Since Burleigh & tbb were gromz > We Anglophile kids were grouped into 4 Aboriginal Mobs!
Yes Like Stolen Generation...(No choice)
All ages -Rounded up alphabetically by surname as local Mob.
Each 'n' every day Mon-Fri this was who you now were & represented by Name & Colour!
We're then made to compete fiercely as Warriors against other tribes (Class mates).
We're all graded physically even mentally with leaders of Tournaments as such.
Our whole worth at school was under this prescribed Mob Rule...from before to now & beyond!
If yer confused it works like this...
(These are actual Burleigh Mob examples..Yes! These Mob / House Names represent our Area!)
Your Mob's Tribe is yours until you leave school > No one must ever mingle or swap Tribes > Taboo!
Burleigh Heads State (Primary) School kidz are allocated Burleigh Mob's ~ (Time of Day)
Kyeema = Dawn / Lentana = Morning / Wiruna = Sunset / Alawarra = Evening
Marymount College (Catholic) kids are allocated Burleigh Mob's ~ (Place of Being)
Allambee = Quiet Place /Patanga =Home in the Trees /Katandra = Among Birds /Bulimah = Beyond Sky
St Andrews College (Lutheren) kids are allocated Burleigh Mob's ~ (Sea Creatures)
Wardjam = Whale / Binging = Turtle / Gowandi = Dolphin / Jubi = Crab
Having said that...Very few locals / Mob if any know or care what tbb just charted.
These Mob names were allocated to these Burleigh schools over 50 years apart.
Outside of each school these names mean little to another...
But as tbb has just demonstrated that as a Town they mean a hell of a lot for local reconciliation!
Again...only if one is proud of Town then Mob Spirit shines thru...sadly few know to share such!
eg: Big Bro is #1 [NO] Voter.
tbb presented a copy of this tribal secret to Big Bro...seemed nonplussed...then tried to regather it!
Then he clamps down...Wot are doin'...I wanted that!
Now! See & Feel it's power of Reconciliation within us 50 years on...It's Powerful Personal Voodoo!
That each learning institution of all faith sourced Local Mobs for Prized Inspiration for Youthful spirit.
Respect has everything to do with it...tbb was most proud to compete under this Burleigh Mob rule!
Doubt if these Flagship Mob Spirit banners will ever change...why would they...we all can & do learn!
Lesson of the Day : These little things mean the world to all, once reminded of their spiritual worth.
Interesting that School Spirit is seldom given worth but when married to the Mob, that's another level!
remember seeing a keynote, tbb, titled something catchy like 'why do you believe what you believe, if you know, had you grown up in different circumstances, you would believe something different?'.
Well, there goes southern, boys, it's what happens to people who care about the human side of this issue, when it is treated as sport. They fade, flabbergasted.
But I agree with your above point, indo, it's shocking - don't FNP realise they should be well-behaved, meek and grateful, just like 'new-Australians'? That's the only way we'll get more yes votes, if the undecided feel 'they' truly appreciate who's in control of this place and that it is only through our concessions that they might be granted things they ask for?
Indo yr wankerism is increasing exponentially... "just so hateful and bitter"?? Have u actually listened to these ppl? They sound pretty reasonable and balanced and logical... now and then emotions may strain but when ppl like u and burley show the stupidity in person in the ridiculous no arguments im amazed theyre really not bitter and hateful.... look in yr own heart u dope.
I’m voting no simply because I do not trust the government. Nothing else[/quote] [burleigh quote]
At least now I know what im dealing with... I'm sorry for debating with u burley... I really just didn't realise how dumb u are...until now.
Good luck with trying to understand anything for the rest of yr life champion.
Burley and indo
Stick with what u know...
Feel good about yrselves and go vote no
I'm a bigger fool for trying to reason with fools... with ppl like these two Australia's in good hands

