Listen, too, to her story of her aunt, who disappeared 40 years ago, running away, after she’d been offered to an aged relative in marriage.

Noel Pearson: where has the $300 million gone that you were given for the 300 aborigines in Cape York? How was the money spent? Why no closing of their gaps? With a million a head?
