Activists don't want the 'gap' real or imagined closed because they would lose money and prestige. All those 70 odd organisations would disappear. If the Voice referendum ever gets up, I will vote NO, and others can do as they please. Nothing more to say.

mhaze,

People like me?

You have no idea.

ttbn,

You probably voted against same-sex marriage as well.

Still it got through.

ArmchairCritic,

Small world, I used to hunt regularly in the Valley, before it was destroyed.
Used to go mainly to Neville Lang’s property out past Yerrandery.
Used to hunt with a couple of the Rileys, Tom and Syl, (probably Sylvester but nobody called him that), also with Dudley Goodfellow from the other side of the river, he was a cousin of theirs.
This was way back in the 1950s.

I'm interested that the OP is interested enough to comment on the voice but not interested enough to read what it is.....

It's a very exciting day in Canberra today.

The opening of Parliament will be filled with
all sorts of pomp and ceremony. Hopefully, we
shall see our new government being able to
negotiate what it promised. Or at least
make a start. And it will go
down in history for having done so. It will
be up to the Opposition - as to how it wants to
be remembered in future years. As builders, or
wreckers.

Fingers-crossed they'll choose the first option.

Exciting times ahead.

Foxy,
If you can get excited about the National Parliament, don’t take up Tidily Winks, the excitement might be too much for you.
