"I tried to start the process of suggesting a name, that we work with West Tamar and George Town councils, but the method I was proposing wasn't supported," he said."I'm more than happy to revisit it though. An issue – particularly in George Town and West Tamar – is that people might not like change."
The government has resisted calls to alter this, but a spokesperson said they were "aware of the issue and is taking advice".RSL Tasmania gave in-principle support in 2021 for a Frontier War memorial in the Queen's Domain area, near Hobart's cenotaph. Project manager Marni Ritz described the idea as a "place space", as opposed to a statue or other physical monument.
In 1833, the remaining 57 Aboriginal people removed from their lands were moved to Wybalenna on Flinders Island.The few who survived Wybalenna were sent to a camp at Oyster Cove.The Tasmanian government is now moving ahead with a treaty and truth-telling process, but this has already encountered challenges.
They were conquered back in the day....maybe if they give up all the welfare and other entitlements Aussies generally would respect more!
ABC, nothing has changed. Still banging the woke drum and trying to groom children into being gay. If the ABC board is not completely replace by First Nations people only, then it should be decommissioned.
Im frustrated i cant add a fourth story to my housedue to Council regulations. Does that mean i can force the council to pull up stumps
Smash to the ground we need to take back how ancestors rights land change what is still forced on us you forced enough of what u claim is the right way live like humans not wild animals lol but force ME to live with out housing or ability to get around and your way is humanity
To suit both parties, the elders should be permitted to nominate early Aboriginals, women and men, the Gov. then provide monuments and localities to meet those nominations. Both are equally important I believe. This should be a fair compromise. 🦘🦘🦘🦘
Wait a minute. They told me the Tasmanian aboriginals had been wiped out! Who the hell are these people, then? And why does one guy say the genocide is a myth?
Nothing has changed? Apart from the current crop of Aboriginals pushing the original inhabitant out, you mean? Why are you calling them Tasmanian Aboriginals, when the last one, Truganini, died in the 19th century! STOP with the bullshit!
Is this group you speak of funded by men with large noses and wearing small hats?
Luckily the Jews never got their way or Tasmania would be like Palestine

NT will not have ‘race-based policy’ that ‘disempowers’ Aboriginal Territorians: FylesNorthern Territory Chief Minister Natasha Fyles says the territory will not have a 'race-based policy' that 'disempowers' Aboriginal Territorians, as the government faces pressure to tackle the issue of alcohol and rising crime rates in the region. “People out of the Northern Territory need to understand the context,” she told Sky News Australia. “We have some of the most strictest alcohol supply measures, we will continue to work in that space, but we will not have a race-based policy that disempowers Aboriginal Territorians.” Self determination and self governance has worked so well in the past. Corruption, nepotism, theft and mismanagement. We should give the indigenous people a voice to parliament we can run the country like ATSIC was. This situation presents a potential matter for a ‘Voice’ to address. So give it a go ‘Voice’ protagonists! CRIME BASE POLICY!!!!

South Australia to tackle 'insulting' laws that prevent Aboriginal people giving cultural evidence in courtHearing cultural evidence from Aboriginal people is currently restricted by hearsay and opinion laws in South Australia, but the state government says it will introduce legislation to catch up with Commonwealth laws changed in 2008. Free speech and let the chips fall where they may...👍 Cultural evidence is like Dark Emu, mostly made up 😅 Am I able to just make shit up when giving evidence too? Or is Australia adopting a two-tier legal system?

Alice Springs Aboriginal council blasts previous liquor bans as 'punitive' as new restrictions beginFirst Nations communities in Alice Springs will likely choose not to restore lapsed liquor bans, despite a new promise for consultation by the Northern Territory and federal governments last night. Albo has lost control. He isn’t in charge of his own party anymore, activists are, and the kids will suffer. Punish the majority for the crimes of a few. There are differences between the races.

Hobart Council to shift citizenship ceremonies away from Australia DayCitizenship ceremonies will no longer be held on Australia Day in Hobart from next year. The Tasmanian Aboriginal Centre has welcomed the decision, saying Tasmania is leading the way in the country. What is the reason? How dumb is this ?! Jan 26th isn't even the day the so-called invasion happened !! Jan the 26th is when Australia gained their independence from Brittish rule & Australia Nationality & citezins Act passed 1948 ! Cook arrived on 28th April 1770, 1st fleet arrived Botany 18th Jan. Tasmania is free to secede from Australia at anytime.

Slow progress closing Indigenous employment gapAmid a push for an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander ASX 100 chief by 2030, workplace racism and poor retention of Indigenous staff is holding back efforts to reach employment parity. Always seems to be someone elses fault but their own. Their inability to finish high school is probably the larger barrier to becoming a CEO. Let’s fight racism with racism!?!?!?
