Australia voted against Declaration on the Rights
Mar 3^rd, 2018 at 5:46pm

Was it a surprise that Australia voted against the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

Racism still abounds in Australia mainly fomented by poms and closet poms who still hate and despise blacks.

Neck chains were used on Australian blacks until the 1960s.

Picture. A whole tribe arrested for killing one farm animal.

It was not until the 1940s that the use of neck chains on Aboriginal prisoners was phased out.

They were still used informally in some areas until the 1960s.

The shocking pictures emerged today on the tenth anniversary of the adoption of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

The landmark international agreement was intended to tackle the discrimination and human rights violations against the 370 million indigenous people living in more than 70 countries.

The declaration was meant to end the oppression of 370million indigenous people in 370 countries
It was adopted by the General Assembly on September 13, 2007, with 144 countries voting in favour.

The four nations that voted against it were Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States. Eleven countries abstained.

Last year Canada officially removed its objector status to UNDRIP, and the other three objectors have, to various degrees, changed their position.

The declaration is not legally binding but the UN believes it reflects the commitments of member states to eliminate human rights violations against indigenous people.

What did you expect from the Labor party and the Coalition? By a long shot, they're past their use-by date

Time for you to stop being racist and put the blame where it lies - the major parties which have a variety of ethnics, probably some even like you

Did you understand that?

The UN can believe what it wants; it won't make it so. Wink

Are we a racist nation, or one that believes in equality before the law? Are we a nation that says a person may inherit rights not given to others by virtue of their skin colour? Yes we are, but fortunately we did not sign up to an international agreement that enshrines this principle, so it is not too late.
