There will be a lot of talk in the coming days about the referendum campaigns, but we should not forget that the No campaign lied totally.
It lied, everyone associated with it lied, everyone associated with it operated in bad faith.
This will be the model for every election.
The Israeli government has cut off food, water, and fuel to 2 million people inside Gaza. Collective punishment is not only contrary to international law, it is inhumane and illogical. How will this deescalate the violence rather than radicalize many more? It is madness.
The Norwegians have had the Sami Indigenous Parliament for years.
The Canadians have Section 35 in their Constitution regarding Indigenous peoples for years.
Aotearoa New Zealand has the Treaty of Waitangi for years.
Honouring First Nations Peoples will not harm you.
Trevor Menmuir saw the need to re-engage local Indigenous kids in Derby with schooling - in a way that worked for them. By incorporating cultural teachings and time on country into the curriculum, they've brought kids back who had given up on an education.

How do we live in a country where news organisations can publish the contents of someone’s phone in an attempt to shame them into silence or death and not one agency cares to investigate?
No right of reply, no context and half truths published everyday for months.
This is the company that No voters will be keeping. At Cootamundra Girls’ Home in NSW, girls of the stolen generation were taught to “think white, act white, be white.” How can this still be happening?
Shocked by this from Former MP Gary Johns on stage at @CPACaustralia telling the audience that if Indigenous Australians want a voice they should "learn English" and encourages Indigenous people to stop "playing the role of an Aboriginal Person".
NEW: Peter Dutton blocked priority crime prevention grants for Indigenous communities in favour of less-worthy projects favouring Coalition seats, including protection for “bowling greens”. Nhulunbuy missed out on CCTV funding — two months later, it was engulfed in crime. #auspol
@joshgnosis I haven't listen to this yet, but I recently watched a brilliant movie-length documentary about her life made in 2022. Link to the official trailer https://t.co/KCtBm0Zdsz
