- Sky News Australia Reporter Matt Cunningham was overcome with emotion on Friday while discussing the crime crisis that has gripped the Northern Territory.
Horrific story…presented so good, so emotional, so powerful, so professional by a real fantastic reporter…
The VOice will not fix this.
It’s not meant to . It’s about passing the buck .
@Ahmed Mohamed you aren't welcome
He’s a good man ❤️❤️🇦🇺
I visited Alice in 2015, from France, and fell in love with the place. I am absolutely devastated to hear what is happening. My heart goes out to you.
Keep fighting. You have a wonderful town.
It was as bad, if not worse in 2015 ..... did you have blinkers on?
@@coolmacatrain9434 I was there for 5 days and can honestly say I didn't see any violence. We walked around the town without any problems. We ate in local restaurants, visited the old prison, chatted to people and saw no violence.
"Keep fighting"....oh wait....
@@wendyreed9682
When were you there for 5 days?
Did you go out in the central business area after midnight?
Yeh ya weren’t in the main part of town, the place is a nightmare & has been for years & those people should all be rounded up & put in prison for 20yrs & see how they like them apples 🍏
Some decades ago a friend, and his wife, had an Aboriginal family move in across the road from them. My friend welcomed the new arrivals, offering neighbourly assistance should it be needed.
One Saturday, a few weeks later, he was in his driveway working on a car, with a beer in hand. When he invited his new neighbour to join him for a beer and a chat, the new arrival told him "thanks, but my race can't handle alcohol"! So my friend offered him a cup of tea, which he gracefully accepted.
I'm 63 very young at heart !! They have never been good with drink , I see it
Good thing he was honest about it. He could’ve found out another way 😢
IDIOTS... Ive never seen a race of people that can handle it.
yeah and
I’ve seen some absolutely disgusting white piss heads in my time, some of em my family and friends. Look how they carry on at the Melbourne cup!? So don’t sit there and put all Aboriginal people in the same basket! You’re an absolute clown if you do! 😏
What a very moving story, he answered the question from the heart and told us we need to hear and act upon, as a nation we can not allow this to continue, this is an human rights issue.
Another crap decision by Albo and his stupid ideas.
It's more the scomo did. Alice Springs has been issue for more then a year
True that
Albos brain is the size of a walnut..
I mean he's the prime minister
But talks like a slow learner..

