Abbott in Yirrkala

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Mon, 15/09/2014 - 9:06am

The PM has now 'fulfilled' his election promise of spending one week in an Indigenous community. However, this promise to repair the relationship between conservatives and the First Peoples of this country could have ulterior motives. Congratulations! He's chosen Yirrkala, perhaps one of the best remote communities in Australia. The town where the world-famous band, Yothu Yindi originate from. Yirrkala is also located on the picturesque coastline of East Arnhem Land with crystal clear water and an abundance of Burramundi.
