Rishworth said needs-based funding was "a really important conversation" but did not make any commitments.
Shirleen Campbell says if domestic violence services were adequately funded "we wouldn't be in this situation". "The trauma story didn't come out, the poverty story didn't come out," she said.Ms Campbell said alcohol dependence was not unique to Central Australia.
Take responsibility for your own actions
How many more billions is the govt going to spend on this mob for no result. Perhaps all the funding should be given to the Voice advisory committee who can decide how to spend it but once it is spent, then there is no more. But wait, I just remembered ATSIC!
An example of a voice to Parliament, without having to under go a face based constitutional referendum?
Thoughts? Ms Campbell said the source of the NT's high rates of domestic and family violence 'goes back to colonisation'.
Theblackfemini3 A community reliant on government is always going to end up on the shit. How many times do you need to be told socialism doesn’t work.
Community leaders need to take control or do you wield no respect? Everyone in this country has had it tough, immigrants from afar, broken families and tragedy. The majority pick themselves up and move on. The more this nonsense carries on the more your support diminishes.
'Last year, a Four Corners investigation revealed 315 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women have been murdered, killed or disappeared in the last two decades.' Is that more than from deaths in custody? Where is the royal commission and protests? If only they were in a city
they need lots of babysitters for everything For health for family violence They need teaching to respect properties like shop owners losing money due to repeated vandalism n break ins They need family n career counselors etc etc
Isn't it more appropriate to rather get the abuser gaoled and sued. Take the problem away and it can't keep up the abuse. I get there's a victim of abuse but not taking the abuser away Isn't going to stop anything. It's what happens almost everywhere else as well as VRO's
No one is coming to help because last time they did it was labelled: 'the stolen generation'
I think it’s time that “First Nations”, people take personal responsibility for their actions, instead of blaming everyone else. Where are parents & elders of the community. They want to be recognised in the Constitution but they need to take responsibility.
Easy.... personal responsibility goes a long way, but the victim industry hates that concept.
Good luck unscrambling that egg..
Domestic violence funding? Stop beating your women and children, problem solved.
Where is all the current funding going? $30 + bill per year and that’s not enough?
How about arresting the violent perpetrators rather than leaving to bash each other up in the left’s cultural petting zoo?
My Irish ancestors were starved/persecuted out of their home by the British. My mother was orphaned in WWII. If I quit work, drank daily & beat my family, nobody would excuse my actions because of my family’s past but we apply the soft bigotry of low expectations to Aboriginals.

Anthony Albanese calls for government ‘cooperation’ to deal with Alice Springs crime wavePrime Minister Anthony Albanese says he wants to make sure there is cooperation between the state and federal governments to deal with the crime wave in Alice Springs. The Prime Minister arrived in Alice Springs on Tuesday after pressure to intervene and help solve the rampant crime taking place in the Northern Territory town. He said these are “complex problems” which require full solutions. “We’ve agreed to establish a central Australian Regional Controller and that person will be Dorrelle Anderson,” Mr Albanese said during a media conference in Alice Springs. “Dorrelle is the right person for the job, someone who is experienced and someone familiar with this local community, but someone who will have responsibility to make sure we get federal and state programs coordinated in the best possible way. “To make sure they are the most effective but also they provide for the best use of taxpayers dollars to make a substantial difference.” Make sure you go to the other basket case places. you caused it you fix it My guess NT won’t be fixed till after the voice gets a yes got ?