A reporter with a ♥ heart of GOLD... the youth should be put into the army both young men and young women
The army would not want them... Chuck them in camps
Wouldn't work Agnes. If they were to be subjected to the same level of discipline I was during my years of conscription and active service (69/70), they would just cry 'racist' and the woke media (ABC etc.) would come running, wipe their backsides and just further perpetuate the problem.
Personally, I don't believe there is an answer. We have let this and other matters exceed the point of no return.
It would take something as monumental as an alien invasion to wake the masses and unite us as a people. Here' hoping.
Perhaps given a purpose, the military is an option but not the only one and the military has it's own history with alcohol abuse.
Lies again? Face Of Paramount Pictures
@@NazriB I would suggest that at least that reporter is there doing his best, the issue gets poor coverage elsewhere. I have no doubt you could enlighten us all with your knowledge.
Matt, your bloody legend, buddy. Watch you all the time on Sky, and you do a terrific job reporting on the antisocial turmoil besetting the Northern Territory. Keep safe in these obvious tough times.
We are not allowed to say ABORIGINAL WHAT MORE CAN WE DO?? ABOUT TIME WE SAID NO MORE CHARITY WELFARE!! I AM SICK OF MY TAX MONEY BEING WASTED!!
Jacinta. 👍
Unfortunately they won’t listen to this intelligent woman . It goes against the agenda .
Matt your a real man buddy! 👍
Why in the world hasn’t this happened sooner? Jacinta Price has been calling this out for years😢
Everything she called for, made it worse you dolt. My god Australians are thick as bricks.
She has and most of her own people dismiss her as a 'coconut' so sad.
Because the Indige mob like their : lazy free for all they have ! Everybody owes them something! They don’t want change!
Because it's taboo with the woke left
Not to talk about Aboriginal child
Abuse. People in the child welfare
Department need to go to prison.
If whites did this shit they would
Drop on you like a tonne of bricks.
But because they are so scared of
The stolen generation, they have gone
The other way. They ignore it in
Case they are called racist, it's a
Bloody national disgrace.
Stand up and protect all women
And children. The Labor government
Needs to stop worrying about crap
Like the voice and get something
Done in the communities.
Jacinta is a legend, she has been
Calling out this for ages.
Dutton needs to make her indigenous
Shadow minister now. The fool he
Has there is an unknown.
Stop cowering in the corner, say
NO to voice it is just trying to
Divide Australia. Only second
Rate countries have separate seats
In parliament based on race.
Like that dump South Africa, took
A first world country and turned it
Into a sewer.
heartbreaking, those poor women and children.
YOu never gave a fuck about them before. And now, everything yyou want to do, will make it worse. Well done east coast.
1/2 the Indige mob shouldn’t even be there! They breed what they can’t feed on the baby bonus coin! Get the weeds outta the garden for the place to survive!
How much longer are Indige mob gunna carry on caveman style? Start Comming down from the 🌴🌳! We have only been here 230 years!
What's going to happen to them if the so called voice goes through and the people open to corruption as representatives lie or cover up this crap????
Yes but remember the big picture is not to do with small communities being strong the opposite is required, as all past PM since the first betrayal by our PM TRAITORS 41 years ago, and nothing will change in Alice Springs or Tennent Creek, it’s just not theAlbo and his drongos in the Labor/GANGGREENS job to help Australian People, they must keep to the UN agenda for Global Government, Albo is just the latest United Nations Australian Puppet Prime Minister and drongos; most Aussies have no understanding of the agreements made by our past PMs and opposition leaders of the time; this betrayal began 41 years ago by signing the Lima Agreement to help 3rd world Countries like CHINA, Vietnam, Brazil, India etc. to become 1st world Countries all that was required of our Political Leaders was legislate against our self-sufficient Australian workforce, to help close our manufacturing and farming so that Australia could become a country that relied on importing goods from these 3rd world countries, and as with each agreement made with the UN Bureaucrats since then ( 31 years ago Un agenda 21, 8 years ago UN agenda 2030,) if memory serves me correctly it was Whitlam PM and Fraser Opposition leader who naively or intentionally first set us Australian people on this course to becoming just a vassal country to the UN Bureaucrats, paying annual tribute to our overlords in the United Nations, sounds like TREASON to me? And why about this latest insanity of the UN’s Aussie Labor Party? They are going to borrow $Billions to give to the UN so the UN can distribute the money to countries that have been unfairly affected by the UNs Climate Change catastrophe invention, which obviously only the UN can save us all from; WTF! You can’t make this insanity up!

So the question i could ask all of you.
WHERE IS YOUR KING.
You dont know do you.
AND AT LAW. This has been defined.
You want to fix this.
WE HAVE TO STAND UP.
It is about time Parliament listens to Jacinta Price. She is credible and s real VOICE.
This has been going on for years - it's only because the conservative media has finally given Jacinta a voice, and that is why this is coming out now.
Well she has been saying this for years on SNA so I am not sure what you mean by finally given a voice by conservative media ?
This is nothing go further north to Tenant Creek , I was picked on for just filling my tank, a mob of angry black fellas were walking up the main drag, obviously intoxicated, angry and menacing, police nowhere to be seen! Just another day in Tenant Creek.
Murders rapes incest bashings and drunken terror reigns supreme, you won't see this mamby pampy wishy washy fat heifer child protection services up there , they would be speared the first day, they just chase big pay packets being trouble makers down south in the burbs of Melbourne and Sydney
Bring back the cashless card
Absolutely.
It never went anywhere the basic card is still in place which the majority is still on.
Hell no
It is a good idea in principle, but it also ends up with political and commercial agendas polluting the system. For example the people on these cards in remote communities are forced to buy products from one dedicated store.. even though the store up the road may have a better cheaper products.
@Axle Axle.Australian.Patriot then it should be able to be used anywhere in Australia and the money spent on the aboriginal industry used to provide a Cheaper alternative that provides nutritional food and information on how to prepare it or once a month the airforce delivers food to the isolated communities and no dole plus teaching the people how to prepare food
Search youtube for 'Alice Springs vigilante' - this shit has been happening on for _YEARS_ .... but the woke crowd shouted down anyone who brought it up.
Thanks Matt, thanks for sticking with your hard work. I see every thing every day aswell with my work and social life
Cheers Bloke, i feel you and feel the pain with you, this is so disappointing
5:43 half the reason why I've watched my own community crumble.
Black kids get away with SO MUCH bad behavior because it'd be "racist" to police them.
Been this way for years.
Wow a real reporter. Haven't seen that in a while
I remember the good old days when they were all just sniffing petrol and passing out everywhere. (Sarcasm)
There’s one thing we can bank on - that labour and the greens will make it all so much worse.

