Shared this view on the Voice on Facebook, but too big to post here. Only my opinion, but we all need to think for ourselves on this a bit more. We seem to be getting swayed by the wrong things on this - social media, politicans .... learn about, and vote for yourself

I keep hearing ‘you have lost this, you may as well lay down and die’.
I don’t believe that.
I believe Australians will look at this on the day and say, ‘well this is a decent, honourable, good thing for us to do.’ – at Broome, Western Australia

I asked the people of East Arnhem Land what they wanted for the referendum. The answer was universal and compelling #auspol #Referendum2023 #VoiceToParliament

To the Australian people, young and old.
I have lived through many of these extraordinary moments in this country.
The Voice is now our moment.

WE are so proud to reveal our building makeover that continues to tell our story 18-months after the floods, celebrating rebuilding the Koori Mail - our national Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander newspaper - on the lands of the Widjabul Wiabal people of the Bundjalung nation.

The Voice referendum will be October 14.
I’ve walked this path long enough to know this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for change.
So get enrolled and start the conversation with your family and friends.
This will be a historic campaign. – at Adelaide, South Australia

I would actually prefer if Nine just showed the rain falling on the covers for the entire day instead of a replay.
I’m more likely to watch the former.

Was honoured to join the 'Referendum Roadshow' in the Kimberley last week. It lifted my spirits and energised my optimism about the upcoming Voice referendum. Reflections here @NatIndigTimes

Geelong Grammar accepted liability, but then revoked it when they saw how much it was estimated to cost them. #4Corners The matter was ultimately settled. But threatening a permanent stay saved them millions.

Nationally, the average CLC turns away about 80 people a week through lack of resources. Investments in our sector give more people access to justice and generate savings for govts down the line. Our work keeps people in jobs and homes and out of hospitals, courts and prisons.
We thank @VicGovAu & Attorney-General @JaclynSymes for their support for CLCs, but there is always more to be done. We encourage more funding to ensure that the people most in need can access legal help to achieve fair outcomes.
