Paul145,
As you're one those pushing for the VOICE it's enlightening & sobering for people to see what kind of Prejudice they'd be voting in with the YES vote !

"We stand as one under this flag as Australians – whether we are from the first peoples of this country, whether we’re from those who came on the first fleet, and the settlers and the migrants that come to this country … We are one Australia.” (Jacinta Price, an aboriginal voice Albanese and his Leftist gang definitely do not want to listen to. They want to wreck one Australia).

What is it that makes some people believe that the wrongs of a now long-gone Past can somehow be rectified by justifying more wrong ?
Many past wrongs were due to ignorance, prejudice, plain greed, stupidity & in a lot of cases due to having drawn the shorter straw in life. Many of those perpetually bleating about the Past wrongs are now trying to rally sympathy by doing exactly the same with the same mindset.
I couldn't blame a victim for thinking that way but there are no more victims & the new perpetrators are the ones claiming rather opportunistically to be victims !

Jose,

What was the name of the constitutional lawyer, you were listening to last night, or is that another one of your anti Voice, anti Aboriginal fallacies you like to promote.

Indy,

No one is trying to rectify wrongs of the past, by perpetrating acts of murder and genocide today, because that is what took place in the past. Like the bloke above, name those people who "believe that the wrongs of a now long-gone Past can somehow be rectified by justifying more wrong" People like you are in denial, and don't want to recognise the past history of the injustices perpetrated against Aboriginal people. For you it should be swept under the carpet, not mentioned and not recognised as it was for 200 years. You only accept some perverted sanitised version of history when it comes to European colonialism and how it impacted Aboriginal people.

Jut as it's right to call out "Holocaust Deniers", it's equally right to call out "Aboriginal Murder and Genocide Deniers".

Warren Mundine says that Voice advocates are either ignorant of aboriginal culture, or they are deliberately ignoring it,

"No Aboriginal person can speak for another country, only their own"

The Voice won’t, and can’t, represent Indigenous people as a group. The idea is "absurd".

The Langton-Calma model is designed to vest the power of the Voice in a small group of mostly metropolitan activists. A decision-making process that actually respected Aboriginal culture would be simply unworkable.

"Everywhere you look, major difficulties loom".

Paul1405 is the kind of character the VOICE would be made up of ! Vindictive, opportunistic & plain inconsiderate towards those who toil for the benefit of all !
