Ewan Saunders comments on Northern Territory intervention

Ewan Saunders, candidate for Brisbane, Green Left Weekly,  26 June 2010, As Socialist Alliance candidates visit the NT in July to attend a national Indigenous and non-Indigenous convergence, Prime Minister Julia Gillard and opposition leader Tony Abbott will be sitting a very comfortable distance away from the communities affected by the NT intervention.

It makes for a revealing comparison: they can disagree on taxing the mining mega-corporations, but they can agree on stripping away the hard-won land rights of Aboriginal people in this country to hand over the land to mining interests.………Youth candidates to witness NT intervention | Green Left Weekly
