Sovereignty

With millions of dollars being spent on the Recognise campaign, many First Nations people are asking: Who they are trying to convince – non-Aboriginal people or Aboriginal people? The real hidden agenda is to coerce Aboriginal Nations and Peoples to become part of the Australian Constitution and by doing so consent to be governed. The Commonwealth government can then claim that Aboriginal Nations and Peoples have acquiesced. This is the main weapon the Crown has to counter our sovereignty movement. [node:read-more:link]

Having concluded his analysis of the Freedom Summit, Ghillar Michael Anderson said it was clear that a great majority of the people who attended were determined to assert their sovereignty. He acknowledged the polarity between the people of different backgrounds, something that has never been so apparent before, and saw the coming together of these groups with an understanding that each can support the other. He also reminds us that 'The Gap' is 'widening' at an alarming rate and there are great challenges for the delegates, who will need to prioritise the needs for the short, medium and long term, and lead.

First Nations and Peoples across Australia assembled in Alice Spings for a Freedom Summit.

After the two day summit, the Nations' delegates declared sovereign power and authority within the Territories of the United Tribes of the First Nations Lands.

The closure of more than half of WA's 274 remote communities is another example of how the government and Big Mining work hand in hand to steal Aboriginal land without compensation. There is a thinly veiled agenda to remove Aboriginal people from their homes so the mining industry can have easy access to land ... We are now reaching a climax in our struggle for rights and freedoms and time to take a deep breath, exhale slowly and look around at our situation with clarity. [node:read-more:link]

Ghillar Michael Anderson, Convenor of the Sovereign Union and Head of State of Euahlayi Peoples Republic said from Canberra that the second Gathering of Nations held in Canberra this weekend was successful, and despite disruptions by other parties in opposition to the Sovereign Union, the key matters were successfully concluded.
A key issue that arose was the creation of templates to serve as models for Nations around the country, who seek to make their Declarations of Independence. [node:read-more:link]

Ghillar Michael Anderson, Convenor of the Sovereign Union of First Nations and Peoples said from Goodooga today that he has just sent an Open Letter to all UN Ambassadors in New York to highlight Australia's questionable legitimacy on the UN Security Council and to draw attention to Australia's return to the 1920s white colonial Aryan rule. 
Australia is now a country where there are no judicial reviews possible against a form of military rule over its own population and in particular First Nations Peoples. [node:read-more:link]

The outcome of the 'Euahlayi Rates Dispute case' relied on an expanded doctrine of terra nullius to the First Nations people justice. The Supreme Court Judge in Queensland failed to clarify certain arguments, and used the non-justiciability of the sovereignty issue as a link in a chain of argument.

This being so, the decision reveals a gross denial of natural justice, an error of law on the face of the record, and a jurisdictional error. [node:read-more:link]

In the current Euahlayi Peoples Republic Rates Case (QLD), all sides agree that contested sovereignty is not capable of being decided by a court. Therefore the implications confirm that Aboriginal Nations and Peoples have standing and in this respect the Commonwealth and States cannot argue they have sovereignty and dominion over Aboriginal Nations and Peoples.

Ghillar Michael Anderson reminded the Queensland Supreme Court that: "You cannot benefit from murder and that is what happened. Time does not erase murder." [node:read-more:link]
