jibber jabber voice

I've been worried about this "Voice" to parliament.
Two votes for each person who can claim to be blak.
I worry no longer.

The referendum wording has been released. Presented with tears of joy from the politician who sees it as an easy way to buy votes.

So what will we be asked?

After many months of effort, an unelected "working group" -- an early Voice -- has come up with a suggestion (which is already being debated, for and against).

We will *not* be asked to add recognition to the constitution. Rather, "In recognition of ... as the first Peoples of Australia". *Not* "we recognise them as..."
Meaningless drivel. get to the main point.


The working group wants us to vote to... allow Parliament to set up a body which will be called "the voice"

is that really the best they can advise? that we let Parliament do what it wants. what a waste of time.

i was worried that a blak voice would decide to give its members a third vote. and a fourth...

now i realise... given all the time in the world, they will not even decide to turn up for another meeting. unless it comes with a free lunch.
