The political class wouldn't no truth if it bit them on the bum.

Dunno about Qld but some of the Vic truth telling commissioners appear to be about 90% Caucasian, say 7/8. Perhaps they should wear special hats so we can tell the oppressed from the oppressors. We need a non-First Nations truth telling commission to point out that since European invasion the aborigines have had the advantage of clean water, an international language, writing, modern medicine and high speed transport. If that's suffering I'd hate to see what is.

With these commissions I suspect the secret agenda is Preparations for Reparations. In Samoa Charles is probably cottoning on to this. He has personal worth of £19 billion but apparently the Commonwealth aggrieved need £19 trillion. Come back with more cash. Some say the aggrieved should get over it and move on. What.. put the commissioners out of a job?

The modern day version of a 1950’s Russian Communist show trial; Queensland style.
Are we allowed to guess what will be the outcome? FM!

What a pathetic state this Country has fallen into: Hiw do these collection of “Pansies” get to rule over the top of us?

You really have been living with your head up your arse haven't you?

Aries 54 please explain how the aborigines have gone backwards since Europeans arrived. Why have they interbred? Why are they speaking the invader's language?

Dear Taswegian
So the indigenous peoples of this land were 'invaded' (your accurate word) slaughtered by the thousands, had their children stolen, were regarded as not being worthy of citizenship in their own land, and a million other injustices and you reckon an international language and high speed transport excuses all that. Get real. Plus, a Taswegian speaking of inbreeding. Spare me.
