There is a leaked txt message from a Liberal MP that confirms the strategy of Dutton and the coalition was to totally annihilate the referendum to advance his own political objectives and enable the LNP to gain a strong starting position for the next election.
They see the resounding No result as a proxy for their support among voters.
Dutton was willing to crush Indigenous people in order to gain political advantage - a low act from this dog

Going by no voice campaign’s arguments, federation itself would have been defeated

Neither equality nor detail were offered at the federation referendum and it would have failed too if Saturday’s arguments prevailed

Uluru Statement from the Heart
Net zero by 2050? Too late. Australia must aim for 2035

We’ve wasted a lot of time delaying climate action. As the damage becomes ever clearer, it’s time to accelerate the transition.

The Conversation

With all the negative nonsense going on about the voice, let’s bring it back to basics about what we will be asked and what will actually change in the constitution.
There’s absolutely nothing to fear & it will hopefully redress the long-standing imbalance in our society between First Nations peoples and the rest of Australia.

Hey Mastadon admins.... you might want to negotiate for some additional data space with your hosting partner. I gotta feeling there might be another surge of Twitter refugees...

Question for the women out there on the Aus.social server...

I'm having a discussion in the bird place with a group considering going elsewhere. They say Mastodon is is 'mind-blowingly moralistic and misogynistic towards women’s accounts. We will not go there in a fit.'

I haven't noticed this, but curious if any other women have had such experiences?

Front fence story.
