Are those voting NO only in agreement with those like Lidia Thorpe
Paul1405,
It's the Lydia Thorpe's & Paul1405's who make people see the real picture & therefore vote No !

Indy,

Lidia Thorpe, like you is advocating for a NO vote. I consider Lidia's approach bigoted and racists, in her case against white folk, in your case against black folk. As I've said in the past I don't consider all racists to be haters, but I consider Lidia to be somewhat of a hater.

Most of these "Aboriginal people" are indistinguishable from white Australians, thanks to intermarriage and interbreeding, and generally living the same sorts of lives as the rest of us.

How long will it be before Albanese apes New Zealand and dictates that anyone identifying as aboriginal will have first dibs on surgery, irrespective of the urgency. He is a great admirer of NZ government pro-Maori racism, and equates his abominable Voice with their appalling arrangements.

New Zealand surgeons have been told that they should consider patients' ethnicity when deciding on who should be operated on first!

This extreme racism has been going on since February this year. Priority to Maoris on the grounds they have "historically had unequal access to healthcare".

Maoris and Pacific Islanders are on top of the list for surgery, European New Zealanders, Indians and Chinese are lower down the list.

Under the New Zealand Human Rights Act 1993, there are 13 categories under which people cannot be discriminated against; 3 of these are by "colour", by "race" and "ethnic or national origin". Yet, everybody in New Zealand, except Maoris, is being discriminated against.

That's the 'brave new world' for you, where totalitarian, corporatist politicians - even those who were voted for by less than a third of the voters - feel that they can do as they please, and they will get away with it.

Paul is only looking at Lidia Thorpe, he has not heard of Thomas Mayor who wrote the Uluru statement and a book on the Voice. Paul, go back to the link I posted on Thomas Mayor and his links to communism.

ttbn,

I doubt you would have a clue about the history, culture or the conditions for Maori people in Aotearoa today. As for the commentary of someone who goes under the name of Rukshan Fernando on 'TikTok', I'll take that with a grain of salt. BTW the plural of Maori is Maori, not "Maoris" like in sheep and sheep.

These are the voices of the Uluru Statement, that aboriginals are the sovereign people who own Australia, it lands waters and beaches. Always was and always will be, and they have rights to self-determination, independent of Westminster Governments.
