But there will be magic.
-For the elites, black and white, that have been and will continue to do very well out of those billions of dollars of gold that spill from the trough of taxpayers money. The real magic will be in getting the VIP aircraft. - OK so new Cessna Delani, seating four very comfortably if women and children walk, would be the minimum, to go with those chauffeur driven aircon limos. The ACT voted against government but they got it anyhow and thankfully since then the political classes and their hangers-on have done well. Maybe model the entitlements on them plus the aircraft and extra international travelling allowances, heh? It is important first-up to get the agreement on what the elites are going to get out of it, yes? Oh, and don't be forgetting those Cessnas with special lockers for outlandish possum skin coats for those ceremonial occasions when white & black F*Bleep*ing C*bleeps* need a reminder of who's boss cocky now. What about this? 30 accused of child sex abuse http://www.pressreader.com/australia/the-west-australian/20170603/281578060625597 Racism, obviously. Now, all up for the Courgette Restaurant nosh-up tonight? Taxpayer not going but paying of course. Posted by leoj, Tuesday, 6 June 2017 1:52:35 PM

leoj,
Just read the link, unbelievable; we all know that these sorts of things don't happen in Australia, particularly among the Indigenous. I'd put it all down to a media beat-up; of course, I might be wrong. There is no precedent for this sort of thing, is there? Seems to be a few pages on the subject on Wikipedia, obviously all biased?? Posted by Is Mise, Tuesday, 6 June 2017 3:30:00 PM

Is Mise,
Your heart goes out to those women. They are constantly extending themselves to protect their children, while being shamed by the circumstances they find themselves in and by the SOBs who would beat the living daylights out of them for getting in their way, or for lifting the black curtain. Not a priority for the 'Progressives' though. There are those on OLO who would make every excuse and try to shift the blame. Posted by leoj, Tuesday, 6 June 2017 5:13:14 PM

'Your heart goes out to those women'
true leoj however given the abc response you can see they care little. Imagine it was 30 Catholic Priests. Posted by runner, Tuesday, 6 June 2017 5:22:55 PM

The women may think they are protecting the girls but in reality their actions do little.
I have lived in a community and I have grandchildren currently living in communities. The most common protective gesture is teaching girls to wear several layers of clothes, especially bottom half. A little girl will wear a pair of knickers, covered by cycle shorts, covered by leggings or jeans or floppy shorts. The girls don't know why, it's just always been told to them. Some mothers do put a lock on a door but that's a worry in case of fire when the women are gone playIng cards all night. What the women don't do is report the men. Neither do many of the girls report what is happening because the first time they tried it they got slapped for speaking up or got told to learn to live with it, it's normal. You can't even raise the issue in public sessions because the aboriginal people who hate that this happens also are terrified they are going to be labelled the same so all they want to do is bury the information. Small efforts to make change will not work. We need a " rip the bandaide off quickly" approach. Communities should have been included in the recent Royal Commission.

If they are going to divide the nation by race you would think they would have the decency to put it to the people.
