Codswallop.

""Australians had collectively failed to show to Aboriginal people the personal generosity and warmth of welcome that we have habitually extended to the stranger in our midst.”

 

He has said AUSTRALIANS collectively failed to show the same degree  of   generosity and warmth of welcome to Aboriginal people that they would to others (strangers) within the country (midst) i.e discrimination.

 

Meaning non indigenous Australians collectively,  not just him.

It wasn't non indigenous Australians collectively who demonstrated their disdain when he arrived late and promptly fell asleep during their attendance.  His pretence of caring is too little too late to be taken as sincere..  If there was any genuine concern he would start with an apology for his appalling behaviour in the past.

Not all Australians collectively have acted the same as him either.
