"Last week, [the AEC] was tagged in a photo of an absurd No campaign brochure which suggested the Voice would lead to financial restitution: "Genuine question @AusElectoralCom, are campaigns just allowed to lie on their material? Reparations?? Seriously!?"

But Ekin-Smyth's team could not really respond: "Our job is the process not the topic."

So, whose job is it?"

On Brexit:
"The parliament asked a salient question: Which security agency is in charge of protecting the very institutions of democracy upon which the Westminster system relies? After a protracted inquiry, the answer it produced was: "No one.""

The Voice campaign was infected with disinformation. Who's in charge of inoculating Australians against lies?

Of the many lessons of Saturday's referendum on the Voice to Parliament, there is one which must be more urgently addressed — our appetite for mistruths, writes Linton Besser.

The Voice to Parliament debate has been co-opted into a racism litmus test by mainstream media - No for "racist", Yes for "not racist". However, First Nations activists have been protesting and expressing their concerns on the covert, systemic racism of the Yes campaign; from the parallels to other well-meaning but harmful assimilation tactics throughout Australia's colonial history to the white guilt, saviourism and paternalism of prescribing a powerless Voice as the best/only choice for Indigneous people.

@FerdiMagellan @ApaulD
Yes absolutely correct. They've run out of things to say so just rip down ppls #YES posters.
There's been vandalism in our quiet suburb too.
