  • Behrendt is the Paris Hilton of Aboriginal affairs. Langton is someone who walks her talk 100%

  • Women like Marcia and Pauline Hanson who seem to be angry, resentful and hateful shouldn't really be taken seriously on any issue. The problem is not the issues they are speaking about...the problem is something in their pasts that have turned them into such bitter individuals. "I think you need to understand..." she says to Barb Shaw. Ms Shaw lives in a town camp under the realities of the Federal Intervention, whereas Langton does not.

  • Marcia is a agressive and arrogant. shame on her worry about her own people. She has no juristiction in someone elses country. GET OUT MARCIA! MARCIA you are misinformed! ever thought about that, miss upyourself.

    Marcia you have High Heels, cause the Government are giving you lots of money to buy them. must be nice.

  • I can understand her viewpoint as more aggressive and less submissive because she's been fed up with the government bullshit from people that refuse to even acknowledge important issues. When you deal with bullshit and hate from ignorant people for a long time, you're bound not be sweet and patient with them anymore.

  • Marcia differentiate between the flawed implementation of the intervention and the need for a strong government response to the levels of impoverishment, substance abuse and violence in many NT Aboriginal communities. Like any good leader she has had to make some hard decisions and if I had to weigh her views against some of the ignorant whitefellas (like the lad on the camera) protesting against the Intervention in Sydney or Melbourne I'd take Marcia's line everytime. A brave woman; go sister!

  • You're absolutely right.

  • Is this really the person the Australian Government regards as one of its most important indigenous advisors? If so, it is no wonder that the intervention is so strongly opposed by the majority of indigenous people. Shame on you Marcia.

  • Typical cantankerous, belligerent, arrogant and conceited bluster from the head of the new 'Native Police'!
