Thinking on 'left behind places' in regional, rural and remote Australia. Clear demographic (and political) divide reflected in Yes vote in the 2023 Indigenous Voice Referendum. Inner metro support while rural regions said no. #VoiceReferendum #Regions #RegionalFutures
The Greens must face some truth-telling. I hope Greens supporters receive this message in the spirit it’s intended, as constructive criticism, and respond as gently as I have attempted to be in providing this critique. #greens #auspol #voice #voicereferendum
Some of today’s political commentary may regrettably sting even some of those broadly on the same side. #auspol #anthonyalbanese #peterdutton #donaldtrump #voicereferendum
If Labor get defeated by lies, disinformation & fake news (a la trump) then they will let down ALL Australians. The #VoiceReferendum is a classic example of how effective disinformation is. @albomp.bsky.social you witnessed the “No” debacle. We want a truthful election for our country’s future.
“Move on” & “why can’t they just forget about it?” were just 2 of the racist, hateful statements made during the #VoiceReferendum here in #Australia in 2023. How is a group of people meant to forget 200+ years of genocide, oppression & destruction of their families, culture & home? #Can’tForget
Gittins on the money.
The sheer timidity of this government after the #VoiceReferendum crashed broke my heart.
#Albanese became absolutely gun-shy of standing for...well, anything.
Please let them get some spine back for 2025. Please.

Like the 14 October 2023 #VoiceReferendum here in Australia, it’s all about racism. There are so many good reasons at the moment to hate people and the colour of the skin or the religion they follow certainly not two of them. I’m going back into my bubble of denial. It’s too depressing out here.
»The recent campaign for the Referendum has undoubtedly also provided realities that need to be addressed. The knowledge of the problems and history of Indigenous people in the wider society is seriously inadequate and superficial.«

'Labor has forgotten quite how far apart its rural voters in QLD and WA are vs NSW and VIC voters.'

'Fraud and theft from the Indigenous Affairs budget should have been the central argument for people pushing the “Yes” vote. And for people pushing the “NO” vote they needed to address how they planned to stop the fraud and theft'

It has proven to the world that we are a deeply racist country, & until we address our prejudice and denial, there is no hope for truth telling & treaty, let alone to closing the gaps between first nations & the rest of Australia. /2 #VoteYesAustralia #VoteYes #VoiceReferendum
Well'p so much for the referendum. #VoiceReferendum #Referendum2023
Referendums suck.
So much misinformation gets peddled.

*sigh* I would like to apologise to the world for the amount of blatant racism that's going to be coming out of Australia after today. We tried to do the right thing for our indigenous people and unfortunately it looks like lies and ignorance has won.

"The progressive no case, as it is called, is based on concerns over sovereignty, participating in a white person’s process, the lack of power the voice holds and the desire to progress truth telling and treaty ahead of the voice"
#Referendum2023 #VoiceReferendum
“The Blak sovereign no campaign, it should be noted, is separate to the main no camp and has not endorsed these arguments."
#VoiceReferendum
'Anyone associated with the “No” campaign should be deeply ashamed of themselves, whether they themselves spread lies or simply denied the lies were taking place'

'It speaks volumes about the conservative “No” campaign that, much like the Brexit “Leave” campaign before it, they didn’t think they could win this fight without outright lying about what was on the table'
