If the Voice is about health, education, employment as Burney claims. Then they are closing schools in remote areas.

It is not about education in remote communities.

Shadowminister,

Your last post shows what a complete blithering idiot you are. There is no veto power you fool. The fact you can't comprehend it is frightening.

Josephus,

There is little doubt you are one of the unchristian person I know. To take a genuine heart felt message from the statement about indigenous kids and rewrite it to sully it with fear mongering crap is utterly pathetic.

Nick off.

According to the federal government register, there are currently 320 lobbying organisations and 676 lobbyists operating in Australia for a total of 2,243 clients. Officially, 39.6% of those lobbyists are former government “representatives”, but according to an independent study carried out by Guardian Australia, 52.8%, have a previous history within government or political party hierarchies.

As I understand it, the "First Nations Voice" is, for all intents and purposes, just another lobby and I don’t see why the First Nation Peoples should not be able to plead their case and defend their interests like any of the other 2,243 clients.

Failure to acknowledge their existence in the constitution as the sole occupants of the country for over 65,000 years is the non-recognition of an indisputable historical fact and a monumental injustice that should have been rectified a long time ago.

History is calling
So we are told
By our current government
That's prepared to be bold

They're prepared to admit
The wrongs of the past
To ensure that those wrongs
Don't continue to last

A new start is something
They now want to be made
So our Indigenous folk
Don't continue to fade

They're having a vote
For a voice to be heard
Directly by government
One that doesn't get blurred

We need to give
our First People a chance
To advise the government
How they can advance

It's up to us all
To do what's right
And ensure that we fix
Our historical blight

Let's not continue
To make them plead
And allow their communities
To thrive and not bleed.

Banjo Paterson, aboriginal activists already have many lobby groups within Government such as the NIAA who received $4.5 billion in 2022. The Voice is more than a lobby group, it is a power structure within our constitution to give power for self-determination of aboriginal tribes over the lands, waterways, resources, and beaches they had stolen from them by the British.

They believe it will take twenty plus years after the Voice to fully regain control of all that was stolen. That the British stole the land by murdering tribes, is being taught in schools and universities so the well-meaning young can easily accept it must be given back. This is part of truth telling and it is already being told in schools.

The Voice is the first step put in place by the Federal Government, then it is up to the States and Councils to put in place Treaties with local tribes upon which the state occupies. History has already been written by people like Bruce Pascoe and is being taught in schools and universities. The ABC and SBS and NITV are the major indoctrination of the program for full aboriginal control, and we are being wooed to go along with the program by voting YES.

IT IS TRUE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ONLY INVOLVES THE VOICE.
That just begins the program set out by the full Uluru statement.
