My Exclusive Interview with the 'Yes' Campaign

All your questions answered

Me: Isn’t the Indigenous Voice to Parliament racist?

You: Here’s Shaquille O'Neal

Me: But seriously, I don’t understand how giving a small group of people extra powers in the constitution because of their skin colour is not racist.

You: Here’s the PM and the Teals posing for photos with “Yes” written on their hands

Me: Ok. So you’re ignoring my point about inserting race into the constitution. Tell me this then. How will members of the Voice be appointed? I mean, won’t we just end up with a bunch of Indigenous elites sitting in Canberra on the taxpayer teat?

You: Here’s Paul Kelly

Me: You’re not answering my questions.

You: Here’s Tom Gleeson

Me: Seriously? Tom Gleeson?

You: Here’s a Qantas planes with ‘Yes’ painted on the tail

Me: What will the Voice cost tax payers annually?

You: Here’s Cathy Freeman

Me: How will the Voice make a difference when $30 billion a year to Indigenous organisations hasn’t?

You: Here’s Michael Long walking from Melbourne to Canberra

Me: Isn’t the Voice just a first step to treaty?

You: Here’s Jonathan Thurston

Me: Constitutional amendments become lawyers’ picnics. Won’t the Voice end up with a whole lot of government decisions being challenged in the High Court?

You: Here’s Adam Goodes

Me: Seriously. What happens if the Voice is consistently ignored by the public service? The result is never-ending legal challenges isn’t it?

You: Here’s Cate Blanchett

Me: Will the Treasurer be expected to brief the Voice on what’s included in an upcoming budget?

You: Here’s Evonne Goolagong-Cawley. And Ash Barty

Me: It seems like you’re relying entirely on emotion and celebrity endorsements to sell this thing.

You: Here’s John Farnham

Me: It’ll take more to convince me to change the constitution than a John Farnham song

You: Here’s MC Hammer
