Federation, again 1967, clear intent Australian desire all Australians treated as equals, equals in rights and responsibilities, regardless their racial identification.
Const_s.51(xxvi) races power enabled Commonwealth to control immigration of persons not Australians on grounds of race.
At Federation many Australians concerned employers import cheap labour (British Subjects around world) so to force down our growing living standards.
Responsibility for racial qualification of rights or responsibilities rests with Parliaments passing laws claiming it was lawful to so act.
Far more serious responsibility upon Justices High Court for holding as lawful such racist behaviour.
High Court Justices ignoring their judicial duties, their responsibility to Sovereign Power - the People of Australia, ignoring clear aim vast majority Australians for all Australians be treated equally regardless of their racial ancestry.
People of Australia 1967 voted NOT to widen opportunity for Federal Parliament to practice racism, they voted to extinguish, to ban all claim legislative support to such behaviour.
ALR(NT) amending legislation IF proclaimed will allow Traditional Owners, Aboriginals, anyone living in communities to invite guests into their homes without needing permit, like any other place in Australia.
IF proclaimed will NOT require obtain permit per Land Councils for their family to invite to live with or visit them in their homes.
Warren Snowdon MHR Lingiari plans undo these changes if Labor elected.
Snowdon MHR objects to Traditional Owners, Aboriginals, people obtaining valid leases for their homes, as leases gives them some rights !
Snowdon MHR supports segregation, seperation of familes on racial grounds.
