Hi Paul

Dutton being so rightwing makes him a poor Opposition leader because, in part, he cannot gather the moderate Libs around him. Also his cold, strange, exterior doesn't invite trust.

Time for someone else, maybe Julie Bishop, to takeover, even if the Libs can't conceive of a woman leading the Party.

Cheers Mavs

Dutton is using the proven but immensely unpopular tactic of "you have to be cruel to be kind'.
Unfortunately, he's right therefore things won't change because the parasitic Woke have become too numerous at the Ballot box !

The NO advocates are fair minded in opposing the Racist Voice Proposal. This is noting it is Australia's most famous Aborigine who opposes the Voice.

"Senator Lidia Thorpe...signalled she will continue to argue against constitutional recognition and the voice “advisory body with no power”, warning that there are “progressive nos” who oppose it “for good reason”."

MAVER'S COMMENT

Looks like Whitey who feels guilty will be the arch Robo-Voter for Voice neo-Racist Dreamtime.

Ockernese has gone from assertiveness on the Voice to pleading with the Opposition to come on board and design a voice model with him, now that polls showing support for a Yes vote is dropping beyond the level needed for a majority of voters in a majority of states.

I listened to PM Albanese say on ABC that just vote YES for the concept of the Voice, and the Parliament will legislate how it will work. So, the Labor, Greens and Teals will decide how the Voice will work and what will be involved as they hold the majority seats. There is already a loud voice in Parliament, especially from Alice Springs given by aboriginals, and it has been ignored.

First Nations

There were no first nations. There were TRIBES. It is a lie to suggest otherwise. People who study history know that " 'families' were small in number and constantly quarrelling". Even 'tribes' is often an exaggeration, because they were just family groups. Large gatherings only occurred for trading or ceremonial purposes.

Welcome to country

A modern contrivance as with 'smoking ceremonies'.

Living in harmony with the environment

Only because of their small numbers they didn't damage the environment.

Truth telling

Nothing to do with truth - just berating white people.

Voice

People need to start thinking of the Voice as a Trojan horse. If it is allowed in by gullible and unsuspecting voters, all manner of nasties will pour out of it.
