I believe England was planning on that but figured it would be unfair to the aboriginals of Australia. They could have lost some land, and the Britons certainly didn't want to treat their new friends like that. It would be against good European and Christian manners. /S

There’s a reason we don’t celebrate Australia Day it’s the day they came and wiped out the aborigines in the masses

I hope you spend the day self flagellating to show how sorry you are

Nah we spend it ensuring terrible treatment of our indigenous people continues lol, recently we voted against giving them a non binding voice in parliament so they could at least express their wishes.
