The Voice

Nope, the spirits and sacredness is all made up.
The Woggle this mystical snake must be many miles long. I have worked on several sites fence building where there are wet lands and this mystical "thing" is always a problem. But if many dollars are forwarded on a daily basis then all is OK. B/S
 

yep, revenge is a nasty tool.
 
It's interesting the proponents of the yes case here seem intent on making the case that we're all racists, so we should vote yes for a most likely ineffectual bureaucracy.

In my experience however, the vast majority of modern day Australians are magnanimous towards the indigenous and would love nothing more than to see them do well, both economically and socially.

We don't see The Voice as being the right vehicle for for that, however. We see that as merely cementing the gravy train for the elites, no change for the grass roots, and the promulgation of community and racial division.

For this, we are called racists, when in fact the exact opposite is the case.

History will judge Albanese as the great divider and his dream of a Curtinesque legacy up in smoke. He will be like Whitlam, revered only by delusional Marxists.
 
Wayne in agreeance with you on this post except for the last paragraph, perhaps, maybe or not.
 
Had to cancel a couple, but more to do this arvo (they've got a barn).
Didn't see the weather change coming in Fog and drizzle, the wood fire is a comfort on these days, even though there is plenty to do in the sheds.
 
Wayne I notice in this artcle of getting grass root information only the well heeled were invited, not the average and not so average Struggle Street bods and hmm not a 1st Peoples inhabitant to be seen.
Perhaps the truth would play on his mind too much.
Better geting the top end of town's perspective, as they struggle to survive on their multi millions.
 
One of the reasons that I, along with obviously a few others, have reservations about a voice, is that I can see "the Voice(tm) being hijacked by white folks.
An example of this is the recent decision to ranme fraser Island K'gari.
From ABC News
How is that a language has had no written syntax forever, suddenly have words that are spelled one way but pronounced another.
Who decided that the word the original inhabitants, the Butchulla people, had for Fraser island should be spelt the way it is when the Butchulla had no written syntax at all?
I can see the dead hand of a white anthropologist here, perhaps believing that making up an obscure spelling somehow gives it more legitimacy.
I have seen the same garbage with the Edwards River referred to as Kolety in the MDBA reports, but they say it is pronounced Koletch.
How on earth they arrived at that spelling is beyond me. i wrote to the MDBA once and asked them how they got these spellings, but was told it was on advice form their first nations consultants.
Why they do not use phonetic spelling is beyond me. It cannot be as a result of cultural niceties or indigenous spelling.

Hmm over paid advisers seeing a golden cash cow on the horizon, perhaps.

I know of at least two of such cretins, white fellas hopping on the indigenous funding gravy train, sh*tstirring along the way to maximise their incomes.

It's farken disgusting in my opinion.
 

If we use Ayres Rock / Uluru as an example, most people I know often call it Uluru because we can pronounce it, it is easier to remember.

When they pluck letters out of the air just to make it difficult to pronounce, they also make it hard to remember, which means most people keep using the name they can pronounce.

Kind of defeats the purpose doesn't it
 
This is what these leftist jerks *actually think of the indigenous .

 
THE VIOCE in working motion
 
I respect your opinion but beg to differ

Cheers Rump the intentions of the Voice are very clear nothing like the negative comments here it will be a missed opportunity IMHO

Shame about the lack of moderation on-site these days some clearly are more equal than others ?
 
An apology is the right thing to do

Whether it gets up or not, is out of our control, it is a majority issue.
The one great thing it has done, is bring the aboriginal issue to a head, Labor will not be able to avoid doing something about the situation regarding aboriginals as they initiated it and the coalition wont be able to say they didn't know.
The indigenous MP's will have a greater input either way, as it has become a national issue, rather than a State issue, at last.
