Genuinely took a few confused minutes of reading the other comments to realise this isn't about Brexit
If we don't get the Voice through this referendum I doubt it would ever get through at least for a few decades in a second one. It's either enshrine A Voice this time or nothing. Referendums are hard.
more chance for the conservative removedolition to show how gross they are before they become irrelevant
Yeah unfortunately that shit works. Maybe not on you, but it does work. It's kinda like spam. It's intentionally bad so the victims self-select.
Just remember that because of how vague this amendment is, if the yes vote wins as soon as the LN P get in power they can at best completely render ur irrelevant and pointless, and at worst actually use it to make life even worse for indigenous people.
This is the problem a lot of us have with it. It’s protected in name only, and has zero power.
Id love to float a hypothetical here.
Say the referendum fails. One of the big 'No' arguments, if you can call it that, is "wHY nEeD rEFeReNDuMB jUSt LegISLatE"
What if albo just legislates the body in.
Reckon they will be consistent and say 'see thats all you need!", or will heads melt.
Because we know, it has nothing to do with that at all
What if albo just legislates the body in.
It will be repealed next time the LNP get in, just like everything else.
i agree. i would LOVE to hear what the people advocating for legislation only as their argument for a NO vote would say, because I have a little feeling they actually dont want that, they just want NO because they are either misinformed, rascist or voting purely along party lines, which is bizarre for a referendum
