To the Honourable the Speaker and Members of the House of Representatives assembled in Parliament.
The petition of the undersigned citizens of South Australia respectively showeth that:
We believe the federally funded Aboriginal Legal Rights Movement to be discriminatory and divisive.
We believe the Aboriginal Legal Rights Movement does not stand for truth, justice, or the egalitarian Australian way and, does in fact, discriminate between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal persons by virtue of its name and practice.
We believe there should be only one federally funded Legal Rights Movement for all Australians, regardless of colour, culture or ethnic background.
In conclusion to the above points of concern, we believe that funding to the Aboriginal Legal Rights Movement is a waste of Australian Taxpayer money and Resources.
Your petitioners as in duty bound therefore respectfully request, that this House take the necessary decisive steps to ensure that all funding for this discriminatory movement is abolished immediately.