Much appreciative mate stay strong
The fact that alcohol restrictions is so important to preserve order indicates one of the essential issues... but one can go deeper bc "why" (and Prohibition never works...), there is a CULTURAL issue here.
Big fan of Sky News,good journalism
Maybe your govt should start putting more money into policing these areas
Big fan of the lucky country too👍
Maybe
But not until the breweries who supply grog are exposed
They are allowed to open up huge bottle shops in areas where grog is a problem and the govt endorse this by licensing snd they make a lot of money in joint out of misery
If it was a supplier of drugs the police would arrest them
Look no further than the corporate grog suppliers and govt
@@robbo4434 tell that to the people that make the policies
The only racists in this problem are the virtue posturing “do-gooders” (both of Aboriginal and European decent) who strive so hard to be seen to be caring, but do nothing meaningful to actually address the situation and make the lives of the suffering population better. Time for government action to help these people and NOT for politically motivated media photo opportunities. Listen to the knowledgable Elders and the likes of Jacinta Price - not some so-called expert Academic or Public Servant giving their opinions in between sipping their Cafe Latte’s and eating Kale and Mung Bean fritters in some central city yuppie cafe - having never spent more than a tiny amount of time in the Outback (if ever). Funny how it’s only ever the likes of Sky News that expose what is happening in the REAL world - the MSM just are not interested (one can only speculate why) - well done Sky News.
🐨🦘 there have been mothers murder their kids. brutal beatings . Todd River flows and bodies found. all this is not new ..not always grog. Keith Australia 🇦🇺
All it takes to destroy a community is bad government aka Labor
This shows so much truth , spine and understanding.😢 Damn the grog to hell .Strength to the family’s.
I dont think you fully understand the problem , in WA there is a women ( white ) that EVERY month use to take a truck load of Alcohol from Perth to the top end of WA , selling a case of beer for up to $100.00, a bottle of scotch , $150.00. her response when a story was done on her ,, If I dont do it , there will be others that do , plus , Im not breaking any laws , she use to have her truck stop OUTSIDE of a dry community , claiming , shes not forcing them to buy anything , she had no morals , and the Politicians in this country , have even less .
@@perrybassett9930 Appreciate your comment .What don’t I understand .. Criminals sell grog , drugs all the time. So . The fact is 75% of the family violence and abuse is caused by grog , brought from the local IGA. . Dry camps should be policed to the letter of the law and provide a safer environment . Laws must be policed without being called out as racist , which unfortunately you couldn’t do in your comment,,White woman ,, . She’s just a criminal,if you know this why haven’t you called the bitch out to the law. The abuse has to stop and the victim mentality of the city based ,educated dills in the cities need to protest the violence and abuse in the communities instead of worrying about Aust day.
So sad. Some real change is needed in Alice Springs. Although, typically most politicians come from big cities where they fail to see what is going on in rural areas. I think personally the solution is more jobs. Even amongst European culture, the easiest way to keep people out of strife, is creating jobs and keeping busy. It's all about keeping yourself busy. If your not busy, you get up to no good.
Trust me the kids have every tool needed to succeed at their disposal there in AS! They either rebel against everything or vandalise / trash / every Oasis there is into a desert!
Build them a skate park and have them bust bottles , chick stones on it. Hassle users and beg, tantrums, rocks and sticks are next on the flow chart! You can’t polish tûrds!
Thank you and God bless you both.
every society has the same problem.
99% of people don’t shoot the messenger.
1% will……
The drivers are very primal.
The offender will always target the weaker person.
This problem is as old as society itself…..
You have children because you love them,not as a source of money,stop paying them
It's alcohol and drugs that is destroying our indigenous people, Australians, First Australians, we need to help them, help themselves
Alcohol and drugs will always be available. The problem is much deeper. It's a mindset of blame. Any alcoholic who has recovered will tell you that.
Time for the indigenous to apologise to Australia for their terrorism
And your point? Terrorism 😂. Who do you think bought alcohol here. Who do you think caused all this in the first place? That’s a horrible and uneducated ignorant thing to say.
Matt I hope you get your wish and we find a long term fix.
Definitely time to ban alcohol to dysfunctional communities in Alice Springs (& other communities). You cannot begin to tackle these problems on a 'Wet Brain'!!!
No, they will just belt the other 98% of the community around the ears with even further restrictions and boondoggles, then, as usual, stand on top of their dung heap, stick out their chest, and crow about how they are doing something about it all.
Just like with Balanda it's not all Aboriginal people that are responsible for the drunken, antisocial, public disorder, and criminal activity problems going on, it is still only a much smaller socially wayward section of their community.
The Government and cops know exactly who all the hard-core, 'usual suspects', of that small section are, but they will not do anything about actually focusing on those, they would rather take a big scatter gun to everybody and everything else.
....and exactly the same thing is going on in Darwin, Palmerston, and suburbs (and let's not forget Katherine, and Tennant Creek), but this seems to be 'Pick On Alice Springs' Month for some reason, ....as if what is going on in Alice is somehow unique, and not happening anywhere else in the Northern Territory (or in the rest of the Country for that matter).
Agreed alcohol is evil
Thank you for caring Matt.
Canada here. Very sorry to hear about the troubles in Alice Springs. Devastating. May you somehow find better days ahead.
Hi Canada.
Not just in Alice Springs, the whole Australia is like this, full of racist rednecks
@@higherpurpose1212 nah it's not mate. Why you lying?
@@falconmclenny7284 Lying? Racism in Australia is very real and you Australians think so highly of yourselves, and that's a FACT. I understand you're in denial stage, but take a look around you, Australians look down on Asians and other cultures like rubbish, when in fact your economy wouldn't survive without these immigrants! You don't have to look far, just check your backyard how you treat your aboriginals and their welfare treatment is way below the acceptable levels.

