SYDNEY: Support for a proposal to amend Australia's constitution to enshrine recognition of Indigenous people has edged higher, according to a poll published on Tuesday (Oct 3), although most voters intend to reject the change in a referendum now underway.
Early voting on whether to recognise Indigenous Australians in the constitution and create a "Voice to Parliament" to give them an avenue to advise the government on matters affecting First Nations Australians began on Monday.
The latest Guardian Essential poll showed support for the "yes" vote had risen two points to 43 per cent over the past two weeks, while backing for a "no" vote slipped two points to 49 per cent. The shifts are within the poll's three-point margin of error.
A "hard no" group in the survey of 1,125 voters outnumbered "hard yes" respondents by 42 per cent to 30 per cent.
Voting in Australia's first referendum since a 1999 rejection of a proposal to become a republic closes on Oct 14....

The kind and caring foxes are having a referendum in the hen house to decide whether to protect the rights of the hens from the foxes. Can you believe that? The white men came to Australia, massacred the natives, treated them as sub humans, stole the land from them and called it theirs, gave it a name, Australia. No one cares about the rights of the natives, what human rights, and now they are calling a referendum to decide the fate of the native people, the original people of the land, the real owners of the land. Oops, according the the Christian Doctrine of Discovery, subhumans liked the native people, have no rights to land ownership. Such rights are only for the white men, the real human beans.
Now with the white men in majority, they are going to vote for or against the rights of the native people, now a small minority, unable to vote against the tyranny of the majority in what they called Democracy.
What a crazy doctrine to lie to the victims of their colonisation. Can anyone really believe the foxes would care for the hens, would be kind to the hens, and would vote to protect the hens? Is this fair, is this justice?
Yes, this is white men's justice. This is white men's democracy and how white men protect the human rights of their victims. What a farce!
What do you think?
When the foxes voted to have fried chicken, they would proclaim that this is democracy and the chicken should be fried at the wishes of the majority.
ReplyDeleteHaha u very funny. Anyway the whites invented Kentucky fried chicken so those dudes would be fried by them.
DeleteWhen the Asian civilizations were flourishing the west was still in caves.
ReplyDeleteWhen descendants of hardcore criminals from Little Britain were unloaded on to Australia, it became no more than a penal colony of misfits that genocided the Aborigines to near extinction. Little Britain wanted to isolate these prisoners away from their own country, far far away. Now fighting for the rights of their victims. Spare me the agony.
ReplyDeleteIsn't this what they are now trying to do in Africa as well? The difference is there are still 1.4 billion Blacks in Africa, while in Australia there are less than a million Aborigines left. Africans therefore have the numbers to fight back, not the Native American Indians nor the Native Australian Aborigines.
The Whites talk so much about protecting rights of minorities, knowing these people will never pose a threat and paying lip service is just to make them sound very caring and protecting human rights, while they go around the world creating wars, instigating regime changes and killing people without batting an eyelid.
The Australians. like the Americans, had massacred the majority of the natives until only a few are left today. Their way of solving the minorities problems is to genocide them to near extinction. So now no real problem and can pretend to be kind and caring.
ReplyDeleteAll their atrocities were not reported and deleted from their history books.
When the foreigners became the majority here, they would vote to decide the fate of the original Singaporeans, just like the Aussies voting to decide the fate of the aborigines.
ReplyDeleteFor the moment they are deciding who to hire and who to fire in Singapore's corporate scene. And you know who they would hire and who they would fire.
