As we know, the ABC never lets the facts get in the way of a story, as the last two weeks have once again demonstrated.
The ABC have used the cover of alleged"conspiracy theories" to spread misinformation and disinformation about the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples , and the impact it might have on Australia if implemented -and separately, yet another judge has ruled against the ABC in another drawn out defamation case regarding former special forces soldier Heston Russell.
At this point the national broadcaster ran a clip of a discussion between me and Cory Bernardi on Sky News’ ‘Bernardi’ program, where I said: “Now, there are 46 separate articles and the ones that everyone at home should be very concerned about are the ones that suggest there should be a separate Indigenous nation within Australia, separate indigenous government, separate indigenous economy, rules, law, institutions.”In fact, until the ABC 7.30 segment I was unaware examining or questioning UNDRIP could attract such ridiculous claims.
It is a fact that the Human Rights Commission’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commissioner has written: The UNDRIP also said: “Indigenous peoples have the right to maintain and strengthen their distinct political, legal, economic, social and cultural institutions” while separately exercising their rights in “the State” if they ‘choose’ .
Janet Albrechtsen, who has a Doctorate in Juridical Studies, warned about the legal and constitutional implications of arguments made by academics Gabrielle Appleby, Ron Levy and Helen Whalan.