Mr Cunningham is an excellent reporter and a credit to his profession
God bless you Matt. You have a great mind and a great heart.
Thanks Matty
I lived and worked in Alice Springs for 3 years and fell inlove with the territory. I left about 7 years ago with my husband. We always talk about moving back. So sorry to hear what’s happening there now.
Where are these parents??? They give birth to these children! Then they don't give a shite about them! They expect every one else must look after them! Government must put their foot down!
Drunk, beating their wives, or rizzaping their kids.
Or all 3 in one day.
I remember when in the 1980s when we tried to get alcohol banned in Western Australia. But it was futile. Money is more important than people.
Don't give up your fight to get it banned.
It has been a big factor in most court cases for 40 years as far as I know.
The Woke folks say banning alcohol in Aboriginal communities
"would be taking away their civil rights"
Why do Australians let the vocal minority rule them, and ruin Aboriginal folks lives?
Answer: because there are so few folks like Jacinta and Paulene Hanson speaking up for the Aboriginal folks that live a long way from Sydney.
Our hopeless Prime Minister and his woke buddies are trying to brainwash Aussies into voting yes for "the Voice".
It will just be just another Government dept. and do nothing for ANY Australians.
What a brilliant report about a tragic story by Matt. Emotional & pleading for help. It won't solve everything but a permanent ban on alcohol is a start. And the parents of the kids have to take some of the blame. It's a shame the current Govt doesn't feel the same way. But the current inner city woke warriors only want to change the date of Aust Day.
This reporter has been reporting on this for years as well About the rapes of children and returned to the families who did this Nobody took any notice of him This reporter has pleaded over the years for something to be done So much for Aboriginals improvement in 200 years ,hasn't changed They talk about the " stolen generation" It was why children were taken into care years ago because of what you are seeing now like it was back them. Trying to protest the Aboriginals and they blame the white man who have tried over the years to improve their lives No appreciation for the white folk trying to do good in the world 🌎 Aboriginals have to take responsibility for their own actions in the 21 century as The tax payers IMO have done enough trying to solve their problems and it clearly hasn't worked

