There is every reason to believe that most people don't care what you and the other alphabet people want or think. They have too much going on in their own lives to concern themselves with a small minority, no matter how noisy and irritating they are. You and your 'demands' have become very boring.

" Dr Lowitja O'Donogue's life and achievements were honoured today with a state funeral at St Peter's Cathedral in Adelaide."

I wonder if they mentioned that she lied about being a member of the stolen generation?

Oh, BTW her name was Lois.

In his article, ‘No Longer Such Arresting Officers”, Christopher Akehurst writes about the breakup of the affair between the police and the Mardi Gras exhibitionists.

Permission for police officers in uniform to ponce along in those ghastly parades was a serious lack of judgement by whoever sanctioned it. Bad enough to be there in mufti, but at least they wouldn't have smeared the reputation of the force.

Now the “rainbow love affair” has been “shattered”. A damn good thing.

Unfortunately, in SA, where they have legislative for a more-snouts-trough-voice-thing despite the fact that the state produced the biggest NO vote on the Albanese Voice, they have also announced the enlistment of the first transgender copper.

It's not only our politicians who are hitting rock bottom, it's also our once-respected institutions.

Here are the facts about Dr Lowitja O'Donogue.
A remarkable woman with remarkable power:

Not sure about the Mardi Gras hitting "rock bottom."
Police praised the behaviour of Mardi Gras attendees.
And the parade certainly showed that we have a country
in which most people respect everyone for who they are.

Police did march. As did the armed forces, fire-fighters,
MPs, and so many others from well known institutions, including
many celebrities.

With so many attendees and participants - there's no sign of
the parade hitting "rock bottom," by any stretch of the
imagination

Here's the link Foxy tried to post....

Foxy, there's this new invention called copy-paste (Ctrl-C;Ctrl-V). You should try it one day.

Anyway, the new article still doesn't mention that she lied about being a member of the stolen generation or that her real name was Lois before changing it to something that had more street-cred within the aboriginal industry.
