Addendum to P7's last... Wink

Via the AP email chains:

Quote:Dear P2,

Get a load of this:

“Our vision: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples heard, recognised and empowered.

“Our Purpose: We lead and influence change across government to ensure Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have a say in the decisions that affect them.

“Our Responsibilities: to provide advice to the Prime Minister and the Minister for Indigenous Australians on whole-of-government priorities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.”

Doesn’t that sound exactly like the Voice Anthony Albanese wants to put into the Constitution?

But it’s not. It’s the National Indigenous Australians Agency, set up by executive order in May 2019.

According to its own website, the NIAA is an Indigenous advisory body of 1300 bureaucrats with a budget of nearly $2 billion a year whose clear purpose is to provide advice.

The NIAA’s function is to oversee the way that policy is being implemented for Indigenous Australians using their regional and remote networks that are supposed to provide advice to the government.

It is everything they tell us the constitutional Voice will be. So why do they want the Voice? To constitutionally enshrine their jobs for life.

The NIAA has said that during the referendum it will be “playing a really important role in providing Australians with the information they need to make informed decisions when the time comes,” including “myth busting”.

So much for impartiality. This is an arm of the government, using taxpayer cash, to argue the ‘yes’ case for the referendum.

And if the Yes vote wins, they’ll have just enshrined their jobs and funding in the Constitution forever.

This isn’t about “myth busting”, this is deceptive, backdoor government funding for the ‘yes’ campaign after Albo said he wouldn’t.

This is a sneaky attempt at using YOUR money to make sure they’re on the Canberra gravy train until retirement.

This is not a “modest” proposal. It’s much more than an “advisory” body, and it’s not a symbolic gesture.

The Voice would be a divisive, dangerous and costly mistake that will pave the way for even more disastrous moves in the future.

It will open the door to ‘treaty’, it will open the door to split sovereignty, it will open the door to two countries, not a unified Australia.

This isn’t about Aboriginal people, it’s about politicians and bureaucrats securing their own futures while actively dividing Australians.

We have to say NO to the divisive Voice.

Yours for REAL solutions,

Quote:The NDIS | Pauline Hanson's Please Explain

We all know that Labor loves to spend your money like it's going out of fashion but they have taken it to a new level with the NDIS.

While a National Disability Insurance Scheme to protect the most vulnerable sounds good on paper the reality is the NDIS has become a scandal-plagued, scam-riddled, budget disaster!

Plus from (legend and possible future PM) Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price:

Quote: Dear P2,

In case you missed it, yesterday Peter Dutton and the Liberals said YES to REAL solutions, and NO to Labor’s Canberra Voice. 

They said YES to recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders as Australia’s First People in our Constitution, and NO to constitutional division.

They said YES to local and regional advisory bodies, and NO to Canberra elites having all the power.

This is an important moment in the fight against Labor’s dangerous, divisive and costly Canberra Voice.

Thank you, Peter Dutton! 

Meanwhile supporters of the Voice have been confirming what we feared all along.

Megan Davis, key architect of the Uluru statement, told us this week that Parliament will not be able to “shut the voice up” and the Indigenous body will speak to “all parts of the government.”

Greg Craven, a constitutional expert – and supporter of a constitutional amendment – said that the proposed change was "far worse than I had contemplated the worst position being.”

One thing has become absolutely clear since Albo announced the wording for the Voice referendum – the Voice will have the power to bring government to a halt, to challenge decisions it doesn’t like, and insert itself wherever it wants to.

The Voice is a dangerous threat to our democracy.

And so much for unifying, anyone voicing concerns about these broad powers is being shouted down by the likes of Albanese and his partisan supporters.

After months of ignoring the Coalition’s questions and concerns, and brushing off suggestions from shadow Attorney-general Julian Leeser, Albo claims: “I made it very clear the whole way through that I seek bipartisanship.”

But Albo’s Voice is dividing our country already.

He’s playing politics and trying to set himself up for a win-win situation.

If the “Yes” vote wins he plays the lone hero, if the “No” vote wins, he’ll blame everyone else for not listening to Aboriginal Voices.

Listen to him already:

“If not now, when? Indigenous people expect this to be advanced.”

But that’s plain wrong and he knows it.

It might surprise some of the inner-city elites to learn, but not all Aboriginal people think the same way!

Albo claims it’s an “opportunity for a moment of national unity,” but so far, it’s already dividing Indigenous Australians more than anything else.

You’ll hear me say it time and again before this referendum, this Voice is dangerous, it’s divisive and it’s costly – and we must say NO.

Yours for REAL solutions,

Labor’s sneakiness on the Voice is no better shown than by Labor themselves.

You could have an unelected body at the highest level in politics aligned politically with Labor and the Greens forever. There would be No mechanism to vote them out as there is no vote for the Voice.

And if you want to see the legislation for the Voice well apparently “enough is out there” !

