Oconnem, to Tony Abbott's credit; he did acknowledge that he was profoundly disappointed and I believe he genuinely wanted improvement on his watch.
But it was Tony Abbott's government that chose not to listen what senior Aborigines were saying as Joe Hockey delivered that rotten 2014 Budget. Abbott decided to carry responsibility for Aboriginal Affairs and he made all those promises about what he would do at the 2013 Election to address the GAP between indigenous and non-indigenous Australians.
Now that it's apparent that Abbott's dropped the ball, the polite recommendation offered up by some of those same Aborigines to Abbott this morning was for the LNP to listen to and to respect what they're saying!
Just a couple of days ago Abbott promised yet again to CONSULT more. Well everyone's waiting!
