It is no longer viable.

It is history

Lefties are so proud of it

Oh, dearie, dearie, me, Matty, you know they claimed Alice Springs was finished after WWII but it revived itself.  Guess what is going to happen to a town like Alice once all the troublesome White Fellas are gone?  Just like Broome it will revive itself under it's new ownership.  Run along, you tiresome Trolling parasite, back to your mother's basement where you belong.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

You really are something, Brian.

Alice Springs has an indigenous proportion of about 20% (year 2021 Australian Bureau of Statistics). If 18,000 non-indigenous people left the town, troublesome or not, the town would fall into economic collapse. All the corroborees, dot paintings, and singing won't bring back the tourists. All the efforts made by the locals remaining will only see the town struggle to survive. I mean, if the indigenous there made a strong effort to live social, productive lives, the town might well be a good place to live. But the reality is that Alice Springs has residents there with considerable attitude problems. Without those non-indigenous residents around to keep businesses running and feasible, the town would just be another basketcase.

Communities aren’t safe if laws are routinely broken and no one does anything about it. Jobs are created by commerce, but businesses won’t set up in places where violence and property damage are rampant; nor will communities have proper services if nurses, teachers and police are not safe there.

https://www.cis.org.au/commentary/opinion/we-can-and-must-stop-the-violence-and-...

So much from one article written by Warren Mundine.... we salute the facts here, Captain Sobel - not the man... get with it, turkeys. 

It ate Sobel alive that he was removed from command of Easy Company and then saw the victim he chose - arguably the best in it - rise to supercede him in rank and accolades.

You get people like that in life - they think that by attacking the very best they have, they will show all the others that nobody gets on top of them and they are top dog... controller madness ..... fortunately for Winters and Easy there was Colonel Sink with more sense.  It's happened to me...  and the arsehole that did it ruined that company.

Why because I refuse to accept all the doom and gloom that is peddled by so many Racists?  Because there are other places where Indigenous Australians run the show and run it quite successfully?  What does that suggest about Matty's life experiences?  He really needs to get out of his mother's basement more often.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Brian,

Out of 15,000 residents of Broome, just over 3,000 people there are indigenous. Out of the working age indigenous people, only 85% are employed. For a region that screams out for workers, that is a fairly low employment rate. But, it is not bad, considering that Broome is well away from the cities.

Much like Alice Springs, if 12,000 non-indigenous Broome residents packed up their stuff and left for elsewhere to live, you would see the economy of Broome come to a near collapse. This is not the case if it were the other way around. Although, yes, those indigenous mining workers leaving town would impact the economy, among a few other workers in essential services. But, Broome would survive as a non-indigenous town.

A lie, cockwomble.  A complete lie.


Western Australia's first Aboriginal Upper House MP has revealed for the first time her life she was scared to live in her own Broome home due to youth dysfunction in town.

In an passionate speech to parliament last week, Labor MP Rosetta Sahanna delved into her own experience living in "the Bronx" as she implored colleagues to help struggling families lift themselves out of dysfunction.

"In the last six months I had to get my son to come and stay with me, because that is how scared I was," she said.

"In the 36 years of my life I have been living in that house, that is the first time I have been frightened of the youth of Broome."

"I was born and bred in that town but it is scary s***" - Rosetta Sahanna
Ms Sahanna, a Ngarinyin-Bardi Jawi woman, was the first Aboriginal person elected to serve in WA's Upper House since it was established nearly 200 years ago.

Prior to politics she worked a long career in Aboriginal health and youth services, including senior roles at Nirrumbuk Aboriginal Corporation, the Kimberley Land Council and as a counsellor at St Mary's College.

Ms Sahanna said her fears stemmed from her neighbour's house, which was lived in by a young girl and was regularly "full" of eight to 14-year-old children.

"She is a young girl I have known for her whole life - I sat down with my family and said that I did not want to get this girl in trouble," she said.

"I did not want her to lose the house either, because that means her family will be out in the street.

"I then spoke to Homeswest about it because once a month I go into my front yard and carport and pick up used needles."

