Ah so this is something like the guantanamo based in Cuba... I see

Study says...... Guardian has a habit of finding bs studies

I hate these devisive reports, is there any native Australian who wants water and has been denied? No, do they practice water intensive farming? No, just a few recent upstarts, so whats the problem?

If water rights are hereditary, how is it possible that indigenous peoples don't own 100% of the water rights? Oh right, capitalism only applies to white people.

Australia is racist