How low can the no voice go ? Voice to Parliament No campaigners accused of asking volunteers to spread 'fear and misinformation' https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-09-12/no-campaigners-accused-of-spread…
Amazing how many fall for the fear and doubt campaign.
@Supafreak. Low, real low. Low life, scared , arrogant and selfish. AW
Did you read the article?
It was an accusation from Noel Pearson
"Mr Pearson told the ABC that the No campaign calling Australians and "putting the message of fear and misinformation out there" was a "deliberate tactic".
The aspects mentioned are in the full version of the Uluru statement of the heart, and also been talked about openly in videos etc by people like Thomas Mayo.
Thats the problem with the Yes camp, they have said all kinds of things in the past and put these things in official docs and videos but now they are trying to tell people a different story.
And im sorry but most people aren't fools, they know when they are being lied too.
Ha ha are you serious?
We are talking about nut job activist that just cant help themselves, they try to change their tune and say all the right things to sway people but sooner or latter their hate and bitterness and thirst for power and money, cant help but come out and they go back to saying the things they really think or believe.
Basically leopard's cant change their spots.
Morning indo , thought you’d be along soon, enjoy your day . I’m guessing you will be busy .
When my kid was in prep, every morning as they mark the roll the say good morning in Yugambeh language. Once per week they also learnt the language. Add this to no steps moving forward Southern.
I believe this is another great step at bridging the gap for future generations but Southern believes nothing has changed in 20 years. FNP are celebrated in schools.
Southern, this is just one example of one school. Your views of doom and gloom are very extreme and reckless.
Burleigh. Hi, hope you are well.
Why is there a gap ?.
Not one person has yet to explain to me about how they would be affected by FNP voice being represented in our constitution.
It really is time for Australia to adopt a more mature mindset than the one that currently exists, totally lacking empathy when it comes to humanitarian issues.
Why are Australians in general, so selfish ?
We are viewed by other countries as being a great, lucky , fun loving, helpful volunteering , happy go lucky people who all band together when the chips are down nation.
It’s all a facade.
Behind that larrikinism lies skeletons in the closet.AW
Why the gap? I think you know. We all know.
What I fucking hate is people like southern and harrycoopr coming here with their doom and gloom predictions for FNP if the voice doesn’t get up.
Changes have been happening, Our future generations are thankfully learning about FNP culture, their language. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island flags flying proudly in schools.
FN leaders in primary schools.
Clearly if these changes are happening, there is a voice already because when I was at school NONE of this was happening. I went to school in Bundjalung county with over 50 Bundjalung boys and girls at my school.
I really wish we could have had this education.
Is more needed? Sure. But change is ALREADY happening.
What I don’t trust is the government selling us a car but only showing the wheels.
This is why I’m voting NO
@burleigh , there’s a process before you can view the whole car , but I’m sure you understand this . https://voice.gov.au/sites/default/files/2023-06/voice-fact-sheet-2-eng…
Burleigh. Your opinion.Thanks for replying.
I agree with most of what you’ve stated, you’ve touched on a topic thats been a life bugbear of mine, one that i think is one of the root causes of the differing opinions and prejudices towards FNP having a meaningful voice.
How could we have ever expected our developing society to ever show empathy for FNP, when in reality, past governments with inherited attitudes, agendas and the sheer lack of any relevant education about all things pertaining to Aboriginal history, didn’t..
The gross deliberate ploy of NOT providing young scholastic children ( who we know are the most impressionable) with the truth about Australia’s history was a very big mistake.
Instead of telling the truth (something that’s almost entirely evaporated from current day living) about Australia’s history, starting with the original inhabitants of it , we totally and purposefully avoided the topic, instead we pedalled out all this garbage about early explorers from Portugal, France, England, Netherlands,Spain etc. and heralded early European circumnavigators as some kind of’ miracle on the sea’. Try running that one by the Polynesian people,
My earliest and only memory of Australian history was Captain James Cook, rammed down my throat at primary and to a lesser degree at high school. Really, is that all we’ve got to hang our hats on. Geez
Cook,I believe from what I’ve read was a good mariner and fair to his crew and band of helpers. He had minor altercations with FNP, not just here but elsewhere, ultimately being killed in Hawaii by a FNP.
So, what went so bad for Australia after that point in time?
The disgusting behaviours toward FNP that followed by those who arrived after him, I think, set todays current attitudes.
Mass slaughter across Australia organised or perpetrated by some of the most revered individuals at the time and whose surnames sickeningly still exist today in the names of towns, highways, islands, parks.etc. around the country .
Still a long way to go, my opinion. AW
One last thing burley u dope... i never came here with doom and gloom. Not only are u stupid but a liar as well. You vote no cos u dont trust the gubment... u vote no cos u dont like them uppity blak activists... u vote no cos u feel u know better... yr truly an idiot.

