Politicians, activists and elites are constantly pushing the same lines, day in, day out, to impress their inner-city friends. It’s on your TVs, before every sporting match, even when your plane lands. And worse still: the government is spending HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of taxpayer dollars on ceremonies that achieve nothing except divide people. Jacinta Nampijinpa Price put it best: “I don't believe that we should be spending $450,000 a term on Welcome to Country, when that isn't actually improving the life of a marginalised Indigenous Australia.” She’s right. These activist-led Welcome to Country ceremonies are unnecessary, wasteful and un-Australian.
