this is why is was sensible of Albanese to not fund either side of the voice debate. to remove politics from the discussion.
no doubt Dutton sees this as unfair because he can't then say that the Labs provided and unfair amount to the. yes vote. ... tooo bad Dutto
he's been baiting Albanese from the start. disgraceful performance.
as for welcome to country, I don't know much about flying these days as I'm simply not up to it anymore. those balmy idyllic waters of Vanuatu are forbidden me these days...... but bon voyage to you gm.... may you enjoy those turquoise waters and friendly smiles while you can.
you paint a lovely picture of your idyll.... I'm not envious but you stir my nostalgia.
but I see the routine welcome as paying respect to the first people of this land. it does bother me that its so damn formulaic, which makes it like singing God Save the Queen, but there it is. its not a problem for me. I understand why some feel wretched by it being repeated, particularly if one denies the harm done to these people over the centuries..... even up to the last decade.
as for AJ(erk), yes he knows well how to play the victim and to seek for his rent.
