"Aboriginal aka Indigenous aka First Peoples aka First Nations" Voices to Parliament come and go, unremembered and unlamented.

Here is a list of the forgotten:

In the beginning, Whitlam’s National Aboriginal Consultative Committee (1973-77)

Only to be replaced by the National Aboriginal Conference (1977-85)

Which was scrapped to make way for the infamous Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC) (1989-2005)

Which ran simultaneously with The Council for Aboriginal Reconciliation (1991-2000)

But both were scrapped and replaced by the National Indigenous Council (2005-2007)

Which itself was scrapped and replaced by the National Congress of Australia’s First Peoples (2009-2019)

Which ran simultaneously with the rapidly forgotten Prime Minister’s Indigenous Advisory Council (2013-2019)

All these bodies were Voices of the Past. Albanese's Uluru Voice proposal is just the most recent in a long line of failures.

This is all about Albo's Racist proposal to favour, just one "First Nations" RACE via the Constitution.

Non-First Nations people should vote against Albanese's Racist proposal. Australia is for the equality of all races. It is called Democracy.

Aunty Lidia is blazing away, doing her best to sink the Voice too. We should back her Voice-Wrecking talents, as her Treaty idea also won't get up.

Dear Maverick,

Mate, you have just given the most eloquent argument for the Voice to be enshrined in the Constitution.

I'm going to definitely use it when advocating for a Yes vote in the referendum.

Thank you.

If the Voice got into the Constitution, there would be no 'scrapping' of it. You don't have on your list the $30 billion still being wasted, and the 13 hundred or so quangos not 'scrapped'.

We all know where Lidia should 'go', along with her Treaty nonsense.

Look at New Zealand's Treaty of Waitangi:

Part Maori activist, Casey Costello, says that that Treaty is a "... self-appointed, elitist minority advocating that they speak for all Maori, and the outcomes (promised) are not being achieved. In fact, some areas have gotten (sic) worse outcomes".

Failures to deliver are, of course, blamed on 'racism' and 'colonisation'.

The Voice - plus the inevitable Treaty - would be no different here.

Thorpe speak for a narrow group on the edge of the
debate. The campaign for the Voice will expand and voters
are being reminded by Green Party members and the Prime
Minister, and many others that Thorpe speaks for a very
small minority.

Most Australians do support The Voice!

It's Time!

If there's enough opposition and pushback, the referendum won't even go ahead anyway.
- Losing the referendum would jeopardise Albo's political future and set back a similar referendum for years and Albo knows it.
He's only likely to go ahead with it if he thinks there's a solid chance of success.
So likely he's probably going to spend a lot more of other peoples money promoting the cause (and doing deals with other pollies) until he thinks he's in that winning position.

- Democracy my left food.
Everythings rigged in a subtle kind of way.
