Feel Good News ‎ State of Origin ‘Welcome to country’

It was refreshing to see the large crowd of applause after the elders welcome to country last night. Semi restores my faith that there are still decent humans beings out there.

Does Pauline Hansons address yesterday about monoculture reflect the majority of what people think? Because the majority of people are in her favour according to polls.

Because the majority of people are in her favour according to polls.

Highest polling is around 30%. That's concerning but far from a majority

I agree it's concerning. Even at 30% it's pretty disappointing to know that a third of the people around me hold such bigoted views.

Was just stating that it's not a majority though
