And she'll win too!

Exactly George. Jacinta is doing the right thing. So many on the left chose to do the wrong thing. Why? Self interest, corruption?

Amazing that if she was not a member of the right side of politics media etc would be interviewing her daily however, because she is of the right they attack her and I mean her, for daring to expose their and the lefts neglect of the Aboriginal people as the left panders to the activists and Aboriginal Industry who generally are on the taxpayers payroll via various Aboriginal Institutions fully funded by the taxpayer. For any minister (as the Police and Families minister of the NT did) to state Dutton and Jacinta are simply using Aboriginal people as a political football when statistics demonstrate clearly the extent of rape and assault on children under 5 years of age. In every age group from 0-15 the NT was 300% or more above the National average yet the Territory government says it is under control etc. Would hate to see the statistics if it ever reached what they would call a crisis if they claim there is no crisis at present.

There certainly was very little help received over the decade of LNP Federal government in Canberra. The problems were simply allowed to fester and become much worse. Perhaps that was what attracted Jacinta to the Country Party?? 😮😢😅😊

@@Tyronepeader Nice deflection Tyronepeader. Police and health are state run programs although Federal funding is specifically granted by Federal Governments to the states to administer. It is not a Federal Government responsibility to administer hospitals and police but state and Territory Governments responsibility 100%. Sad that you in your response attempted to blame the Coalition Federal Government of the last decade yet sheeted ZERO blame to the Labor Territorial Governments during the same decade. This is why the problem festered as Labor simply plays politics with Aboriginal lives granting them symbolic gestures that do NOTHING to improve the lives of those outside major cities. It is also why the Coalition and others (including many rural and outback Aborigines) oppose the voice as it will only benefit city based activists and the Canberra and other Capital City elite Aborigines. Once again the rural, regional and outback Aborigine will get nothing but empty words. And if you say I talk crap ask yourself why Albo and Burney refused to meet an elected delegation from the outback but at the same time were discussing the Voice with city and Canberra based delegates. None of the delegates they met with were elected by their peers. All were appointed by the Aboriginal industry in Canberra and other Capital Cities. Real democracy in action wasn't it? Real listening to Aboriginal Voices wasn't it? And I might add, 70% of those Albo and Burney did speak with have all been members of every voice governments have listened to over the last 40 years or so. NONE have improved anything for Regional/outback Aborigines in 40 years but here they all were with their snouts in the Canberra trough once again.

Oh, this is beyond awful. It hits any parents heart & my throat constricted. I really hope & pray that you get this changed.

Damn Albo and his head nodding muppets.

And many others

Nah mate she is a typical sell out to the rich corporate criminals in this country.

I was only thinking the very same thing the other day, except just NO TO THE VOICE...

We also needs t-shirts, mugs and bumper stickers saying “Defund The ABC”.

Price and Dutton still haven't produced any evidence or made a statement to NT police, i find this strange.

Exactly, I saw this behaviour in the late sixties, little children had to be removed from violent families. They would not be alive now if it has not happened. These are now calling the stolen generation. I know earlier mixed race children we taken but that had not happened since the late forties.

All those things apart from the Jacinta part are literally reflected in stats but you do you.

@@Whoisthis1111 someone has to take those stats 😉.

She is now a politician, and tows the Dutton line. It is easy to quote stats and tear up when speaking of the abuse of children, but this is not new. The Coalition government has been in office for 20 of the past 27 years and these issues did not appear there or at other places overnight. Dutton is advoking for more of the same which places the onus back on law enforcement and policies that have not worked because of the other vital needs in other areas. A voice on issues that affect only them may, just may be part of the answer.

@@oldgolfer7435 There are certain Indigenous activists who will scream 'stealing the children' if the at risk Aboriginal children are given the safe haven that has been suggested by responsible Indigenous voices!

@@oldgolfer7435 you clearly forgot about the local and regional voices that would inform government. That’s been a coalition policy and was being worked on to be implemented. Not to mention his other policies aren’t even public yet. I agree the coalition should’ve done more. But work was starting to be done by the end of their term. They’re the ones who commissioned reports to see how they can tackle issues more effectively.

Yes she has, unfortunately not many of them are Aboriginal.

​@@lastjellyontheplate8828 She has plenty of support from Aboriginals in Central Australia.

@@margaretarmstrong2445 that's good then, I think it's mainly the ones stirred up by the activists.

I like that idea! 👍

What improvements were made over a decade by the Federal LNP government with the dire problems in Alice Springs? What progress did Jacinta accomplish as deputy Mayor of Alice Springs? 😮😂😊

She would get my vote

The socialist looney left hate this women becuase she tells it how it is. She in fact has had two of her family members both women killed in very violent circumstances. She is the best thing that has happened in our Federal government for yonks. The 'swamp' don't know how to handle her because she does not cow down to them!

So you never heard about the grooming gangs in your own country, same thing

@Mary Martin yeah I heard of the grooming gangs. I'm just surprised that this is such a big problem in Australia. My brother lives in perth Australia and I'm obviously a little bit blinded by the image I had of your country in my head. It's a tragedy to realise how widespread this problem is. I hope that the children can receive the protection from abusers wherever they are. .

Australia has all the problems that are in UK, and yes, even CANADA 🇨🇦.

​@@marymartin1106 This has nothing to do with grooming. This is about violent control. It's a cultural thing that has been covered up.

