"First Nations woman suffered shocking neglect for years, disability royal commission told" [abc.net.au] and the best that WA's Public Advocate Pauline Bagdonvicius can say about it is that it is "regrettable"? That merely underscores the deplorable racism displayed by those in power in Australia.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.The ABC may squeal & shout but it is evident from responses such as this by Bagdonvicius that even if the Disability Royal Commission has the audacity to criticise Australian legislation & behaviour then sweet Fanny Adams will occur to change the situation.
The Federal Court 30 years ago claimed that it could not uphold international human rights conventions agreed to & signed by Australia. The annual Federal Parliament enquiry & Attorney General were advised shortly after. Again sweet Fanny Adams was done to drag Australian law into line with what it has internationally agreed to do.
In the mid 1990's legislation proposed by UN Secretary General aspirant, Kernot shagger & adulterer Gareth Gareth Evans (ALP), & following representation by the fish tight wearing Alexander Downer (Liberal) proposed that Australia ignore human rights conventions not enacted into Australian legislation.
At Federal Senate committee hearing into this legislation proposed by Gareth Evans I was the only person in writing to call out the Federal Government's hypocrisy. I was at the hearing however verbally well supported by Australia's former judge, Elizabeth Evatt AC. elected to the United Nations Human Rights Committee in 1992 & serving as a member from 1993 to 2000, who also called out their hypocrisy. A fact that probably made it difficult for them to charge & gaol me for contempt of the parliament.
