what is the no campaign even going to celebrate??? like hooray we stopped indigenous people from being able to advise the government about issues that directly impact them!! yay! we did it!!!
The No campaign sent disproven misinformation to every household in Australia — existing laws meant the AEC had no powers to ensure what voters received was accurate or fact-based. That's an enormous problem that can and should be fixed.
Strong, historic speech from Albo — makes no apologies for going all in and pledges to find a different way to close the gap. He's not backing down on improving the lives of Indigenous Australians and is standing by his principles. This is what leadership looks like.
I am so saddened by the result of The Voice referendum tonight. I am so sorry to our FN people. I am ashamed to be Australian right now. You deserved better. The world is watching and has seen who the majority, apparently, of us are. I am not one of them and never will be.
Fucking horrifying. We aren't the lucky country, we aren't friendly. We're a pack of easily manipulated ignorant dickheads who'd rather listen to xenophobes and bigots than the world's oldest, and proudest continuous culture. I am bitterly ashamed of my country.

Asked what he’ll now do for indigenous Australians Peter Dutton said that between now and the next election he’ll take advice from Jacinta Price and then formulate policies. One voice. One. Do you get the irony?
How you vote is totally up to you but we’ve decided to run a radio advertising campaign urging people not to fall for all the bullshit that’s being thrown around by the NO campaign. Just don’t let anyone treat you like a mug - if you don’t know, find out! https://t.co/iyZ5aArZfS
Dear @abcnews,
I no longer watch #Insiders bc host David Speers doesn't even try to disguise his blatantly partisan pro-Liberal anti-Labor bias.
I no longer watch #AfternoonBriefing w. host Greg Jennett for the exact same reason. Nothing but RW propaganda. 😠 #auspol#journalism
@WhosFibbing @NotAll_Karens @AvelAretas666@KosSamaras Please fact check your statement and tell us exactly what it is that First Nations people are getting that is so fabulous.
More lies for the NO vote
@WhosFibbing@AvelAretas666@KosSamaras No you’re not, me either, I wasn’t around when the damage was caused but I am around now to help fix it - what I see the opportunity to help right the wrongs that saw my ancestors move ahead while First Nations continue to go backwards
I hear Amanda Vanstone is accusing the ‘yes’ campaign of emotional blackmail for using an Aboriginal child in an advertisement. Does Amanda not realise that Aboriginal children is what this whole campaign is about? A better future for the next generation. It’s literally the point
Don’t be fooled by Peter Dutton:
If you don’t know, find out.
The AEC folder, delivered to all voters, explains how it works.
They’ve been here for 60k years, we turned up about 300 years ago. It’s time to LISTEN to them
Vote Yes
How could John Farnham be even more of a legend than he already is? By doing this 👇- “gifting” his Voice to The Voice
So proud to have even a small role in this historic moment
Pls RT THE SHIT OUT OF THIS ad as buying TV spots is very 💵🫰
Thank you for making our souls and hearts soar Megan Davis & Auntie Pat Anderson
