Kudos mhaze-

Labor voters have an alternative in the DLP Democratic Labour Party!

Typical conservatives, just got no humour. BTW, the D.L.P these days would be struggling to stand no more than 3 or 4 candidates in the 151 Federal electoral divisions across the country. How is that; "Labor voters have an alternative in the DLP" You guys know nothing, just keep voting for One Nation and Big Clive, your ship will come in one day....well hopefully not!

The DLP were decidedly anti-communist! No ifs buts or maybes. And the labor party of the fifties and sixties are no more!

The case for the voice as extolled by elbow may be a bridge too far for many Australians.

If it gets up by the barest of margins, it will be the most divisive referendum yet put. And hardly a good outcome.

Today we can well and truly put the DLP in the same category as the Protectionist and Free Trader parties of yesteryear, an anachronism of a bygone era.

To say; "Labor voters have an alternative in the DLP Democratic Labour Party!" dream on sunshine, that shows a complete misunderstanding of the Australian political landscape. The DLP today is a micro party whose limited support is centred in Victoria, it would have neither the capacity (members) or the resources to launch a concerted national campaign against the major parties, or the Greens for that matter.

I always think of Albanese and a bullet in the same thought bubble.

I amused!

I suppose I have to say it all again...
We can be reasonably sure that about 250 years ago a foreign population established itself in this country.
Many of us are descended from that group.
None of us know exactly what happened back then.
We weren't there.
But it is reasonably certain that there was fighting between the local inhabitants and the newcomers.
The newcomers prevailed, and became the dominant force in the country.
They became the controllers of the land.
The local inhabitants then had options.
To become part of the new regime, or continue to fight them.
It appears they chose the latter.
Worse, the fight was carried on by later generations.
It became a feud.
Which is where we are today.
They have adapted, and now use a different approach.
They are using the law to establish a 'beachhead' as it were.
Land rights, and goodness knows how much money spent on them.
Now lawful division of their group from the rest of Australia, via the Constitution.
Mumbling about a treaty.
Remember, they are the tail end of a feud, and are far removed from anything in history.
Time for the general populace to wake up to what they are doing?
Time for them to fit in with the rest of Australia.
If they can't, that is a different problem altogether.
And why is the government asleep at the wheel?
Or is it just stumbling around in its own darkness?
Time for somebody to wake up.
Wake up and act responsibly.
