I Think The Australian People Are Very Conscientious. During The 1980s And 1990s We Proved They Will Respond Conscientiously To Necessary Reforms. They Mightn't Like Them But They'll Accept Them. But Reforms Have To Be Presented In A Digestible Format.

We Took The Traditional Lands And Smashed The Traditional Way Of Life. We Brought The Diseases And The Alcohol. We Committed The Murders. We Took The Children From Their Mothers. We Practised Discrimination And Exclusion. It Was Our Ignorance And Our Prejudice. And Our Failure To Imagine That These Things Could Be Done To Us.

If You Are Sitting On The Title Of Any Block Of Land In New South Wales You Can Bet An Aboriginal Person At Some Stage Was Dispossessed Of It.

The Great Curse Of Modern Political Life Is Incrementalism.