They were always fighting and killing each other 🤷🏻♂️
I travelled in Australia in the 80s and saw violence and alcoholism even then. We cannot ignore that the indigenous people were taken away from their culture and their sense of purpose eradicated. Of course the iron fist rule during lockdown doubled the statistics of violence. What did you expect?
Good guy. As a people we feel helpless.
Sorry for this family’s loss.
These must be the most unfortunate people in Australia.
I am not sure "unfortunate" is an accurate diagnosis...
@Michael Schmidt Seems to be a terrible prison of race and class. And a downward spiral into oblivion.
@@Imbrokeaswell It's not about race and class at all, you are ignorant.

Not so many reporters on the world with big heart like that men.
The community had already begged them to continue with the bans, they were ignored and the ban was removed, now this happens; theres your Aboriginal Voice, and it was IGNORED.
A lot of “white people” care about this problem. Fellow Australians are suffering because of this violence black, white and their shades of their offspring. We need to put in place measures to protect these people until we control of this scourge. These people need direction weather by force or not to protect the up coming generations. Maybe the present one are “lost” but we need to prevent this happening into the future.

It's definitely an adult aboriginal problem. Not able to handle alcohol, and if drugs are involved, it's worse. Once under moderate to heavy nfluence, both men and/or women become uncontrollable. Can't look after or control their kids, who are running around stealing cars, and r breaking into innocent people's homes and businesses, using violence and weapons to do so. It's a generational down spiral. Not sure alcohol or drug education would help with most of these people, as their understanding of the effects is limited, and they like how it makes them feel, at first, and then it's too late once they consume copious amounts. The only solution is to keep the alcohol ban in place for aboriginal people. It's not racist, it's looking directly at reality, for their own good and that of their families.
Yeh their kids were removed from their families ‘for their own protection’ all those years ago by people that thought they knew better. See how that turned out.
@@MultiShmed They left a two year old boy with his family back in 2018 who was at risk from this sort of violence further north in the NT. They were scared it would be 'stolen generation' all over again. That two year old child was raped. How did that work out for him?
@@MultiShmed You're right of course, but that is a separate issue, and is not going to help the current horrific situation in Alice, which could destroy the town completely, and then what have they got, and where will they go from there? To the next town? to destroy that? and so on, all for alcohol. And don't think that can't happen.
@@MultiShmed actually for the better judging by this
I’m aboriginal and I agree something has to be done
Just let them have the town , everyone else pay to move ,
I stayed in the NT and the Kimberley region of WA a few years ago. All I ask of the inner city Greens and "do-gooders" is spend at least one week in the heart of those places, especially on the days - and nights - the government dole money arrives
Very sad. But, it's hard to help people you don't want help.
Great truthful reporting these are the facts the government has to get off their lazy backsides and do something and do it now, they or the majority of them are too scared to say anything as they are called racists if they do, just do it and do it now that is what is needed not this woke voice which is if you can understand it is talk talk and more talk.

You know the only reason I comment on this is to honour my brother because he would do the same for me and apart from that I find it all sickening and not worthy of my time. ALL sickening there is no party who is innocent NONE. my brother found it all just as sickening I am sure. Manners come Manners. Alcohol is a no go zone up that way. But to see the men hit woman in the main street is profoundly disturbing to kill is worse but that is the ONLY thing that's worse(in fact I don't believe to kill is worse) woman just were never designed emotionly to endure a slap or a hit from a man it is the cruellest thing imaginable I say emotionally because it is just as horrible physically for another man to be on the receiving end but us woman were never ever designed to be able to navigate a way through a slap or a hit from a man emotionally.
If I had children in Alice Springs I would move them out. There is nothing for them to do in Alice Springs and the boredom is driving them to drink, fight and smash up the place.
I am not familiar with the story. Could anyone tell me the story that happened?

