I though we were going to be friends now? and you're wrong about my mate. Never assume. Just like the voice vote.
Carn burleigh i was being nice!!
Anyway read the article. Worth your time. Just anither piece of the puzzle of both sides i guess.
Have a good day.
Good article udo , thanks for that .
Did wazza pull out or did spud tell him he had no chance after he went off script with the no campaign ? https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/mundine-to-quit-race-for-nsw-li…
Keep them coming JF that was awesome
^^ haha, agree, that was pretty sweet, JF
;)
I reckon even if the yes vote wins, the status quo remains, the only voice to parliament that will get heard is the voices offering $$ and corporate jobs, Rio Tinto, Fox. etc
In a powerful win for rational thinking Kamahl didn’t know, so he made the rational choice to find out, now Kamahl is firmly in the Yes camp
Don’t know, be like Kamahl and find out … #VoteYesAustralia and stand up to fear and ignorance, that’s all the No camp has … fear and ignorance
what was his famous line again ? …….. “ why are people so unkind ? “This thread has over 100 pages, about half of the post here have nothing related to the Indigenous topic, insults, lame nonsense videos, and just other garbage, but you choose a post about issue's in the indigenous system to claim not relevant?.
Its completely relevant to the thread and even relevant to the voice as no doubt the voice will have similar issues.
Translation of your post, i dont want people to see this(even paywalled) because its not good for the yes vote.
Me, i want everyone to see this, cause its good for the No vote.
Another day and just more insults from the Yes camp, and then you have gall to say we have poor form, and act all morally superior while supporting dividing our country on race.
2 intelligent, calm and empathetic young women at mine. Both have confirmed they're voting yes after listening to both sides of the argument and looking at what each means. I'm pretty proud of what they've grown into. I think the youth, well most of them, have got it all over the older crew as far as what's going to make Australia and the world a better place.
“ Me, i want everyone to see this, cause its good for the No vote.”
If your point is so important, then why isn’t it one of the reasons listed in the referendum booklet to vote no?

“Translation of your post, i dont want people to see this(even paywalled) because its not good for the yes vote.”
No, most people will see it for what it is: a pathetic gotcha attempt.
Exactly Indo. Who's really dividing the country. It's not the people voting no that's for sure.

Seems like Sam Newmans calls fell flat. And thats 90000 plus Collingwood bloody supporters of all things.
If theyre cheering the welcome to country, particularly after Newman's deranged comments, you'd have to think the no bombarded is just the very vocal minority.

