First, The Voice, Then A Treaty, Then Reparations, Then…

Australia’s Prime Minister ‘Albo wants you to think the dangerous and divisive ‘Voice’ is just a feel-good virtue-signal that will make inner-city activists feel better about themselves … but the truth is hiding in plain sight.

And now the cat is out of the bag… the ‘Voice to Parliament’ is a TROJAN HORSE that threatens our democracy and would VANDALISE our Constitution.

We can’t make it any clearer.

The evidence keeps piling in.

Get this.

Greens leader Adam Bandt has just told the media he has received “guarantees on Sovereignty and funding to progress Treaty and Truth” from the Labor government.

In other words?

In exchange for Greens support of the Voice, Labor has promised to pursue a Treaty and give Indigenous Australians “Sovereignty” over land.

How would a Treaty work?

Well, New Zealand’s Treaty with the Māori means “the racial characteristics of each New Zealander influences who gets what say in managing national resources, making laws, and how laws should be applied,” according to the Institute of Public Affairs.

As a result, “New Zealand’s current constitutional arrangements are unfair, undemocratic, and politically divisive”.

Do you want that in Australia?

If no, vote “NO” for the Voice, and make sure your family and friends do too.

It doesn’t stop there.

Back in 2021, Albo said, “part of having a Voice to Parliament is to inform the processes as well, about Makarrata, about truth-telling, about treaty.”

Again, this is another admission that the Voice is not just an advisory body with symbolic power.

Instead, it is the first step in a total redesign of our democracy and constitution to disadvantage the average non-Indigenous voter because of their race.

…and, of course, the whole Labor party is on board.

Albo’s Environment Minister, Tanya Plibersek, says the Voice will “establish a Makarrata Commission”, which will “have responsibility for Truth-telling and Treaty-making”.

Labor Senator Malarndirri McCarthy says her party “will deliver on a national process for Treaty-making and Truth-telling…and  empower First Nations people in caring for land and water.”

Read between the lines here.

Labor Senator Pat Dodson has made similar points.

Recently he said that “to have a treaty, you have to have a voice, you have to have an entity, you have to have a group of people that have a standing or that … have credibility.”

The short point?

The Voice is just the first step.

Next will be a Treaty that will redistribute land, money and power to Indigenous activists.

Then it will be a Truth Telling Commission that will demonise Australia as a nation and indoctrinate our children.

You know what will be next … a change to the Aussie flag … another change to the anthem.

Or maybe compulsory welcome to country ceremonies before any public event?

The removal of every statue of Captain James Cook?

The list goes on…

Time to say ENOUGH.‘https://www.advanceaustralia.org.au/first_the_voice_then_the_treaty_then_reparations?

Australia’s “The Voice” will be Racist

This is an email received from the conservative ADVANCE.

‘Albo and the Labor party want you to think their referendum on the Voice to Parliament is just another woke virtue-signal.

They want you to think it’s merely a minor change to the Constitution … a “modest request”.

They want Australians believing that it’s nothing more than a small gesture to make our Indigenous brothers and sisters feel more included.

But it isn’t…

The Voice is a trojan horse the likes of which Australia has never seen…

The activists pushing for the Voice won’t tell you this, but Victoria has a version of it already legislated.

And right now, Melbourne’s mini-voice is demanding a “Black Parliament” – their words, not ours.

In 2019, Dan Andrews set up what became known as the First Peoples’ Assembly.

There to “represent Traditional Owners of Country and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in Victoria”, it has an “Elders’ Voice”, its own constitution, runs its own Indigenous-only elections and meets in the Victorian Parliament.

Its priority is to negotiate a “treaty” with the Victorian Government.

Using $65 million of Victorian taxpayers’ money, it’s pushing changes to Victoria’s democracy that will see power shift away from ordinary Victorian voters.

Victoria’s “voice” is open about the fact that “nothing is off the table, so we need to think big and push hard.”1

There is no exaggeration here.

These are some of the “First Peoples’ Assembly” specific goals for the treaty2:

Establishing a permanent representative body with meaningful decision-making powers – a “Black Parliament” of sorts.

Having a number of seats in the Victorian Parliament that members of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community vote for.

First Peoples oversight of the Victorian Government and public service for the benefit of First Peoples.

And the Andrews Government is backing them, saying in the announcement of the Treaty Framework3:

Treaty is a significant step towards transferring power and resources to First Peoples…

The Voice is not just about including our Indigenous brothers and sisters and giving them a say.

It’s about money and power, and changing our Constitution forever.

…and Albo is pretending it’s not a big deal.

The Voice to Parliament will divide us by race, it will threaten our democracy and – by looking at Melbourne’s mini-voice – we’re only just starting to see the real costs.’

The Left’s ABC & Their Woke NY’s Eve Coverage

We very seldom watch anything on the ABC but did turn to it for a very short time New year’s Eve! NOTE, I said SHORT!

‘The ABC’s coverage of Sydney’s world-famous New Year’s Eve fireworks has been blasted online as “a disgrace” and out of touch.

As thousands of people flocked to Sydney Harbour to view the spectacle, some viewers of the national broadcaster were less impressed with what they saw which was led by Charlie Pickering, Zan Rowe and Jeremy Fernandez.

Following the Calling Country fireworks display over the Harbour at 9pm, the live music commenced which featured acts such as Tones and I, Ball Park Music, Vika & Linda, Dami Im, Morgan Evans and Tasman Keith.

