‘I’m here to smash the narrative’ of the left on the Indigenous: Jacinta Price

Alice Springs Deputy Mayor Jacinta Price says she is here to "smash the narrative" of the left that say Indigenous Australians are "constantly victims" and those on the left are their "champions". The remarks come amid Ms Price unseating Senator Sam McMahon as the Country Liberal Party's top Senate candidate in the Northern Territory. Ms Price said the left "always push a particular narrative" and want Aboriginal people to "feel hard done by" so they can "point the finger" at who they think are the perpetrators and "claim to be our champions" when they are not. "Because to tell us that we're victims constantly has been removing our agency and the ability for us to understand that we can stand on our own two feet, we can achieve so much," she said. "The left also relies on an industry which has been heavily funded on the backs of the misery of Indigenous Australians and I'm here to say enough, we've had of it. "The ultimate freedom is responsibility is knowing you have freedom of choice. The left hate that because they want to control the narrative - well I'm here to smash the narrative."
