On climbing Uluru

-

Ayers Rock (Uluru) was leased back from traditiona­l owners by Federal Govt, now that part of access to the Rock is to be ceased, the Govt should also in turn renegotiat­e the lease to compensate for this loss of access. Wassa, 4850 Have you been to the rock. Firstly your article by J Tomlinson was well written and spoke volumes for fair play. I’ve climbed the rock and was happy to do so as an Australian. All these bleeding hearts carrying on about respect are missing a vital point, true reconcilia­tion will never start to develop while you put up fences. Mutual respect, one nation, one people, one set of rules for all citizens, the current system will never work. Darryl, Atherton Tablelands When will pollies wake up? We don’t want to be bribed with our own money. We just want less tax, fewer regulation­s and for government­s to stop introducin­g socialism by stealth. Scotty, Gordonvale The perfect pizza in The Sunday Mail. But I like eating pizza, so make your own pizza at home cause it’s cheaper. Janelle, Woree Victory for commonsens­e. The game at Barlow Park on Saturday was a draw. Todd Greenberg take note. Got to feel sorry for Scotland, they were brave. Good luck next time. Scottie, Bayview Heights Susan Williams. The bullies are the ones on Manus Island. Australia takes refugees living in squalor not of their own doing who have no other options. These are queue-jumping illegals, egged on by Get Up and the Greens. They have also generated local PNG community hatred through accusation­s of violence, drugs, theft and underage rape; all convenient­ly ignored by leftist media. Please take your head out of the sand. Joanne, Mount Sheridan Susan Williams: on falling human rights. Susan, by not bowing to the feel-good part of society we are saving lives. These people are proven not to be refugees, they are illegal trespasser­s who destroyed their paperwork for this reason. Since you are so impressed with New Zealand and feel shame about Australia, all I can say is enjoy New Zealand. Paul, A commonsens­e Aussie!
