Sorry about that

I tuned in to Channel 10's main news bulletin tonight expecting today's historic opening of Parliament to be the main item and was disappointed to see it only ranked third in the network's opinion.

When they finally did cover the opening it was heartwarming to see bits of the Aboriginal welcoming ceremony and hear excerpts from speeches by Kevin Rudd and Brendan Nelson.

I'm hoping this new spirit continues and builds.

The long discussed 'sorry' statement is on the agenda for Parliament tomorrow and according to 10's report the Opposition has decided to endorse the motion. It will be good if the motion is passed unanimously.
