The govt collects more money from HECS than it does from the PRRT. Australians are missing out on revenue for public services while fossil fuel companies make record profits. We need to increase the PRRT #auspol ADD YOUR NAME to the petition: > nb.australiainstitute.org.au/increase_the_p…

@TomRed43 @GSmithWA Of course a Yes vote should improve the children’s futures. They have the most to gain.

@GSmithWA Is that better or worse than stealing children from their families? I get so confused with comparative morality.

The frenzied "debate" about the Voice is only serving to confuse everybody. In practical terms the Voice will be able to express its opinion on just about any public policy issue, because every one of them, one way or the other, impacts on indigenous Australians. So yes the Voice could offer its advice to the Reserve Bank. So what? It could offer advice to the Treasurer on the technical drafting of the latest Tax Laws Amendment Bill too. So what? In each case it wouldn't be a great use of time because absent a particular expertise in monetary policy or tax law, the Voice's views would not carry a lot of weight. Where they will carry weight, and should, is on matters directly or particularly relating to indigenous Australians and so it is natural that the Voice will concentrate its attention on issues where its views will be most influential. As to Australia Day - seriously? Of course the Voice will have a view on Australia Day and it would be very surprising if its view was not to move the date.

@LaurieOakes I’ve been following the story of Tom Cole, my mother’s cousin. It is the 100th anniversary soon of his arrival in Brisbane on 11th October 1923. Tom would have voted YES as he had great respect for First Nations people.

This is how the majority of Australians view the negative reaction from some to the $ 3 million super policy.

An Albanese Labor Government will deliver a better future for all Australians, but Labor needs our help to win the next election. I’ve donated to fund their campaign. Will you help too? alp.org.au/donate #auspol

I guess that’s why we pay such large amounts in rates and Mr Schrinner gets paid a large amount. To do his job in times like this.
