The YES vote has now dropped another 1% to 38%; and Jacinta Price is not warming to Dutton’s wacky 'recognition' nonsense. Maybe the pendulum really is turning, but no money on it yet.

That's the difference. If a party leader acts like a nong the other members can indicate as much and put an end to it. With a cult leader everyone has to go along with it lest they be seen as disloyal. Truth is a better master than loyalty.

When was the "White Australia" policy disbanded?
Foxy,
I don't know when that happened, most likely before I arrived. It wasn't until years later that it was mentioned more & more by those doing less & less. Anyhow, it was after the Caucasians built all the infrastructure needed for new migrants not to have to live in sheds like their predecessors & work in manner foreign to the intellectual elites of every complexion.
You say Pearson's speech was moving, was that when he explained what happened to the many millions of $'s provided for his clever school project ?

Indy said;

before I (Indy) arrived..... after the Caucasians built all the infrastructure needed for new migrants (like me) not to have to live in sheds." Yep gotta agree, when the freeload arrived we put him into a free house, so he didn't have to live in a mud hut, like the joint he came from, which he's always very careful not to name.

I will be delighted when Labor's racist voice to parliament is consigned to the trash heap of history.

Just heard a Yes proponent woman on ABC Radio how she'd like future generations not to have to grapple with this issue.
If she really means that then why does she advocate to vote Yes ?