Tennis actually, but your point is taken

When we have a Federal LNP government in power in Canberra for over a decade which mostly ignored Alice Springs dire difficulties and did little to help bring a solution and someone like you is completely unaware of this appalling record of neglect, it highlights the fact that Sky News propaganda is simply incapable of informing aware Australians. 😮😅😊

Yes, the Aboriginal agencies are funded to the tune of more than $30 billion dollars a year. If they contributed to help fix the problem, as they should, their funds would dry up. This, like other current agendas, is about power and control through money.

Yes! Stop pandering to 'culture' and apply the law of the land to all people, enough pussy-footing around.

We do, but unfortunately not many aboriginal do, if white Australians get involved, the likes of Lidia Thorpe scream 'racism' the people themselves need to recognise they have a massive problem and stop hiding behind 'culture'

There are dozens of Aboriginal agencies that are not doing their job! The Aboriginals get more than $30 billion a year for 800,00 people. Those that run the agencies are getting rich so if they go in and solve the problems the funding will dry up. Money corrupts! If the white man removes these kids from the very real danger they are in then the whole "stolen generation" is raised again. This is something that the Aboriginal agencies should be assisting the white people who genuinely care to resolve. Above all these kids need education, care and a safe place to live. The Aboriginal elites need to give the children in the bush the same opportunities that they had.

Its alcohol definitely. I am a retired nurse who worked throughout the outback, the Alice, Mt Isa etc and from what I witnessed it always came back to the fact that our indigenous people cannot handle alcohol and it has been the leading cause of all the problems amongst our aboriginal communities. It makes them insane.

Can you speak louder so the people in the back can hear you.

I agree with all but your last sentence, I don't think it's going to be at all easy.

Jacinta was part of a local council until the last election. She’s only been in a position where she can effect change (if they were still in gov ofc) as of the last 10 months. To even pin this on her is stupid especially considering labor has been in control for 2 terms now in the NT as well. This is a state and federal issue. More so state but feds can launch investigations and what not to show where the system is failing (AKA state gov). Libs needed this reset to get their heads on straight. We will see how well they do now.

Where are the Aboriginal agencies in all this? Tens of billions of dollars at their disposal every year and instead of helping their own people they are lining their own pockets! These agencies have been in place for decades so they can't keep blaming the white man. They need to step up and work side by side with all members of the communities, black or white. And as far as your criticism of Jacinta Price, she is the only person that has had the courage to speak the truth as to what's happening in the Centre.

She 😊has not stayed silent up to this point. She has written articles highlighting the sexual abuse and domestic violence up to two years ago and I ha very read them. She has tried but she has been ignored especially by the Northern Territory Government.

@@domenica5714 really?? It's funny how she said all these things but you say nobody chose to act. As I said the whole lot should be sacked and they should be made to repay their salary. They are all the problem if they are no trying to fix it.

@Knight I understood what you said. But is the government acting now? I wanted to make it clear that she had spoken about this not just now but for quite a while. I have also seen articles about doctors and nurses speaking about abused children presenting to hospital.

ABSOLUTELY!

Exactly! Our son's best friend was taken from his family because of abuse and whenever he hears someone banging on about the stolen children, he tells them it was the absolute best thing that happened to him. They took them for a reason and now they're too scared of being called racist to save the little ones.

@@lastjellyontheplate8828 100%. Get some backbone and start locking up these parents and putting the kids in loving homes.

Definitely getting my NO vote

Happens all the time when the truth is put out there. They've understated the number of comments too.

She is 'imagining' nothing! It is happening but it's too painful for you to hear. There is so much more to Aboriginal culture than didgeridoos and dot paintings. I suggest you do some detailed research. The Aboriginal people led a harsh and sometimes brutal life, it was a way to keep order.

This mess wasn't created by our parents, this is about cultural differences. What we would call domestic violence is a part of their traditional culture. The proliferation of drugs and alcohol just made it a whole lot worse. There is no easy fix to what's happening in the Centre, but black and white need to be on the same side.

@@margaretarmstrong2445 so what you mean to tell us Margaret is that aborigines are inherently violent ?

She is actually a Country Liberals Senator, and yes she is definitely doing a great job.

If he has an inherited past then so do the whole of Labor, drone on about how squeaky clean those fools are. 🤡

@@slavbrav69 I was referencing what happened after the Europeans arrived. For a variety of reasons a population of aboriginals which was either 3000 or 15000, take your pick, dwindled to 400, these were moved to various islands off Tasmania.

You are absolutely right, some of these kids speak only their own language. The Aboriginal activists were educated and likely went to boarding school and then claim that they were part of the stolen generation. They are the ones who have been poisoned by extreme left politics. They complain bitterly, mourning the loss of a life that they never knew. They need to stop complaining and get themselves to Central Australia and live there for a while. They are speaking out for groups of Aboriginal people without having any understanding of the situation they are living with. These groups of Aboriginals are trying to live life according to Aboriginal lore but it really isn't working out for them. Put drugs and alcohol in the mix and the kids are neglected and abused. What chance do you think there is that they are going to be sent to school? I feel for the decent people in Central Australia, black and white that are being judged in all this. No one wants what is happening out there. The Aboriginal activists need to let go of their politics and get in there and help! As it is now they are contributing to the situation.

Very few indigenous people ever consider joining the Country Party as an intelligent way of assisting their community. 😮😂😅😊

How can the elite city Aboriginals keep asking for money if the problem's fixed. They don't want it fixed, they just want to make it seem like the white man is not doing enough. They have made it political, they have made it about race. We need to audit the money being handed out to see just where it's going because in certainly isn't going to the people in remote areas. Power and greed, they don't really care.
