If all it takes to kill the Voice is two Aboriginal people who’ve been happy to front the disinformation campaign and an opposition leader whose disingenuousness can be seen from the moon, then this country is simply not capable of intelligent debate.
I was a descendant of convicts. On both sides. Within 10 years one was a blacksmith and other married to a cop. In that time tens of thousands of indigenous Australians were slaughtered. How can anybody find the two experiences analogous?
A clear breakdown of the nonsense from Chris Kenny
If we should all be treated the same, why have Indigenous Affairs?
"Either all these should go because they are 'divisive,' or if they're all worthwhile, surely we ought to have a Voice to give Indigenous people a say on them."
Pat Farmer arrives in Grafton tomorrow and I'm organising the event
For the first time, first nations people will be running with Pat into town
This is an interview with him today on the run, by one of the other people in my group
I’m hearing from volunteers around the country who have been door knocking. They report overwhelmingly positive responses.
When people have an opportunity to learn directly from well-informed fellow Australians, they appreciate it & tend toward ‘Yes’.

Well, the truth was always in plain sight. But this text from a Coalition MP confirms it.
Dutton’s arguments in Question Time this week were about his ambitions to be PM, not the national interest, & without a skerrick of care for Indigenous peoples hopes for fairness.
An exciting morning down at North Bondi with Noel Pearson talking about why a Yes vote for The Voice will make Australia a better place for everyone.
Noel got some help explaining it all from a Wentworth for The Voice volunteer.
BREAKING GOOD NEWS: Heard on @RadioNational radio today...
Voting enrolment has soared to an all time high pushed by younger people. For Indigenous people it has hit 94%, the highest EVER!
This is great news for the referendum!
#VoteYesAustralia for a better future for ALL🇦🇺's
#VoteYes if you want Indigenous Australians to have a Voice to Parliament on matters that affect them.
Vote No if you don't want to listen to Indigenous Australians. It really is that simple. Voting No is a blatant act of racist bigotry. #VoiceToParliament#Yes23
Dutton’s belief that “a single act of compassion” could endanger Australia unfortunately seems totally in keeping with his views and statements on the Voice today
Peter Dutton gets an A grade for consistency, but a big F for humanity and empathy.
