To be fair it’s not the AEC’s fault. In order to get the coalition’s support, Labor decided to not require fact checking. Seems like an own-goal to me.
Im not sure I understand your reply.
My point about the republic was that if people say no to the Voice because it doesn’t go far enough, will end up killing the conversation that could become treaty. Just like the republic conversation died with the 1999 referendum
I get where you’re coming from, but killing a wild animal for being a wild animal can’t be the right approach.
K’gari has HEAPS of information about dingos. On top of that, if you get in ear shot of a ranger, they’ll talk to you about the dangers and how it’s always the tourists fault.
K’gari is a special place where dingos are still wild. Enjoying it simply involves respecting that wild animals are present and some precautions need to be taken. Otherwise, surely families can choose from heaps of other destinations that are safer.
This is exactly what happened with the Republic referendum. People didn’t like the model, so they voted no. It’s been 24 years since that referendum and in that time there has never been a conversation around a different model.
The public said no, so no politician wants to touch it.
If you vote no, treaty will never happen.
The government has rightly said that what the voice exactly looks like will be decided after the vote, because there’s no point putting the investment in (both in time and funding) to flesh this out, if the public doesn’t back it.
The specifics to the level you’re asking, in my opinion, make no difference to how you vote, with the exception of “Will they have power”, and that has been answered - the voice is to be consulted and their feedback collected, they have no power to enforce anything, but consulting them really is the least the government should do.
Changing now would not be a good idea. There’s a bunch of Apollo users looking for a new home (I’m in this group) and we’re all hearing about how great wefwef is.
Changing the name risks confusing people and missing new users.
He’s done a custom version of “I will remember you”. Worth downloading it for a listen
