No one for a moment suspected that this was more than a political witchunt

Don't hold your breath waiting for any Liberal politician to say "Sorry" for anything, 
(there will be nothing from Abbott, Morrison, Abeds, Pyne or Brandis....all children of the Howard) to say:
 They have form; caricaturing the weakest, blaming those not at fault. Thumping the lectern....saying "Little man  that I am, I will not say sorry for anything!!")
I turn my back on this awful government, along with my indigenous sisters and brothers. 
A Government which lacks compassion, cannot admit wrongdoing....and on top of that lacks compassion for those who are least powerful.
