Greenland PM is pro independence and this may be under the future will of the people, so may be seen like e.g. the north of Ireland. But this doesn’t remove the violence of all colonisations (e.g. what we’re seeing live in Palestine now) and no colonial power holds the right to posses their nation!

Standard disclaimer of "electoral politics aren't going to save us" etc. But if the vote share is as distributed as widely as this under first-past-the-post – a system designed to accommodate only two major parties – it's going to be absolute chaos after the actual election ⚰️

The same concerns apply in relation to victims of other crimes, but also for migrants in dealing with other state agencies, including labour inspection. That's why it is so crucial that, with the introduction of the Fair Work Agency, a firewall is introduced between it and immigration enforcement.
