    The commie was just playing games with the voters on Saturday

    this is unbelievable !

    In the wake of the Voice referendum defeat, Anthony Albanese will thumb his nose at the will of the Australian public by vowing to press ahead with Part 2 and part 3 of the Uluru Statement - Treaty and Truth (Pay the Rent and Sovereignty).

    State Labor governments where the NO vote was overwhelming including Queensland and South Australia will also press ahead with their own Treaties.

    The arrogance is gob-smacking.

    VOICE REFERENDUM: TRUTH TELLING FOR ALBANESE AS VOTERS DELIVER DEFEAT

    By Geoff Chambers, Chief Political Correspondent and Rosie Lewis, Political Correspondence

    Anthony Albanese will reaffirm Labor’s commitment to advance reconciliation while pursuing treaty and truth-telling and reset the government’s focus on cost-of-living pressures and national security, after his $365m voice referendum was torpedoed by more than 60 per cent of voters.

    The Prime Minister will re-engage with Indigenous leaders following a week of silence on new measures to close the gap after a majority of Australians in every state rejected Labor’s referendum to constitutionally enshrine a voice advisory body to parliament and executive government.

    As Mr Albanese and Yes23 campaigners kept low profiles on Sunday following the heavy defeat, Deputy Prime Minister Richard Marles declared the government remained committed to establishing a Makarrata commission to supervise treaty-making and truth-telling.

    Labor MPs, Yes campaigners and government-appointed constitutional expert group member Greg Craven sheeted blame for the referendum loss on Mr Albanese, Indigenous Australians Minister Linda Burney and Yes23 for failing to provide more detail, appealing too much to inner-city elites and rushing the vote without ample consultation.

    While senior ALP and Liberal strategists believe that political damage inflicted on Mr Albanese and the Labor brand was unlikely to show up immediately, the government is under pressure to focus on priority issues for households and businesses.
    Mr Marles on Sunday ruled out another attempt at constitutional recognition but reaffirmed the government’s commitment to the Uluru Statement from the Heart in full, which asks for voice and a Makarrata commission to oversee treaty and truth.

    The Albanese government, which ahead of last year’s election pledged $27m to establish a Makarrata commission, has already spent $900,000 of the $5.8m set aside in Labor’s first budget for the treaty and truth-telling body.

    Despite voters in Queensland, South Australia and Tasmania delivering No votes of 68.8 per cent, 64.5 per cent and 59.5 per cent, premiers in those states on Sunday vowed to push ahead with state-based treaties and voices to progress reconciliation. At the close of counting on Sunday night, the national vote showed No leading Yes by 60.6 to 39.4 per cent.

    Millions of voters in regional Australia and western Sydney emphatically voted No in key Labor electorates, including seats held by cabinet ministers.
