Maybe they're fighting climate change one downvote at a time

The government could do many things, but it's not the question being asked by the constitutional amendment. It's not hard to find the design principles for the voice, something I suspect people wouldn't read even if this wasn't going to referendum.

Wanting to see something for two years first is kind of an excuse to never do anything. It's also not really a good argument for voting no, because the idea is that the "shape" of the voice can be changed if it isn't working. What people are voting on is the concept.

I dunno what else to tell you, that's the proposal and that's where we are. If people are voting no because lack of details there's not much to do to convince them. The government is hardly going to release more details now.

The point of there not being an extremely precise definition of the voice in the constitution is that it can be changed if it's not working. Most parts of the constitution are like this afaik.

What you are being asked is if you support putting a passage in the constitution that would ensure a body with the express purpose of indigenous representation exists.

The conservatives have been getting worse over the past say, 10 years, Trump kind of accelerated things and that style of "who cares what the truth is" was exported from the US.

The right wing in general was always going to end up being like this though.

Cost is often factored in when it comes to optimising fusion power plant design so potentially, plus other benefits of fusion. Either way, barring a breakthrough the closest power barring breakthroughs is probably at best 2040 imo. Even with all the new startups.

I think of it less as a question and more of an admission

They could have avoided a chunk of this by passing Zali stegalls bill on truth in advertising, but I guess abandoning your cornerstone policy on reconciliation is a small price to pay for being able to lie at the next election.

Global warming is a hoax, the real threat is global eucalypting

I guess the greens decided they couldn't get anything more out of Labor.

Yes but a contained nightmare.

The article doesn't refer to violent offenders? Is this in the actual report from the truth telling commission?

What's your point here? The article you linked relates to a murder in Qld and seems to have nothing to do with the report from truth telling commission.