Wow, nailed it.

I like to think those things don't have to be mutually exclusive.
AndyM. True, agree.
I haven’t even started on the treatment of Australia’s biota yet, what people overseas or those contemplating a holiday here think about Oz from an environmental perspective, its all smoke and mirrors at our end, my opinion.
Don’t know if I’ve the energy yet to launch into that. But i did promise Velocityjohnno to write something grand about coastal dunal systems and ‘A” frame peaks or the lack thereof. AW

Fair to ask for Boycott of Voice if AEC can't meet only prioritized basic Human need!
So just how far did AEC get to meeting their 11 Sept Indigenous Pamphlet deadline.

Some of the Yes campaigners might genuinely have a fear that this is getting towards the last role of the dice for them, if the yes voice doesn’t get up it will be another kick in the teeth and their spirit will take a beating . For the majority of Australians nothing will change regardless of the outcome but for some reason there is a false belief that this will change everything for everyone . It’s a small step in the forward direction . FNP will need to Face Everything And Recover , it won’t happen overnight but they deserve the chance at a shot at improving their circumstances .
thanks for asking AW , mums ok , good days and bad ones , she’s comfortable. I’m down for another op on 11th October AF came back and had to get an electric shock to put me back in rhythm. So it’s a AF ablation this time , hopefully this fixes it for good . Had a CT scan on heart today . Anyway back to the topic .
Positive changes will continue to happen regardless of the outcome.
To paint the sad picture that it’s the last hope is reckless and extreme.
I follow a fnp nurse on Twitter , she works the remote areas and sees firsthand what’s happening and not happening, this is the type of voice that can make a difference .
Does she take the 15k grants from the Australian Government to promote the yes campaign?
If she doesn’t, I’m interested. If she does, I’m not interested.
If you don’t know, I’m going to assume she does.
The waters are muddy
Have a look at her page and you can make up your own mind.
I don’t think the government pays anyone $15 gs , maybe yes23 does but I highly doubt the government does , glad to be proven wrong .Heres a quick clip of her @burleigh
No no no no no.... it's the last major chance for positivity. The race card is firmly in the No camp...thats dumdum burleys problem, a small group of ppl (a socalled race) get special treatment.
Yes is inclusive, positive, open to possibilities... No is divisive, fearmongering, negative. It's really simple. Only dummies don't get it.
She's using an obviously racist women to draw you in. Then saying the voice will benefit communities but not telling you how.
Plus i would almost guarantee she's claiming these 15k grants.
Sorry Supa, I like ya. But that clip did nothing for me.
Racism exists and i fucking hate it. It has no place in the voice discussion.
@burleigh , do you really believe the government is paying people $15 grand to promote the voice ? I know you’re voting no and nothing anyone says will change your mind . I voting yes and it’s good that we are both totally happy with our choice.
She's that same one that you have shared before dissing Jacinta yeah.
All i can say is thank god we don't have smell O vision yet, i cant say ive ever been keen on the smell of dirty Nimbin type feral's.
Yeah dont think individuals can get the $$$ but the yes campaign does pay up to 15K to groups or business to promote the voice.
Its been happening for months not working real well though.
"The yes campaign for the referendum will offer grants of up to $15,000 for a blitz of community functions supporting the Indigenous voice to parliament, in a bid to support thousands of events nationwide backing the change."
https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2023/jun/26/indigenous-voice…

Yes voters now ridiculing farmers.
As for being born into an asset, have you heard of native title? Best estimates are that more than 50% of Australia’s land mass is indigenous owned or controlled. And farms don’t become profitable by accident. Here’s an example of what not to do - didn’t seem to get a lot of coverage at the time (mass cattle deaths on indigenous owned pastoral leases):
https://www.countryman.com.au/countryman/news/aboriginal-charity-and-ei…