Police Minister Paul Papalia, centre, addresses media in Broome about Operation Regional Shield

Providing mentors, honing in on supporting struggling families, and addressing "decades" of failed social policies where among the measures Ms Sahanna said were needed.

Ms Sahanna said agencies needed a stronger focus on the children who weren't going to school and that many programs designed to help were still "too white".

"This generation of kids is going to slip by - there are only two options for them," she said.

"They are either the next generation of kids who are going to fill the prisons or they are the next generation of kids who are going to suicide.


"Let us give them some hope of getting out of where they are."

Her speech came off the back of a two-day meeting in Broome in late January in which Aboriginal organisations agreed to an open dialogue to help at-risk youths.

It also came after a series of meetings between Kimberley shire presidents and State Government ministers in relation to the crime wave.

Topics discussed included on-country facilities, safe houses, the banned drinkers register, overcrowded housing and school attendance.

Kimberley Regional Group chairman David Menzel said he hoped the State Government's focus on crime in the Kimberley would continue beyond recent announcements.

None of these programs, 'too white' or otherwise, ever change anything except for the worse, and that includes 'the voice' which is doing nothing but giving impetus to the rioting and crime and violence against Whitey in the lead-up to it.

Like the guy wrote about the 'Congestion Charge' in London, wherein a car driving into the city pays (at that time ) eight pounds a day - the same as minimum wage - just to be there, the idea being that would cut traffic.  didn't work, of course, and the traffic is worse.  The guy woke up to the reality that the ONLY people who would be voting on this in London NEVER HAD TO PAY IT!  It's like the dorks in Melbadishu and such who will never go there but will get to vote on some voice myth without ever once meeting a single Aborigine, let alone being mugged of assaulted or robbed by one.

They will never have to pay the direct costs............. but all those hundreds of thousands of Chinese immigrants inside their little boxes in Sydney, who live an insulated and near ghettoed life and lifestyle just like at home, and who've never set eyes on a Kaffir and who know nothing about Australia, will vote on it....

Offering the prospect of a 'voice' that will resolve nothing has only stirred the Abos to get in touch with their inner activist or inner warrior and set sail upon the stormy seas of waging war on whitey.... a war they cannot win... and the whole thing will be a disaster.

Children 'think they will come back to life'
Three years later, when the victim's 10-year-old half-sister also took her own life at another community, local teaching staff had no idea of her family background.

The younger girl's former teacher, Stuart Klose, said the information would have helped him detect signs of self-harm but access to her files was difficult.

Aboriginal youth suicide inquest
"With today's technology I can't see why the information can't be made available to us [more readily]," he said.

He said suicide was so pervasive some children believed they could kill themselves and come back to life.

The day's testimony described life in some remote communities as highly dysfunctional, beset by substance abuse, and serviced by support workers who were often left without crucial pieces of information.

In one township, many children were described as being left to fend for themselves, often hungry and desperate.

Girls as young as 10 fell into the clutches of sexual predators who would lure them with cannabis, soft drinks and cigarettes.


"It's not hard to groom the child that has nothing," Ms Webb said.

In that community, 13 per cent of residents were registered child sex offenders.

When asked about her response to allegations of child abuse, Ms Webb said she was reluctant to talk about it with men in the community due to concerns about being culturally appropriate.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-07-17/indigenous-youth-suicide-inquest-takes-ev...


Doing it is "culturally appropriate" but talking about it is not.  Aboriginal cultural dysfunction in a nutshell. The Voice would also be very "culturally appropriate".

No because you won't accept the reality of what's happening in the Alice, say it's nothing because the problem is caused by Aboriginals & white people there don't mean squat to woke morons like you.

The harder you rail against the realities the stupider you look.

You sure that's not a typo? Because that's a very good employment rate for Aboriginals in Broome.

In fact it's outstanding.

That's why I am skeptical about it.

Yeah, I did try to scratch my head whether it is 45% employed, or 85% employed. I am beginning to think that it is 85% in some sort of work course (employed or unemployed but job searching/studying). 85% employment would be what Rockhampton has for job-eligible people.