I remember being taught about prohibition when I was 13 years old. Senior Australian MPs must not of of been taught of the outcomes of such policies. Also Australia already has the title of number 1 COVID tyrant do we really need to control whether people have a beer?
Emotion carries no weight in the Government it's Political policies at the hands of bureaucrats who keep on getting it wrong. Alice Springs communities are only the core of what's happening everywhere in the rural areas of Australia for eons. Even Jacinta Price cannot get a wise word recognised to alleviate the forever problems and she's on the inside!
It’s not just due to alcohol and drugs. ITS WHAT THE CHILDREN ARE TAUGHT. THEY ARE TAUGHT WOMEN ARE TO BE DISRESPECTED. CHANGE THE MALE SHOVANISTIC MENTALITY IN THE CULTURE AND END THE VIOLENCE!
Hang on, not to take attention away from alcohol, but aren't we forgetting crystal meth? Australia has the highest per capita rate of crystal meth usage in the world. If you've ever had the misfortune to run into a meth head they can be explosively violent in ways much stronger than what we've traditionally seen with alcohol.

@@grannyannie2948 I think so.
@@johnhoylesunvaccinatedbrother. I've often pondered this. I grew up on coastal semi rural Queensland. I went to school, even a private secondary school, with many Aboriginal children. They had assimilated into white culture a century before without trauma. We all had similar old photos of great grandmother's in Victorian clothes. Their fathers worked. We lived in similar houses. We wore the same clothes. We went to the same churches etc. They could have a few beers at a BBQ, without becoming violent, or neglecting kids. I've often wondered if this is because they had always had an excellent diet of seafood, which had allowed the tribe to be more Mesolithic than the paleolithic people of the interior. Their ancestors saw many positives in western culture, from which they wanted to be a part of.
For the nearest place to Pine Gap it's rather surprising to hear it's got a high crime rate!
Drug is biggest threat for Australia . That's issue most important than terrorism. Government doesn't see the drug problem. only focused tobacco and vaping products. Aboriginal community using drugs and alcohol. I'm afraid that's problem will be spread all Australia cities because people using too much drug. Drug is cheaper than one pack of cigarette! Universities and media still talking about legalise cannabis. We have big under threat. Aussie people getting junkie. If you have junkies in your street your family and your property not safe!
What happened in Alice Springs? I'm now overseas I haven't been keeping track
Very sad.
Time to use military with force
I think perhaps a Boot camp for children that go off the rails. Up early, some exercise, healthy food & some education & training as in apprenticeship; give these kids some hope for their future. With aboriginal people on site, being involved in this process. If something is not done, they will wipe themselves out, & that would be really tragic for these people.
No that would be considered stealing another generation
Ban Alcohol, hand out free weed, problem solved.
All liquor shops should be closedown that will stop any divisive behaviour when they won’t be able to get drunk, breaking and wreck things and raping women & children this is disgusting behaviour😞

Gross mate.
Everyone says the aboriginal incarceration going up. Since when is DV so accepted in any culture ?. So the man that conducts the violence ends up in jail. Then the same people that man comes from complain about the incarceration rate ?. When will the native people of Australia accept that there is an internal problem and that they need to recognise this and fix it instead of blaming everyone else ?

Thank you for your report, I use to live in Alice many years ago it is a people place and wonderful people my daughter still lives there. Our Indigenous Mobs there need help. Awesome report
Who is deleted the majority of the replies on this thread? more importantly why. Come on Sky News. Don't you tell us to listen to points of view from all sides?
I was lucky enough to work on groote island. They had a full ban on that island from aboriginals drinking or buying alcohol. If you gave or sold any to them you'd be off to jail. The violence among the aboriginal community was shocking and that was 20yrs ago
What is it like now? Did stopping alcohol help? I hope so.
Jeez… I’ll take Alice Springs off my tour next year then.
So this is about addicts?
Tough shit, deal with it, that’s life.
This shows the policies of the Territory government are failing hand over fist.....
Just ban grog, and return to the good old days of proboition.
