Since when did we give indigenous people the power of veto over any and all development projects? This needs to be stopped for once and for all. Governments have a duty to consult and hear their opinions, nothing more.
If various groups or individuals decide to blockade roads or railways because they don't get their way then it becomes a law enforcement matter......and various police forces need to actually enforce the law and make mass arrests......not wring their hands and worry about "escalating" the situation like they did over the rail blockades. Rule of law is fundamental to a functioning society and allowing people to ignore laws or defy court orders without serious consequences is a dangerous precedent.
