Note how the far right like to ridicule without proving an argument supported by any links even when patently wrong?

 

After European settlers arrived in 1788, thousand of aborigines died from diseases; colonists systematically killed many others. At first contact, there were over 250,000 aborigines in Australia. The massacres ended in the 1920 leaving no more than 60,000.

What are the British monarchy’s historical links to slavery? | Monarchy | The Guardian

Elizabeth the first was no blood relation of the house of Windsor and the Guardian supported slavery in the 1860's, pot kettle black there. The Guardian supported the CSA and slated Lincoln after his death, they were right about that at least.

You've twice asserted that aborigines want their country back without any evidence to show that's true. About time you left that argument alone unless you want to support your claim with evidence.
