She is a disgrace. She was complaining about the conditions in Alice Springs a few months ago. Is that all better? What about the stolen generations ??? That’s hardly ancient history.

She is giving free license to racists to spew the same nonsense.

Her colleague Kerrynne Liddle was on 7:30 the other night attempting to defend the speech. But when it was pointed out that her mother is a member of the Stolen Generations, and that Liddle herself has said their family continues to suffer from the trauma her mother suffered, she got all defensive and started blabbering about how her hypocrisy and lying is "just a minutiae". These people are completely fake and completely full of shit.
