The first Indigenous Australian Member of Parliament wears a traditional kangaroo skin cloak as he delivers his maiden speech, in which he thanks Kevin Rudd for his apology to the Stolen Generation.

Especially noteworthy because Wyatt is a Liberal, and it's barely six months since Tony Abbott was taking a shot at the welcome to country ceremonies, which acknowledge that events take place on tribal lands. One presumes that, when Wyatt participated in Parliament's ceremony, Abbott didn't suggest he was doing it for money.
