‘Shamed’ Aussies sleepwalk towards apartheid

GUILT-ridden Australians are being persuaded to vote with their hearts –not their heads – as voters side with Anthony Albanese’s proposed race-based constitutional changes. 

While senior Aboriginal Australians have warned of irreversibly enshrining a black Voice to Parliament, the PM’s feel-good political spin appears to be winning out. 

Indigenous people are in the constitution like every other Australian. Every part of the constitution is about us and how we’re governed. The Voice will be about Indigenous Australians – and no one else.
Warren Mundine
Former ALP Federal President

In a Newspoll survey published in The Australian newspaper this week, 56 per cent of voters indicated they were in favour of constitutional change, while only 37 per cent remain cautiously opposed. [See full survey results below.]

Mr Albanese suggested on the weekend that his proposed amendments were mere “common courtesy”.

RADICAL

“We are asking people to say ‘yes’ to a modest but meaningful change,” he said.

“Not a radical proposition, a sensible one. A simple, vital and practical principle: that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have a say in the policies and decisions that affect their lives.

“Not just because – as I’ve said before – it is common courtesy to consult people when you’re taking a decision that affects them. But because the practical outcomes will be better.”

Opposition Leader Peter Dutton is expected to decide by next week on what position the Liberal Party will adopt, with the Nationals having collectively decided late last year to oppose it.

Aboriginal leader and former ALP Federal President Warren Mundine has warned Australians were being deceived with tricks and emotive language into supporting an Aboriginal Voice.

He also advised the Prime Minister that it would be safer to legislate the Voice rather than enshrine it.

FAILED

“We’ve had many Indigenous bodies, including four failed ones,” he said.

He said Mr Albanese should prove the Voice is not another failure, like ATSIC, before constitutionally imposing it on Australians.

“Legislate the Voice tomorrow – and show us,” he said.

“Indigenous people are in the constitution like every other Australian. Every part of the constitution is about us and how we are governed.

“The Voice will be about Indigenous Australians and no one else.”

Federal Senator Jacinta Price agreed Australians were being “duped” into voting for the Voice.

OVER-GOVERNED

“Aboriginal people are over-governed, we have so many gatekeepers on so many different levels,” she said.

“This is another gatekeeper as far as I’m concerned,” she told Sky News Australia.

“I say to those people, search out and listen to the arguments of Indigenous Australians across this nation that want to be heard in this debate and who don’t agree with this concept.

“You’ll find it is largely those elite that have had a seat at the table that are duping you into thinking we haven’t had a voice.”

She argued the result of the Voice would be hearing the elite voices that have failed for decades, while vulnerable Aboriginal people “continue to go unheard”.PC

  1. I seem to recall Kevin Rudd apologised for what happened 200 years ago. We had no input-we were not there. We’re sorry but it is what it is. Now is the time to make something of yourselves, those who haven’t done so already. Move on! Many nationalities have moved here-the one that is of my generation is the Vietnamese. What their country went through! Yet they came here, got together, helped one another assimilate and got on with it. At no time prior to those 200 years did those early folk produce a Parliament with laws, create taxes to pay for hospitals, community facilities, Police and Armed Forces. But those who have arrived here have done just that and to my knowledge, the majority of us are not racist. We believe in a fair go! So-get on with it. You’re not entitled any more. Make a future for yourself and stop the wingeing, pity me etc. And to Mr PM-very disappointed with you. I had high hopes that you would lead us out of the Liberal wilderness. Get on with the real issues-cost of living, climate changes, housing and stop wasting your time and ours. Get on with the real issues or go! Oh-and Alice-appoint a Tsar like for Covid and tease out those who are making life difficult and fix once and for all.

  2. Why is Albanese Labor refusing to release details of their proposed referendum to change the Constitution? What changes and why? The 1967 Referendum provided for changes that now allow so called voice to be legislated in Parliament. On the other hand Albo has commented that the Constitution is “archaic”. And he has promised to implement the activist written Uluru Statement, during his election victory speech and since.

    On Credlin tonight Peta Credlin explained the reasons including the clues contained in Senator Thorpe’s arrogant outbursts and resigning from the Greens, yet the Greens still support Uluru Statement objectives?

    In short, the activist Aboriginals that wrote the Statement, well educated former university student activists 1960-1970s, want “black sovereignty” and a Parliament for the 3.7% of population who claim indigenous ancestry, many of whom have other ancestry as well, a treaty with fellow Australians for colonisation by the British Empire from 1788 to 1901, compensation for what people now long dead are accused of doing for the alleged victims who are also deceased.

    Effectively Union Labor and Greens led by Prime Minister Albanese are preparing to change our Constitution to enable creation of a minority master race and the majority permitted to live in a vassal state situation and pay extra tax on wages, on property and other “rent” to the master race.

    I understand that many if not most fellow Australians who have indigenous ancestry are not supporting the activist’s objectives, and therefore Union Labor and Greens agenda.

    Don’t ignore this, get angry and talk about it.

    1. If you are too stupid to understand how our representative democracy works, and the difference between the constitution and legislation, and the role of parliament, that’s your problem.

  3. How many voices are enough?

    * A Prime Minister’s Indigenous Advisory Council.
    * More than 30 Aboriginal Land Councils and Native Title Legislation resulting in half of our country under indigenous Australian’s control.
    * More than 2,700 Aboriginal corporations.
    * The Council of Peaks, representing 70 top Aboriginal organisations.
    * State and Territory Governments and Departments of Aboriginal Affairs.
    * State and Federal MPs elected who claim indigenous ancestry, 11 in Federal Parliament.

    Noting that primary responsibility for Aboriginal Affairs is with State Governments, and Territory Governments via the Commonwealth.

    Then consider the Labor States at present preparing to legislate for State second voice for a minority based on race.

    What about the rest of multicultural Australians who will only have one vote?

    When ATSIC proved to be a very expensive failure after Labor legislated it into existence 1980s Labor supported the Howard Coalition Government to legislate to abolish ATSIC. If Albanese Labor got what they want and changed our Constitution to concrete a new ATSIV into position and it failed like ATSIC did we could not, our elected representatives could not get rid of it.

  4. Thorpe is affiliated with a mob called Warriors of the Aboriginal Resistance, WAR, which endorsed this statement some time ago:

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5324283/Aboriginal-protest-group-defends-burn-Australia-comments.html

    Basically it is a declaration of war and utter hatred of white Australia and democracy.

    Anyone who believes this Voice is some anodyne, harmless, morally correct restitution for past wrongs is really deluded. A lot of the black Australians and their white, communist enablers hate Australia.

    1. Thorpe was was so excited when activists set fire to old Parliament House Canberra, as a Senator her comments were unacceptable, if she hates our democracy and Parliament so much she should not be accepting our remuneration package including benefits.

      Her black salute (note US Negro) in the Senate and display of arrogance and anarchy angered many Australians.

    1. Either you are with them or you are a political enemy.

      In victory revenge, in defeat malice the Union Labor undemocratic factional system.

      How dare a former ALP National President go against the comrades.
