I have long been calling for an audit of the billions of taxpayer money gifted to aboriginal interests.
It certainly hasn’t benefited the folk in the outback communities. The urban activists seem to be living the rich lifestyle as they swan around in designer clothes and label the rest of us as racist.
The time has come to hold these grifters to account and audit their books if they have any.
It might be worth checking if any money goes to or is related to the US airbase at Weipa, interesting to know if the "divide and conquer" has been orchestrated from foreign afar.
I am also not sure why the royalties they get from mining companies is not taxed. Whenever I ask professionals I get a shrug of the shoulder. It is not racist to ask as it is imlied by some.
That should be front and center of every news broadcast at the moment. Hopefully, this referendum goes down, but sadly, good old Albo has already critically damaged our society. The one good thing that might come out of it, would be a royal commission into the Aboriginal industry, to expose the likes of Pearson, Burney and co.
I set up a local councils structure, and with the advice of the locals set up small businesses. Over two years I did this in Weipa South, Kowanyama, Edward River, Doomadgee, Wujal Wujal and Hopevale. I seem to remember the budget to do this was around $100,000 . Domestic violence had pretty well disappeared. The drinking bar was reopened between 4 and 6 ,the women were very happy with how things were going ,the kids were going to school, and the men and women had something to do tomorrow. The world became interesting. It's the magic word called " Work". I remember saying to some Mur ries at Kowanyama " if you give me $300 a fortnight and no work I will be down the back drinking with the rest. Within 6 months Canberra and Sydney had closed it down. And so the discusting cycle goes on . Vote NO and let's hope this whole scam is blown wide open and let the communities work out what to do with assistance.
It is a recurring tragedy in life that initial promise for radical change fails to eventuate. Noel Pearson has a considerable intellect, writes, and sometimes speaks, powerfully. His aim to transform educational outcomes for indigenous children was a noble one. It was also well founded - drawing from the "tried and true” educational tradition of structured, direct learning. It should, and does, work - and for past generations of Australians was a great vehicle for acquired literacy.
I am guessing - but I think it is probable that the Good to Great Schools program failed for the same reasons that afflict education programs (no matter how well meaning) across indigenous Australia. Truancy and marginal home support are immediate factors. When children attend sporadically it is very hard for even the most devoted teachers to maintain their enthusiasm. Discipline problems exacerbate the other problems. The result is that the retention of any teachers - let alone excellent teachers - is a challenge.
This is a problem that you can’t necessarily solve with money - as Pearson may have tried - I don’t know. Unfortunately, he does not seem to be an individual that takes criticism or opposition well. And that is putting it mildly. A shame. The ideas behind the Cape York education vision were good.
PM needs to have a royal commission into where the $550 m has gone to the indigenous people and an audit into where money has gone to Noel Pearson. Figures on the internet show that his wealth is $31.5 m. How is this possible
I once had a large financial dealing with Pearson back in early 2000 whilst I was working for a company in Cairns. I met with him and he wanted to but a very large amount of fishing quota so that he could use it to benefit his people in the Cape and start their own fishing venture. To this day I have never heard of it been used and have often wondered as to what happened to very valuable quota. It was over the million mark.
All of the above accusations of Pearson as a "grifter' are libelous, and face legal challenge unless real evidence, i.e. facts and figures, can be produced. Please provide, in detail, with full accounting. Otherwise, the accusers face legal action...
If Pearson believed these comments and many many others similar in nature are libelous, then he would have initiated legal challenges !! but no, nothing but crickets from him. Where there is smoke there is fire ! Perhaps Pearson should provide his own "accountability" and "outcomes" for all his projects ? to silence the many critics, but I highly doubt he will.
All the government needs to do is conduct a thorough audit on behalf of the taxpayers. The ATO for example will crucify you to get back $100. So I dont understand this absolute bullshit double standard where billions of dollars are sent to the aboriginal industry and it is not accounted for and weak politicians do not call for an accounting. What the hell is wrong with this country??? The aboriginal industry has serious vested financial interests in keeping the outback indigenous poor to perpetuate the myth that they lack support. Nothing could be further from the truth. There is graft and corruption throughout the disbursement of funds going to "aboriginal cause". If any scheme needed a thorough investigation to the extent of a Royal commission, it is the aboriginal industry for a certainty. Yet Albanese says NO. I smell a thousand dead rats in all this.

Need forensic audit of all the hundreds of billions. Pearson is desperate for yes to get up so he will be safe from investigation.
An audit and financial scrutiny to see where hundreds of billions meant for marginalised aboriginals has gone