A segment of the coverage was also dedicated to this year’s WorldPride Festival, to be held in Sydney, which included a performance from drag queen Courtney Act.’https://www.skynews.com.au/business/media/australian-broadcasting-corporation-cops-backlash-online-over-woke-coverage-of-sydneys-new-years-eve-fireworks/news-story/06596cf1e8ece9d302b843eb5f6c2603?net_sub_id=282058248&type=curated&position=1&overallPos=3

Less Queen & More LGBTQI

We don’t watch the ABC but many Leftists do! Not surprisingly, they want less of the Queen’s funeral and more about the weirdo lifestyle many of them are seeking to live.

‘Darling of the ABC and former Insiders host Barrie Cassidy cannot understand why the national broadcaster is devoting so much coverage to the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

He tweeted during the week that the ABC had ‘misread its audience’ and given in to rank ‘populism’.

‘If you want wall-to-wall royalty you can get it elsewhere in spades. The ABC is better when it offers an alternative to populism.’

He makes a salient point.

When it comes to history, the ABC audience is far more likely to prefer it in the form of ground-breaking episodes of Peppa Pig featuring LGBTQ+ characters.

Last week, the ABC breathlessly reported that it had just aired an episode of the popular children’s cartoon featuring a pair of co-parenting lesbian polar bears.

The ABC headline read:

‘Peppa Pig introduces same-sex couple as Penny Polar Bear’s two mummies.’

Apparently, there had been a petition signed by almost 25,000 people wanting more LGBTQ+ representation among polar bears.’https://spectator.com.au/2022/09/abc-too-much-queen-not-enough-lgbtq/

Australia’s ABC’s Climate Alarmism

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation steals more than one billion dollars from the tax payer each year to deliver progressive Leftist/Marxist/Socialist news each and every day. One Nation’s Mark Latham is one politician that is willing to call the ABC out. Mark says ‘I wish the ABC’s Climate Alarmists would make up their minds. With rising sea levels, in Western Sydney we were supposed to get beautiful ocean views. But now in the article below, we are being told to abandon our homes, live underground and paint our roads white so they repel the heat. All in the middle of the coolest summer in memory. Just because of a few hot days since last week. You really need to read this article three times to make sure someone could actually write this fear-mongering nonsense. ABC: Always Biased Crap. A waste of taxpayer’s money. A media factory for Left-wing propaganda.

NYE & the Australian ABC

I don’t use Facebook much anymore but I do try to keep up with NSW politician Mark Latham among a few others. The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) of which Mark is speaking is a mouthpiece for the Australian Leftist/Marxist/Socialist/Communist/Labor folk.

‘WATCH THE SYDNEY FIREWORKS ON ABC TV? NO THANKS The Sydney New Year’s Eve show is on ABC TV, so it’s fireworks plus: Two mummies 9YOs transitioning A climate emergency Matt Kean up a windmill Pronoun policing Evils of unconscious bias and micro aggressions Bruce Pascoe telling us how Indigenous invented fireworks etc etc’https://www.facebook.com/MarkLathamsOutsiders/?ref=page_internal

Australian Broadcasting Corporation’s 7.30 interviews Dr. Sebastian Gorka & President Trump’s meeting with Putin

Watch Dr. Sebastian Gorka put the interviewer in her place at about 5.23. This Australian Broadcasting Corporation programme is typical of most abc news programmes which lean heavily to the left. The sad thing is this leftist propaganda machine is paid for by the Australian taxpayer!

DID LABOR WIN OR LOSE IN THE BENNELONG BY-ELECTION?

Keneallys loss or win If you think this was a victory for these two you are wrong. In spite of the picture the Labor Party candidate LOST! Just as there is FAKE NEWS there are FAKE PHOTOS!

 

In Australia it is getting harder and harder to get the real news. Most so-called journalists are biased against anyone that smells conservative. Even homosexual Milo Yiannopoulos gets bad press here all because his politics lean in favour of the conservative!

The point is this, look around and read more than one news web site. Now, that is hard to do here in Australia but if you are a conservative, you MUST  if you truly want to know the real news rather than the fake news put out there by MOST of the mainline media sources such as the ABC and almost all the free to air Australian channels.

If you don’t search for verification of the news you just may end up believing the loser is the winner!  

AUSTRALIA’S ABC BIAS

What did I expect when I sat down to watch the US Presidential Debate on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation’s (ABC) Channel 24? Yes, I should have known better than to begin watching 20 or so minutes before the debate as that gave me the agony of listening to the Hillary lovers  ABC had gathered together so they could spew forth their distaste for The Donald. As I watched and listened for perhaps five minutes I muted the sound until the debate began. Tinitus is sometimes a blessing.

I didn’t continue to listen to the ABC commentary after the debate as I already knew what road they would take but an example of the ABC post commentary from the states is posted below.

Now, two days after the debate who does the ABC see as the winner? Why did I ask? “Mr Trump lost the debate — and he knows it — but it may not matter.” What else would anyone expect from our ABC? http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-09-28/trump-lost-the-presidential-debate-and-he-knows-it/7883826

However, the ABC’s take on the debate winner differs from other sources. For instance; “Of the 21 polls (including CNN’s) mentioned in the Daily Mail story, Trump won 17 of them, including:

The ABC is so biased toward the left that I ask myself why I punish myself by watching it? One reason; no two reasons why I do are; I do not pay for cable television so I am limited somewhat on certain news sources and secondly the mute still works.

The first five or six minutes shows their bias but that’s the ABC!
