    Is this just lip service or is it accompanied by any meaningful policy changes?

      Well they also signed a treaty and mandated a permanent first people assembly and presence that also included an independent oversight body, so i’d say yea.

      Check the news, the treaty has been all over it.

        They made this statement because they are no longer ahead in the 2 party preferred vote and there is an upcoming election.

      LNP increasing… Greens and ALP both decreasing.

      Fuck Aussie’s are poorly-informed voters. We’ll be back to LNP and right-wing coalition govt in no time, with the last 15 years of problems blamed on the 4 years of Labor rule because ‘they touched it last’.
