We would like to honour the men and women of the First Nations Regional Dialogues and the National Constitutional Convention at Uluṟu. Thank you for your mighty contribution to the nation. Thank you for the Uluṟu Statement from the Heart. Our people were excluded from the drafting of the Constitution. We were excluded from the nation’s constitutional order until 1967. We remain subject to the “Race power”. You were asked by the Commonwealth, “What is meaningful recognition to you?” And your answer was Recognition thru a Voice. The Voice is intended to include communities in Australian democracy and decision-making. History will remember the courageous and patient men and women of the Uluṟu Dialogues. It’s their legacy we celebrate today. Megan and Pat. Xx

Well researched article here from @UNSWLaw experts in @ConversationEDU on accuracy of statements in official 'yes' and 'no' Voice to Parliament cases. Spoiler.. misleading statements rife in one.

"Companies should be required to take action in the form of effective human rights due diligence.. proactively looking for risks of modern slavery in their operations & supply chains"

A review of #Australia's Modern Slavery Act has found "no hard evidence that the MSA... has yet caused meaningful change," recommending the law is strengthened.

"The Australian government now has a clear roadmap to move ahead rapidly," said @AmyJSinclair
