Day 31 cont ⚫️🟡🔴

“The #Coalition has been desperate to talk about #TheVoice, and it's little wonder why — the #referendum not only marked a devastating result for many #FirstNations people but also a turning point in the government's fortunes.

The Coalition's numbers started to surge in the #polls, and now that those numbers have fallen behind #Labor, it's been searching for the way back.”

The public denigration of Australia’s first nations people by the LNP and its followers makes me physically sick.

Day 27 cont ⚫️🟡🔴 Colours 🇦🇺

“#PeterDutton 🥔🤓 (#LNP, #Liberal, #Coalition, #Nationals) says he wants welcome to country ceremonies respected even as he reaffirms his push to unite #Australians under “one flag”.

🥔🤓 made the comments after disruptions at #AnzacDay services and the sudden cancellation of a welcome to country ceremony at a major #NRL match in #Melbourne.

The #MelbourneStorm is facing criticism after it informed #Wurundjeri elder #AuntyJoyMurphyWandin she was no longer needed to perform the welcome to country ceremony at the club’s annual #AnzacDay clash at #AAMI Park against South Sydney on Friday night.”

Across the street at the #MCG the welcome ceremony was performed for the #AFL ANZAC clash with Essendon verses Collingwood.

Day 26 cont 🚫⚫️🟡🔴

“Nationals leader #DavidLittleproud says one of his “proudest” moments of his #leadership has been to oppose #TheVoice to # parliament.

Speaking to the #NationalPressClub, Littleproud says it wasn’t a decision that was made quickly by his party room.

Within our party room, in a #respectful way we undertook a #committee within our party room to listen [to the] yes and no case, to understand what the machinery would look like, what it would mean for us who represent some of the most #disadvantaged #Indigenous #Australians in remote areas.
Littleproud says the voice would have repeated “mistakes of the past” and was not the way to empower local communities.”

A reminder Littleproud has no tertiary #education, a rarity in leadership teams in #Labor, #LNP, #Greens and #Independents.

I've been enjoying this since it aired. It's weirdly wonderful. Everything about it; the song choice, singer pairing, styling and the way they chose to present it. Two very different people make music magic. 🔥🎵🎶
