What a can of worms......every politician has the opportunity to progress in any direction chosen. Marion Scrymgour is not for the feint hearted as politicians who attempt to persue her have learned and learned the hard way!

Aboriginal Territorians make up almost 30 percent of the population in the NT, and their birth rate is about 60 percent higher than the non aboriginal population. A prime voting base to make or break a government.

Aboriginal communities have survived for generations without government support the real issues occur through ignorance of ill informed governments who candy coat westernising the culture for the betterment. Goodness I had better stop there else I could move onto housing, education and health funding and never leave!

Marion Scrymgour should continue in politics and I hope and pray that an aboriginal party will be in her future political sights!
