Let me shed some light on this problem. The traditional owners keep telling us that they were invaded. So according to International Law they (the invaded) have no say in anything, we the conquerers are the Legal Owners now.
they were invaded, they then didnt have any say in anything for centuries until they started protesting, along with other white Australian citizens, and were eventually granted equal rights, citizenship and land rights by the government.

Many on this council are there for the wrong reasons . They do not have the interest of the majority of ratepayers at heart. It’s only Alex and Marcia that have any kind of logic about them. To be on council you must have actually worked , earned a pay cheque so you know and understand what it means to earn your own finances. Many on this council have never worked a day in their life’s .. let’s hope at the next election the people realise their mistakes and vote for representatives who actually focus wholeheartedly on the community and its ratepayer.
The original Australians could care less than the politicians think they care, and the originals are actually grateful for the infrastructure that came from the centuries of innovation. What they would likely have hatred for is the dealings with China.
