‘As far as I am concerned, that any new government could achieve would be the final recognition of indigenous people in the Australian Constitution. Indigenous recognition would not be changing our Constitution, but completing our Constitution.’

Sometimes I think the Earth will end up like Mars. Rock, dust, no water, no oxygen, no life. And all because we didn’t pull our collective finger out and tackle global warming.

PS “Spirit of the game”?

Telling curators what wickets to prepare to suit your Bazball?

Wonder what wickets we’ll see now Bazball is losing. Maybe just clip and roll a green top in the outfield. Back to the usual way of trying to beat Aussies.

@joeldeane Glad to see you’re into cricket Joel. I was worried that Soph had to put up with non-footy parents.

@DonWeatherburn Hmm Don, do they offer a one size program or do they provide reasonable adjustments in the spirit of discrimination law and the multi government Australian Disability Strategy?
It’d be interesting to know if “intellectual disability” leads to automatic exclusion.

@PeterDutton_MP and who don’t have any conflict of interest…..

@ronInBendigo Correct, they have the innate power (and are not the original inhabitants who have been treated appallingly since us white fellas turned up).

[Jim Simpson @JimSimpson53]

Shocking that Indigenous Australians might share influence with Gina, Twiggy, the unions and all.

[Ron Dunn @ronInBendigo]

"After the Prime Minister tried to limit the voice, leading Indigenous working group member and law professor Megan Davis told The Australian: “The voice will be able to speak to all parts of the government, including the cabinet, ministers, public servants and independent statutory offices and agencies – such as the Reserve Bank” and declared the voice could not be shut up. Fellow working group member Noel Pearson has said that being able to have influence on all areas of government is at “the guts” of the voice."

You must be very sore trying to be on both sides of the fence @PeterDutton_MP

[Peter Dutton @Hon_PeterDutton]

On National Sorry Day, we recognise the pain and suffering by many Indigenous Australians.

For many the pain is still ongoing.

Thank you, Netball Australia! This is a rousing endorsement of the referendum on a First Nations Voice and its benefit to all Australians. 🖤💛❤️ @NetballAust @marinasgo
