Yeah mate,

I know how the bureaucrats work (used to be one). It's abt "if you don't then we may need to....." if you get my drift and here the greenies are a real pain (urban votes and lotsa cash). In reality they're stuck in a neo colonial mindset "teaching the natives etc". (and then there's community politics)

This holds true specially in far north QLD (Cape York) where the local mobs (Kuku Yalaendji, Yidinji etc) wanted to continue cattle grazing over what greenies renamed "Wild Rivers" area and blackmailed the State to declare it a National Park. Cape York Lands Council (Pearsons etc) went feral as it is subject to a recognised (and undisputed) Federal Native Title claim but still the Feds won't move to slap down the urban greens as they hold the key to the next QLD election and Labour govt is on the nose.