Quote:Sandy

Get away from the Westminster system of responsible government, which means control of the various arms of government through Departments with Ministers at head (accountable elected representatives) and bad outcomes will follow.

Take independent corporate the (Un) Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) which Labor’s Gareth Evans created back in 1988.

That move has 2/3s destroyed our General Aviation industry. CASA has becoming a make work salary factory. It persuaded Parliament, inappropriately, to migrate virtually all the rules into the criminal code and has created a climate of fear and almost universal distrust or outright loathing of the regulator. We’ve lost hundreds of flying schools, maintenance personnel and charter operators because of an ever changing complexity of rules and permissions. Lots of new permissions for which CASA charges swingeing fees.


Astonishingly Mr. Albanese turfed the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) out of his Ministry in 2009, it’s now a basket case, see the Canadian Transport Board’s highly critical audit report.

We already have the National Indigenous
Advisory Agency that manages to get through an annual budget of two thousand million dollars, dollars that one suspects stay in large amounts in Can’tberra. How much good has this agency done? Ask the people of Alice Springs if they could use $two billion,$2,000,000,000.00 dollars every year if that was given to the local elected Council.


VOTE NO.

‘I rather be part of a Coalition’ where ‘people can be honest’: Jacinta Price

Country Liberal Party Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price says she would “rather be part of a Coalition” where people can be honest about a situation.

“The nonsense that has surrounded Indigenous Affairs for decades has been failing Indigenous Australians,” Ms Price told Sky News host Paul Murray.

“I would certainly rather be part of a Coalition where people can stand up and make a decision for themselves … than part of a Labor government who all toe the line … that things aren’t as bad as they actually are.”

Latest from Jacinta on the Voice -  Wink  

Via the AP email chains:

Quote:Dear P2,

They’ve been caught out again.

Despite all the pleading that the divisive Voice is safe and modest, truth keeps being exposed.

We saw it with Thomas Mayo, author of the book on the Voice and key Albanese Referendum Working Group member, who said the Voice is about punishing politicians, compensation and reparations, and building a black institution of power.

And now a member of the Prime Minister’s Referendum Engagement Group and key campaigner with Mayo, Teela Reid, has had her words exposed.

Teela was a leader of the Uluru Dialogue and one of Marie Claire’s 2022 Women of the Year.

She has been central to the Voice process and design.

She said the Voice is the “first step in redistributing power”.

It’s about compensation and reparations.

It’s about “demolishing the system”.

Those are her words, not mine.

Reid has even been out there, like Thomas Mayo, addressing the Search Foundation, which markets itself as the successor to the Communist Party of Australia.

In fact, she said, “I think that what we need is to get back to these radical roots of the Communist Party.”

It doesn’t stop there. She is very clear about what she thinks about Australia Day: it’s not about changing the date, it’s about “abolishing Australia Day”.

She’s so clear about it that when Indigenous Affairs Minister Linda Burney said the Voice would not advise on Australia Day, Teela Reid directly rebuked her posting on social media:

“It is truly disingenuous to be claiming mob won’t be demanding to #AbolishAustralia day. It started decades before the referendum, it’ll still be a demand after it.”

Talk about divisive!

With Reid, Mayo, and the many other key Voice advocates using similarly inflammatory and divisive language, it’s time the media and Voice-supporting politicians get serious about this.

Stop pretending the Voice is something it’s not.

Start believing what the key advocates for the Voice are telling you.

How many more key figures who have designed, advised on, and are now campaigning for the Voice have to tell us what they intend to do with the Voice before we believe them?

I think it’s time we simply take them at their word.

This is a massive threat to our system of government.

The Voice will divide us because it is about gaining power and pushing activist priorities and not about helping disadvantaged Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

It’s about separating Aboriginal people out from the rest of Australia – defining us by our race, and making sure every part of our system of government treats us differently because of our race.

It’s a damaging and divisive proposition and thanks to Teela Reid I’m even more determined than ever to defeat it.

Yours for REAL solutions,

Jacinta Nampijinpa Price
Senator for the Northern Territory

Quote:Woke Vision | Pauline Hanson's Please Explain

To most of us, the world is a complex, colourful, generally decent place. A place where people with different opinions and views can disagree but still respect each other.

To the woke mob, the world is a dark and hateful place where everything that isn't black and white is a shade of bigotry and racism.

It's axiomatic that rights must be paired with responsibilities. The Westminster system handles this pretty well at the indivicdlevel eg:

Rights (voting, freedoms, welfare, medical, etc) = responsibilities (obey laws, rules & pay taxes).

HOWEVER we have no way of delivering group rights because we can't and won't enforce collective (group) responsibilities under the westminster system.

The last creeps who tried to enforce collective responsibility were Hitler, Stalin and Pol Pot.

Remember when everyone agreed there were two genders, male and female. Remember when being male and female was a biological reality?
