@inkydeedi@GarlandPhilip@hilltophoods Read the Uluṟu Statement. This was asked for by First Nations ppl. Go have a look who is supporting and who is against the voice
@inkydeedi@GarlandPhilip@hilltophoods Agreed. But that’s the only way we can change the constitution
The status quo is unacceptable. Listening to First Nations peoples through a Voice to Parliament is how we achieve better health, education, housing and employment for Indigenous communities. It’s that simple.
@GarlandPhilip@inkydeedi@hilltophoods Ok. Members of Parliament are elected to serve their entire electorate. An Aboriginal MP isn’t elected to represent Aboriginal ppl.
And this isn’t about putting more First Nations MPs into parliament. It’s an advisory group.
@GarlandPhilip@inkydeedi@hilltophoods There’s been at least two surveys that show mob are around 80% yes. Also what does having Indigenous MPs have to do with it? Their job is to rep their electorate, just like any MP
Imagine toeing the Liberal party line SO hard that you stand in front of a burning house and deny it needs help. Just to appease racists. Absolute trash.
To those racists who ring @FPDNAus , your racism will not be tolerated. We will hang up on you. Racism is cowardly and it takes precious time from us that we need to support our community members with disability.
If @katherine_deves was serious about protecting women, she’d change her hashtag to #savewomen and start documenting the fact that in Australia CIS men kill a woman every single week.
