Australia Commission lobbied against UK's meeting with Indigenous group
July 22, 2025
|The Guardian
Tony Blair's government was privately lobbied by Australia not to meet with representatives of the Indigenous communities who were described as "troublemakers".
Papers released from Britain's National Archives shed light on the private discussions about a delegation that came to the UK in 1999.
It was led by Patrick Dodson, a Yawuru elder who went on to become an Australian Labor Party senator and has been referred to as the "father of reconciliation".
During the same trip, he met Queen Elizabeth II as part of a larger effort to foster reconciliation.
However, files including a memo written by Blair's foreign affairs adviser, John Sawers, reveal the angst within government circles about the trip, and refers to an apparent intervention by the then Australian high commissioner, Philip Flood.
