I think you're bang on.

And SA has just established one. There might be more around the place too.

Victoria has had a First Peoples' Assembly since 2019. This is largely identical in role and function to what the federal Voice would be, but it is tasked with representing its views at a state level.

Sadly, while I try to hold on to a bit of hope, it is almost certain Victoria will not be voting Yes today.

Make it make sense.

The result should come in very quickly because the counting process is very simple.

Compulsory identification and warrantless search on all protestors is reasonable?

Why don't we give that power to police 24/7?

[–] Pilk@aussie.zone 5 points 2 years ago

The right to protest should be protected. No matter what. The police want to call this particular protest "illegal", and enacting these powers to search will have a chilling effect. The Human Rights Law Centre has condemned the NSW police minister and police for this.

The protest organisers are seeking to work with police on their concerns. Nobody should be subject to arbitrary search and compulsory identification simply for exercising their right to freely assemble.

"Designated areas" in Victoria should also be criticised, but teenagers don't have a human right to carry a flick knife.

Oh, I misread your post. Sorry. I'm not to sure, it does seem quite a lot in that case.

It costs $150ish to list a property on a real estate website, and they might do one or two. It seems proportionate to me.

What change could be made to the question before us that would likely shift your "yeah, nah" to a "yes"?
