Dear Phil the Dill.
Highlight the full word 'NON-KOORI' rather than try to twist the truth of it.

I'm not ignorant (as your argument falls flat regarding the above mentioned).

I know the Harold Thomas story well, have for a very long time. Didn't need a wiki link back then.
Do you dispute that it was his wish that he did not want his artwork used as a political tool by the Koori?

Kooris are just a group of mixed race Aboriginal people in Sthn NSW.

In QLD & Nthn NSW they call themselves Murris.

In Sthn WA they call themselves Noongars.

Do you agree with Dutton refusing to display the Aboriginal and Tores Strait Island flags Freediver....Do you think this act of rejection will bring Australian's together....Feel free to have an opinion???

Huh

Not only will it bring Australians together, Phil, but it will also lower inflation, reduce mortgage interest rates, put an end to global warming (43 degrees in Perth today), and solve the housing crisis overnight.

Say what you will about Dutton - the "man" who used to kidnap Aboriginal children, drive them out into the bush, steal their shoes and then make them walk home (allegedly) - but he sure knows how to focus on the issues that are important to the average Australian.

Country coppers didn't just do that to Aboriginal kids .... it was done to white kids who played up as well.

Most of 'em didn't wear shoes.

Get off your Aboriginal soapbox.

That's the whole idea, Phil.

That's what conservative ALP LW politics is all about - creating division.

Dutton and his fellow criminals have no desire to help Australians - they merely want power and money.

Fixed ....

and I know who want power & money

it isn't the LNP.

I think it is a storm in a teacup. But he is hopefully signalling that he understands a more fundamental shift in public attitude - that we do not support the government treating people differently according to their race. And we are fed up with corrupt, unaccountable, unelected aboriginal "representatives" who, surprise surprise, always seem to line their own pockets and never actually solve anything. At least, that is what I am hoping it signals. I don't really care about the flag itself, and wonder about people who do.

Do you care about the flag Phil?

As I am related to Aboriginal people I accept their place in Australian history....Is it asking too much they are represented by their own flag....If it doesn't matter why is Dutton making it such an issue Freediver....Why should Aboriginal people accept the Australian flag Freediver....Do you think this act will bring Australian's together by rejecting Aboriginal representation Freediver or you just don't give a crap about Aboriginal people who are all corrupt, unaccountable, unelected aboriginal "representatives???

Huh

Mattress relation? Grin

Funny how conservatives always want to make race an issue.

You really said that? unbelievable.

The referendum about the Voice & all the issues from the Statement of the Heart that Albanese said he would fully implement ..... are all about race.

The Aboriginal & the Torres Strait Islander flags are all about race.

Every Australian under one flag.

Yes, it is too much to ask on a national level. They are not co-sovereign.

Aborigines should accept the Australian flag because they are....er.... Australians.

Remember the republic nonsense that went on, part of that was a new flag. Every man and his neighbours dog wanted a new flag. Now the UK based flag is so important to all of us. Don't get me wrong I support our current flag it is better than all the other options (one of the worlds great flags). I even personally think that the Eureka flag should be given a better status.

I bet Qantas would be overjoyed with their emblem being the National Flag?

That being the one at the top of those photos.

What we don't need is another kangaroo symbol on out flag. Roll Eyes

Bollocks dickhead.

They are already recognised as Australians.

It retards like you that don't seem to get that ... what you're advocating is recognition by "race".

It seems they want to be seen as Aboriginals & TI's other to Australian.

And who recognised these as Australian flags?-- why of course a Labor Govt pushing its identity politics agenda.

The use of flags by either group is cultural appropriation.

They are not co-sovereigns.

That's what divides the country you lumpyheaded numpty.