The local highschool had a Yes banner up yesterday as i drove past. The kids are proud to put their stake in the sand.
There’s a petition going around to get sammy kicked out of the AFL hall of fame . Is he really in it ?
He sure is, Supa. He was a gun full-forward back in the 70s. He was my idol! Nowadays, I reckon he’s a disgraceful human being.
Didn’t he play with the great Graham’Polly‘ Farmer?
Jacinta Price claims to represent NT’s Indigenous communities but the data suggests otherwise. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/sep/23/jacinta-price-cla… Any discussion about politics in the NT quickly turns to the dismay so many locals hold that Senator Price lays claim to representing people in remote Indigenous communities. There is unambiguous evidence that most do not vote for her.
This is not opinion – it is clear evidence from the data extracted from an analysis of booth-by-booth returns gathered over the last two elections by the Australian Electoral Commission remote polling teams that visit Aboriginal communities.
Price’s election to the Senate in 2022 came overwhelmingly thanks to support from suburban voters in Darwin, Alice Springs and Katherine, not voters in the bush. Her constituency is predominantly white.
ah yeah nothing like a bit of mind control of the younger generations.
She’s not popular with the mob around here, especially after her recent comments.
As the shadow minister for indigenous affairs how on earth will she ever be welcomed on country at any time or place now or in the future? More like she’d be faced with a fuck off my country ceremony ….. yes, I know I’m an old fashioned person expecting Price to represent the people of her portfolio rather than the likes of Fox, the IPA and CPAC and/or their faceless elite backers
Grifter got to grift
From that above article …… In 2019 Price contested the House of Representatives for the CLP. In Yuendumu and Kintore, as one example, where about 500 people voted, she polled just 36 votes. In Utopia, Haasts Bluff and Papunya, where more than 600 voted, only 38 chose Price. In Hermannsburg, Areyonga and Ampilatwatja, from more than 600 votes, Price registered 46. The vote in other remote communities showed similar trends……….. Having found her niche conforming to the conservative version of an Indigenous leader, and being provided with an orchestrated campaign using platforms by boosters in the Institute of Public Affairs and the Murdoch media, Price has been fast-tracked into the shadow ministry in just the first year of her first term in parliament. It is spectacular leverage to achieve the levels of national prominence and recognition denied most politicians even after decades of service.
A remarkable achievement – especially for someone with apparently low support base among “her” people.
I think Newman took over ruck duties after Farmer left Geelong in the late 60s. Farmer returned as coach of Geelong in the mid 70s when Newman was a Cats star. I reckon Farmer would be pretty disappointed with Newman’s attitude towards Aboriginal people.
^ interesting post Supa.
@burleigh, young people I know are happy and excited about it, from all walks of life. When you raise people up, we are all raised up.
I agree that insulting No voters achieves nothing, except solidifying their views. As we can see from indo's above post, anything is seen as an insult now.
I'd be interested to hear what people think will happen on Sunday. After a No result, you would hope a bipartisan parliamentary initiated Voice would be suggested. Unlike ATSIC, obviously a Voice has no funding-control, can just say things i.e. 'we reckon regional centers need more of this' and it would be considered by the parliament of the day. No dramas really. And no damage to the precious constitution.
An interesting conservative suggestion I have heard, is that this referendum might have included a sunset clause - that after, say, 25 years, the body dissolves, the aim being to not need it in perpetuity. Would have been interesting.
Anyway, as I said to indo a million years ago 'you'll vote No, I'll vote Yes, and we'll make no difference together'.
Yes you’re correct with the history, I was told Polly was known as a gentleman in an era of thugs so he would probably only speak of disappointment but his heart would feel otherwise
no i did not know, abo to me is short for aborigine i can think of some but would never say or condone, apologies for offence and i see your point of view.
speaking of racist slurs s. r.'s pome one awhile back is way up there.
oh and of course "KING BILLY" music video exhorting fnp ppl to baseball bat whiiitey is o.k.??
yes aw please post more, but swellnet be warned it may backfire cos it's illegal to post material exhorting violence and hate, personal and or race based.
saw david baddiel (british jewish comedian) on tele 2 nights ago he did a doco on racism mainly towards jews.
he made the point that on his website he gets posts like "what about the palastine ppl then!" and he finds that offensive because he does'nt live there he is british and why blame him because of his race or religion, he is atheist but lives by it's ethics etc. he calls it racism cos he is pilloried by past and present events AND his race.
this is exactly the same racist attitude of the voice23 and the architects of this reffo.
said it b4 and i say it again ...oh the irony and the hypocracy of the voice elites,
How was the rally?
See there we go again....some just cant help themselves.
This is just the same old same old hate on Jacinta story.
While she represents the electorate she was voted into, ive never heard her say she represents all Indigenous communities ?????
So the whole premise of the story is bull shit.
The main mantra of Jacinta is to take responsibility for your own actions and make change yourself, its not a very popular view because it's so much easier to buy into being a victim and blame your problems on others and expect others or even the government to magical change them,(a road to nowhere) so yeah she isnt always well liked.
hahaha that photo on the right is the full on wtc ceremony and there were boos in the crowd at that game, so next week there is no full on ceremony just a speach by a clothed fnp of anglo descent, no warpaint, danceing or smokeing ceremony and the whole crowd roared in approval, excellent thats the way to do it.
last nights game was the same and the crowd approved it.
sam newman's opinion was about the smokeing ceremony with all the b.s.; fair comment, abrupt, rude, inflamoratry, offensive(to some) but a lot of ppl agree with him.
“ ah yeah nothing like a bit of mind control of the younger generations. “
- go derek zoolander !
Oh….. this from page 80 :
- “ my vote is being guided from my very good friend and very intelligent Bundjalung man.”
Aaaaaaand … from page 84 :
“ I’m voting no simply because I do not trust the government. Nothing else “
So… who’s controlling your mind burley ? ;);)
Strange you can try call others out - or is it just that you can relate to it ;)
Kinda hypocritical…
You sound confused, and not …um …not intelligent enough to make up your own mind…
- either that or you have a penchant for bending the truth to suit ;)
- but is it really you or just how you are being ‘guided’… ? ;);)
According to Sam, he was the first to surf Bells. hehe.
Any truth to that rumour?? Or just put it on top of the pile of bullshit that he contributes.
I think it was on the Howie games...
Nice touch at the Gabba with the welcome to country having a bit of Aussie oi in it.
Well done champ!
The welcome to country at the Gabba just now was epic!!
“ This thread has over 100 pages, about half of the post here have nothing related to the Indigenous topic, insults, lame nonsense videos, and just other garbage, but you choose a post about issue's in the indigenous system to claim not relevant?. “
- id you are very brave to admit to the lame nonsense videos and other garbage you have posted here. Well done, more than a hundred pages of gumboot mentality ;)
But… sometimes… like with the voice, one must dig a little deeper ;)
- try and find out who you really represent… and what you really represent…
It may be ugly, who knows ;)
In the meantime… you can always explore and better understand the meaning and purpose of your place here and out in the wider world…
- and even consider what a guy is and what he represents in relation to the metaphorical symbolism of a buffalo ;)
No matter how smart you are… you can always learn ;);)
Can you remind me again what her job is ? Shadow something something . I don’t think she’ll be in politics in 5 years time, just my opinion indo.
Ernie dingo will be so proud
bit of a let down hardly anyone turned up! on the bright side no yes youngins with loudhailers abuseing us oldfarts or academics spitting in your face.
seriously supa i reckon the yes is a win.
thing is though your voteing for something that started off as 1 page, vehemently denied there were 26 pages attached then begrudgeingly admitted there were 26 pages but they were not part of "it".
multipe videos have emerged of langton, pearson, davis (fnp constitutional lawyer) reid(lawyer) over a 6 year span saying voice first, treaty second, reparations third.
AND all 26 pages implemented, albanese said "in it's entirety".
it has now dwindled to 18 and now only 15pages with nada explanation of what has been deleted.
so you are voteing for something with no detail, bearing in mind they have planned this for 16yrs or is it 20yrs? bit suss don't you think?
on top of that they have moved the goal posts 3 times since the reffo lead up...no 26 pages then change their mind, only 18 pages and now 15 pages.
AND worse of all have accepted monies ($100mil) from the business council of australia paid by foreign corporations to corrupt our democratic process.
for these reasons this reffo should be postponed, what do you reckon?
I just watched the welcome to country and it was pretty epic.
I was about to rip into ya but then saw your last post.
Was sick. Amazing what happens when we're all willing to give a little.
