So what is the point of a referendum?
Of the 44 referendums only 8 have carried a yes for change which in my mind where much more important to a voice to parliament.i.e. conscription etc
We have 3% asking for a special voice in which legislation will be written later on a principle which does not represent democracy.
What could go wrong with that????
Marcia Langton has already stated its has to be more than an advisory body to the executive, it has to have teeth!

''So what is the point of a referendum?''

well, one point is that it got Australia talking

it's talking a lot more than it would if it were just legislated --------------- I would have thought that's got to be a good thing
