Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has praised the Lawler Government’s recent youth curfew in Alice Springs and his own directive to the government last year to reinstate grog bans in remote communities, saying during his visit today that those measures worked and “we need to not be ideological about this”.
Mr Albanese spent Monday night in Alice and the first half of Tuesday meeting with locals, including town council, students and teachers at Centralian Senior College, community advocates, the Aboriginal Congress, tourism representatives and the Chamber of Commerce to assess the impact of the $250 million funding package for the region announced during crisis meetings with the NT Government last January.
Paech is a disgrace.
Paech says no race based policies but then happily spends millions of tax payers money on race based organisations and councils who only exist to benefit one race.
Paech should have resigned over the damage and harm he has caused Alice Springs by allowing grog to flow.
Paech is the most race based ideolog in the Parliament. Nothing Paech says or does is balanced for the good of all.
Paech is a disgrace.
youth curfew, Mr Albanese said it was “an enormous success”.
If it was so good why not keep it going?? I believe it was a break for town to some degree.
“Mr Paech, but did not speak at the press conference,” Good, never has anything constructive or relevant to say anyway.
I’ll take a positive when there is one to be had but need to query the value for money aspect here. I’d expect much more for $300M. Where and how is it being spent? Why has there not been an audit of the allocation and outcomes of this spending? How does Albo know something is working without conducting an audit? Predictable platitudes from those who act in self-interest do not count.
