's novel of the same name.However, he would have been dead for well over 100 years.I recommend that book to you . It is about the founding of Hong Kong...

I don't know if these radical people belong to any political party ,but when they get the chance anarchists and vandals like a bit of action.

Who is Gordon Chang?

I think there are some crossed wireS here...if you want to start" the treatment of minorities and native peoples'it should be in a new thread.Few countries would survive that scrutiny. I thought I was saying that the US riots have knocked both Covid and Hong kong out of the news?

As has Hong Kong.

These big bellicose protests usually are joined by a collection of vandals nihilists and criminals.In Hong Kong I viewed some with hammers smashing ticket terminals at the entrance to the underground.Some protesters are more subtle.
