There was a Lord Mayor of Brisbane, Clem Jones, a surveyor by profession, who sewered Brisbane against the nay sayers and entrenched interests. It was a magnificent achievement. The same man used to jot down road potholes and other damaged infrastructure and get it fixed on arrival, early, at work. No *bleep* stirring, just solid achievement from a leader.

Yarra City Mayor, Greens Amanda Stone, must have plenty of time on her hands and nothing to fix for ratepayers.

Its the only invasion day that I know of that has brought so many benefits to so many. Still it has not stopped family and tribal feuds. Surely any honest historian would rejoice. Oh that right the revisionist have dumbed down so many.

Anyone who would say "Local government used to be relatively free from Party politics." When was that leoj? Obviously you have never been involved in local government politics. So many state and federal politicians, from all sides, have received their political grounding at the local level.


"Its the only invasion day that I know of that has brought so many benefits to so many" What was that runner, the ancestors imposing their protestant Christianity onto indigenous people. or was it all those Europeans who were able to escape the oppression of Europe, and so many other places since. Australia has indeed been the lucky country for some.

well I suppose a lot of young girls who would of been given to old uncles would be happy Paul. Then again you Greens have shown you care zilch about child abuse unless committed by a catholic priest.

Runner, I don't know where you evidence for that superstition is;
"well I suppose a lot of young girls who would of been given to old uncles would be happy" Something you made up, did Arthur Phillip make reference to it on Invasion Day?

You might be an apologists for the actions of Catholic priests. I am not!

No more Ceremonies? Good.
It's not just about rights but also responsibilities.
You shouldn't get a prize just for turning up that now gives you legitimacy in attacking all other existing Australians as racists because you now want to make this country just like the backwards stoneage hellhole where you came from.
Instead of attacking real Aussies, why don't you gatecrashers just accept the country and its natural imhabitants for who they are and try to assimilate, or else piss off back to where you came from.

Multiculturalism is ONLY good if it improves the lives of all the people, not just the imports, and currently its a bs fantasy under a leftist bs guise of so called equality.

Stop importing Jihadi's.
