Blog comments Your Say

  • Wow i can't believe they are still around.. Screaming the gov don't do anything for us â?¦ @ the same time they recieve regular gov payments and other benefits. If they was so sovereign they would be self sufficient but they bad mouth the people whom actually fund themâ?¦. How about the spiritual rock they worship.. Never EVER seen them before out and about doing these cultural ceremonies. Yet all of a sudden out of no where they are practitioners of cultural ceremonies.. Karma will hopefully sought out this fraudulent behaviour :)

  • People like Ms McKay should sudy history. 26 Jan 1788 is a NSW thing. She should be protesting 1 June 1829 (WA Day). But even that is not what it's about. There was no first nation becasue there was no nation. There was no unversal notion of sovereignty because most of the land was unoccupied, let alone a form of governmnet to claim sovereignty. Australia 1901 was an imperefct creation but it's not the end of the road, just the start. 23 million Australians today represents a nation of many races and languages. To assume it's yours and protest about it is not only the height of arrogance but also the height of stupidity.

  • Marianne MacKay will get a lot further with her fight talking like that than the way she use to talk. I will actually listen to her myself in future if she can do it with a civil tounge in her mouth like that. I'm in shock....I HEARD BUT I DON"T BELIEVE IT
