Governments must give to all those who have hit life's hurdles the chance to rebuild and have a future.

We must look after our own before lining the pockets of overseas countries and investors.

Present governments are encouraging separatism in Australia by providing opportunities, land, moneys and facilities available only to Aboriginals.

The majority of Aboriginals do not want handouts because they realise that welfare is killing them.

I do not believe that the colour of one's skin determines whether you are disadvantaged.

My view on issues is based on common sense, and my experience as a mother of four children, as a sole parent, and as a businesswoman running a fish and chip shop.

We are regarded as a Third World country with First World living conditions.
