No' to 'Welcome to country'
'No' to changing the names of our cities
'No' to Aboriginal names for our cities at airport terminals
'No' to plaques on government buildings and churches declaring the land belongs to indigenous people
'No' to declaring all people with Aboriginal blood are 'special needs' people deserving higher benefits to anybody else with social needs.
'No' to corporates and entertainers getting involved in politics
'No' to dividing the country
'No' to racism and enshrining

And so say the majority of Australians, and very likely some of the minority who mistakenly voted for the Voice.

I will vote 'NO' again to prevent this country from being denigrated by division, racism and inequality.

The Unions, Academics, Bureaucrats, many Public servants & other elites in non-revenue producing positions will never allow inequality to be removed !
