This isn’t a new theory at all, this was first proposed not long after the BBT was.

It’s a good thing the UK has never fobbed criminals off on Australia. Wait a minute…

Citizenship is cheap as chips, my partner went through the process in a matter of months once she had met the requirements.

It was the visas that were expensive especially after the Liberals jacked up the price for a partnership visa.

50 hour play time is kinda the minimum I would expect from a title like this.

No one should get a “special status” based on race, ever, for any reason.

True but then it becomes a logistics and organisation problem for a fairly meaningless photo op and Russia aren’t doing well with either of those things.

A lot of these drone losses will be little more than shrapnel strewn across the battlefield. Not much to show off.

I agree, there's nothing stopping Labor from Legislating the Voice now and then asking for a referendum to make it permanent, it would lack some of the Consitutional power in the interim but would be a far fairer method of going about it.

Your first sentence is a tautology because that’s what has been proposed, that isn’t in question at all.

“ It’s really all about having the best information available to parliament when needed so good legislation and informed debates can be had.”

Nothing I’ve seen about the structure of the proposed Voice guarantees that the advice will be listened to, acted on or fact based.

What I would like to see is a meritocratic process for membership to the Voice, a term limit on its establishment and actual power in government.

Why implement a permanent solution to a temporary problem of inequity?

Surely the inequity can be dealt with and then the need for special representation will cease to exist?

I seriously don’t understand why this needs to be in the Constitution. It is too permanent and removing it later, when its original purpose no longer applies, will be a costly and ugly argument.

Gothic 3 was so broken it was impossible to get it to even run on my PC.

It took me 8 years but I finally got a refund when the Australian Consumer Commission won against Valve over their anti-consumer practices.
