AC
I have mentioned this twice elsewhere. It appears to be true, along with our wimpy cricketers, who were offered counselling, just in case, even before the lights went out on the Voice. What a bloody weird country we live in! Good to see that Paul is managing to keep a stiff upper lip. Posted by ttbn, Saturday, 21 October 2023 6:08:39 AM

The rejection of the Voice was also a rejection of the Yes supporters themselves: those people who " pride themselves on having the judgement and wisdom to diagnose social ills and prescribe solutions" (Nick Cater).
The choking, swearing, and abuse of No voters and 'racist' Australia was appalling. The referendum result was a rude shock to the holier-than-thou Left. The more polite ones were "perplexed and devastated", as one 'celebrity' tweeted. The aboriginal industry must now be worried that their hugely expensive quangos and fabulously paid jobs will now come under more scrutiny. Posted by ttbn, Saturday, 21 October 2023 7:06:58 AM

I have always believed the "Voice" was supported by Palestinian Islamists, and we have evidence of this at Pine Gap this morning where one hundred Islamic extremists met outside the facility to protest the war against Palestine. A facility they believe is on stolen land. Australia is being drawn into the conflict by people who cannot live peacefully with their neighbors.

"people who cannot live peacefully with their neighbors."
That's very euphemistic Josephus. It is a hateful antisemitic movement that has always been about refusing a two state solution and only offers Israelis a choice of leave or be killed. I amazed that a racist anti-immigration terrorist organisation is not being condemned by the Greens and factions of Labor. On a brighter note, now that the week of mourning is nearly over, do you think that Marcia might announce the end of welcome to country/acknowledgement of country as punishment for the wicked no vote?

Hi ttbn,
"The referendum result was a rude shock to the holier-than-thou Left. The more polite ones were "perplexed and devastated", as one 'celebrity' tweeted. The aboriginal industry must now be worried that their hugely expensive quangos and fabulously paid jobs will now come under more scrutiny." Hmmm.. I just remembered this from 2016 Woman screams as Donald Trump is sworn in as President http://youtu.be/wDYNVH0U3cs - thought to myself 'Yeah really, why should I be surprised'... Lol Also not surprising you found and shared this story much earlier, I must've missed your comments. Apparently it's was all over the radio yesterday, good job ttbn.

We are a "sensitive" lot, are we not? I voted 'YES', but I don't feel there is anything to recover from. Then again "melons" working down at the bank might need to "recover" considering all those nasty things that ails them, like bad customer service!
