Is it really an apology from Jenny Macklin and her Australian political cronies for the stolen children or is it just a coincidence that there is an election coming up in the not too distant future and they may just be trying to score points. The Oz government has already apologised to the Aboriginal Stolen Generation. Now the British Stolen Generation and the Australian Stolen Generation. Who next? Maybe I could seek an apology from the French Pollies for the maiming and killing that William the Norman/Bastard/Conqueror inflicted on my earlier generations back in 1066! Cynical John in Oz

Cynical John, What would you like? Blood? I hardly think this Government needs brownie points to win the next election which is at least a year away, it will romp home with or without the apology! Please don't bring your politics into a wonderful hobby like family history research and leave the rest of us to enjoy it without your cynicism. 2009/11/21 J.
