The Indigenous Voice debate is getting “very heated” as arguments on both sides get “increasingly desperate”, says Sky News host Chris Kenny.

“Now I don’t think anyone should be ‘bandying’ about the term ‘racism’, on any side of this debate,” Mr Kenny said.

“I’ve criticised Yes campaigners for the way they’ve attacked the No advocates, and I’ve criticised some of the No advocates too.

Labor is ‘getting desperate’ to promote the Voice with ‘simplistic, asinine arguments’Sky News host Rita Panahi says Labor is “getting desperate” to promote the Voice to Parliament with their “simplistic, asinine arguments”. “Even people you would expect to be a little bit smarter and a little bit more measured,” Ms Panahi said. “Some of these analogies are so asinine that you can only laugh, but this is all they’ve got. “All they’ve got is to attack people as racists for not supporting it.” Projection at its best. Here's Rita... 'Simple' is what Albanese does best....there's not a whole lot going on in his vacant head!

None of Peter Dutton’s questions about Voice to Parliament ‘remain answered’Shadow Attorney-General Julian Leeser says Opposition Leader Peter Dutton wrote 15 questions to the Prime Minister on the proposed Voice to Parliament and “none of them remain answered”. “When you read reports from Labor Party gatherings in relation to promote the Voice, people are asking similar questions,” Mr Leeser told Sky News Australia. “The government needs to explain this to Australians if they expect people to vote for this in a referendum.” And now Australia has Billionaires Donating money to the YES VOTE what a unfair joke. Why do we care these people cant even win an election Silence is an answer. The real question is what are people going to do when the referendum fails & Labor legislate it anyway?

‘Development’ in the Indigenous Voice to Parliament referendum debateSky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell says there has been a development late last week in the Indigenous Voice to Parliament referendum debate. Mr Clennell said the Solicitor-General and the Attorney-General provided advice to the Referendum Working Group that “they might like to alter the referendum question”. “The proposal will – as I understand it – involve the Voice being required to give advice to both parliament and executive government,” he said. “The group was adamant that executive government be in there. “The Attorney and Solicitor-General were saying perhaps a line could be added stressing parliament had the power to legally implement Voice recommendations – that has yet to be accepted.” How can a “Democracy” be held hostage by a racially appointed non elected minority? Black Dictatorship Australia. What was that Labor realised it would be an emphatic “No”! The Voice is a con job, just like Covid was 🖕🖕🖕
