Those who nowadays are the broken record of past wrongs are in fact partial descendants of the perpetrators but they conveniently fail to even hint at that fact nor do they acknowledge the benefits on top of the compensation provided for recent generations of real indigenous Australians.
They are the very same characters who are vying for positions within the mechanism of the Voice. I have witnessed the hypocritical opportunism of these people & have no faith whatsoever in their ability let alone intention to work towards a common harmony !

Money is the 'cure-all' for all politicos in Australia. Our education system is on the rocks. Throw more money at it.
Result: the education system is worsening. Aboriginal Australians in remote areas are on the rocks. Throw more money at them. Result: Aboriginal Australians in remote areas are on bigger rocks. In the latter case, though, is any of the money getting anywhere near remote aborigines, or is it being gobbled up by bureaucratic quangos like the proposed Voice?

Next well hear that China wants reparations from the UK for flooding their country with opium;
And then the UK will demand reparations from Norway for the Viking invasions and Italy for Roman invasions. Maybe after that, Mexico, Panama and Peru will want reparations for the Spanish Conquistadors? Posted by Armchair Critic, Tuesday, 14 February 2023 3:10:55 PM

AC
If you read the Axios link to the story in SF above, the less than secreative suggestion of the rainbow wreckers, is to defund public institutions to fund the scheme; specifically the Police. It’s not a great leap to suggest our own “Rainbow Albatross “ called a PM, will go down the same path with Aboriginals, after the voice is manipulated into being undemocratically.

The act of Parliament in 2013, which recognised Aboriginals as the original inhabitants, was the beginning of the drift away from consensus.
The voice is wrong since it falls outside of equality under the law, by allowing for a power sharing agreement which affords a selected culture of Au society an added advantage.
Other countries such as Sri Lanka for example, rejected a similar claim by Tamils for special constitutional recognition. We should also reject claims of special privilege on the constitution.
If this Countryncontinues the slide towards propping up and affordinggsoecial Ben if it’s to selected cultural groups, depending on the flavour of the month chosen by unreliable politicians, the outcomes will resemble those now befornSan Francisco residents, who will be expected to stump up with the funds to do so.
