    Now I must not leave out the Welsh, so we have, Jenkins(Des that's for you ) then Jones, Williams, Griffiths (thought there was more than 5 of them)Evans, Edwards think that is about it.
    were the current Welsh not originally the English, chased into the hills by the Angles and Saxons?

    You may be correct Tony but the only two Angles tribes I can remember were the Isoceles and the Obtuse

    Where does the hypotenuse fit in then ? Maybe that’s where the Square tribe fitted in ? JS

    Yes JS you are correct.
    The mariners who first went there, found the Pygmies and others was the Chinese in the 13th century.
    Evidence has been found in manuscripts from Chia of that time.
    DNA shows connections with not only India but also Africa.
    Many years ago, maybe 50,000 the land mass split leaving Oz as one island, a big one at that.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Well then they are similar to any other country and it’s past . I was lead to believe that the aborigines already were extremely well looked after moneytarily . Giving them more again and more privileges is putting them as Demi gods and well above ordinary citizens. I usually vote for the person and not the party , but think the present incumbent is slightly lacking in the noggin or maybe he is hearing Voices in his own head. JS

    While some parts might seem elaborate, it's refreshing to see inclusivity in the spotlight. Also, that new Wallabies strip sounds like a masterpiece of symbolism! It's heartening to witness such thoughtful gestures regardless of the game's length. However, I don't like long games, that's why I play bingo games that pay real money. I find it quick, entertaining, and useful.

    I have no idea what the voice is about, and I think neither does Albanese, otherwise he would have told us. From my perspective , they can vote, get unemployment benefits as well as all the Medicals, they can get a passport, in fact every thing a white person can, the fact that the children do not attend to school is not the fault of the Govt but the parents, I am twixt a rock and a hard place as to which way to vote.

    #19 well there is no way that I want any government of any kind to interfere with the Constitution of Australia , it was put in place by the original settlers and by people who knew what they were doing and if nothing else it should be kept as is, as a monument to those same people who were responsible for the good fortunes of this country. They had more intelligence in their little pinkies than this lot in their total brains added together. Cheers JS
    What we want is Institution, Constitution , and Prospppppppperity , (not Prostitution). Can visualise the results already of a yes vote , you won’t even own your own house , as the land won’t be yours. JS .
