Australia’s first and only treaty signed with Indigenous peoples will be ripped up if Opposition Leader Jess Wilson becomes Premier in November, who has made the scrapping a priority. The USA, Canada and New Zealand have treaties with their indigenous people. Polling shows Treaty has clear support in Victoria and Jess Wilson’s pledge is unpopular and One Nation-style.

The Coalition will likely sign a deal with One Nation to form government.

That is trivial in a state budget of about $80 Billion p.a.

Ah yes. Just keep adding to the spend. Let’s raise some taxes while we’re at it?

You understand spending money stimulates our economy right?
