Gentlemen,

Prof. Megan Davis has asked us to "read deeply."
That nothing is hidden and is on the Referendum
Council website and has been for seven years.
The public has been encouraged to access the
information.

Anyhow, we all shall decide at the ballot box how
we're going to vote on this issue. The Australian
voters usually get it right in the end.

I'm sure that they will do so this time as well.

Enjoy your Sunday. This has been an interesting
discussion and as always, I look forward to our
next one.

Enjoy your Sunday.

Cheers.

Just remember people, it was 200+ years of poor government policy that got us where we are.
If there is a problem today, successive governments created it.

Now after 200+ years of failures and incompetence they claim to have a solution.

They make an awful lot of claims, the government.
Most of it is bloviating and isn't worth the time of day.

Former politician Julie Bishop has said that she has
sat through too many "Closing the Gap," speeches in
Parliament, and in some instances the key measures were
getting worse not better.

So it's not a question of
money, it's not a question of politicians coming up with
policies. The Government knows best.
It is a question of giving Indigenous people
the franchaise to make decisions to implement policies
that will work. We've got to give it a chance, according to
her.

She added:

" I believe a YES vote is a step in the right direction.
No one's claiming that it's going to end inequality and
disparity, but surely, we have to try something that comes
from the Indigenous people themselves,"

____________________________________________________________________

Indyvidual,

Try acting like a normal, happy, and mentally stable person
today.

I wish you luck.

According to Julie Bishop the "Government knows best,"
attitude regarding the Indigenous people has to change
to something that comes from the Indigenous people
themselves.

She says we've got to give it a chance.

Our Prime Minister still believes that the YES campaign
can get up.

"Constitutional change is hard in this country. Only 8
propositions have been successful out of 48 but I'm
confident that Australians will take this opportunity to
vote YES," Mr Albanese told nine's 60 Minutes.

He denied that he had staked his legitimacy as Prime
Minister or the credibility of the Labor Government upon
the outcome of the referendum.

"It's NOT about me and it's NOT about any politician," Mr
Albanese said.

"It's not my product. It's a product that came from
Indigenous Australians and it's one I support."

"My plan is to be successful at this referendum and I'm
determined to stand up for my values and keep my election
promise and I have faith in the Australian people."

Fingers-crossed he's right.
