Voice to parliament referendum fails in defeat that Indigenous advocates will see as a blow to progress towards reconciliation

Australians have resoundingly rejected a proposal to recognise Aboriginal people in its constitution and establish a body to advise parliament on Indigenous issues.

Saturday’s voice to parliament referendum failed, with the defeat clear shortly after polls closed.

    The referendum was about permanently

    Lie. Not permanent, just more resistant to change.

    enshrining

    Lie. Not religious.

    an advisory body into Australian politics specifically to make race-based representations to parliament.

    Lie. Specifically to make CULTURE based respresentations.

    That is racist. Most Australians don’t support embedding racism into our Constitution.

    While “true”, not relevant, since nothing racist was being embedded. But it IS racist to try and make up a lie to mislead and oppress.

    They voted against it. The end.

    Lie. It won’t be “the end” until you racists finish massacring them all.

      Yeah, I’ve said enough. Not wasting my time on this nonsense any more. Feel free to read my other comments if you want some counter-arguments to your ‘points’. You haven’t said anything particularly original (apart from your strange belief that ‘enshrining’ must have a religious basis, which doesn’t warrant a response).

        You haven’t actually said anything. Wind and fury, signifying nothing. The definition of s blow hard.

        Just a useless liar, called out for his weak bs.
