Stop Colin Barnett premier of Western Australia

The issue

Closing remote Aboriginal communities in Australia and moving Aboriginal people into the cities will cause displacement and discourse. Aboriginal people have lived thousands of years in these remote areas,they have cultural significances to the people, yet Colin Barnett the Premier of Western Australia is making yet another excuse to remove Aboriginal people off their home lands. Colin Barnett has a purpose for this land for mining and jobs. The premier does not care for cultural history of Australia's first people, its all about economy, greed and capitalism for  uranium mining investors. Two hundred and twenty seven years Australia's first people have been subjected to being removed from their lands. We have been subjected to continual discourse, disruption from our culture. Our well being has and still is being compromised. Please support my course, so Aboriginal people will not be subjected to further alienation of a culture that holds so many stories that hold significant sacred history for well over 65,000 years.
