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.’

All this will not bode well for the non-indigenous Australian citizen!
