Johannes Leak.
And Dutton announces that the Libs will hold a second referendum if they get in next election. These guys just want to lose.
Dutton disappoints (those who had some faith in him).
The cartoon shows the true story.
Have never expected ordinary people to be taken in by the Their vibe/the peculiar claim of a “gracious” offer/the antics of politicians, past and present.
As others have noted, taking more and more is not grace.
Yet no one has pointed this out to the revered Indigenous Minister.
Satisfying to see greedy Alan Joyce feature in the cartoon.
Sleazy, da boy from soshul housing, da slayer of Tories, the man whose never had a real job in his life, was elected PM on a web of lies, dog whistles and gaslighting. It was obvious to many of us from the beginning. But what he had going for him at the beginning on 2022 was a spineless and lying imbecile by the name of Scott Morrison, and a stinking and fetid Liberal government almost a decade old that stood for nothing and stood up to nothing. That, combined with a partisan MSM that refuses to apply any pressure on him and his motley crew means Sleazy has had an easy ride for the last year and a half, and he’s completely swallowed the fawning and adulation. I am quite certain that he and his inner circle really truly thought that the Voice would be a pushover. You see, the left always derail themselves because they overreach, bigtime. I think the plan was Voice, early election and then the republic. And now I’m watching the wheels begin to fall off, in fact it’s looking like a train wreck of monumental proportions, and it’s sweet, so very sweet.
However, if the referendum is gonski, it won’t be thanks to the Liberals. Nope, it’ll be thanks to the Nationals (and particularly Jacinta Price), One Nation, Advance, and ordinary Australian men and women who’ve pushed back on this. It’ll be their victory, not the stupid effing Liberals.
Dutton appears to be taking a victory lap before the result is in the bag.
You couldn’t make this up. Stupid beyond belief. If we are going to have to go through this crap again, why not get it over with and vote yes now?
The measure of how badly the Voice is in a hole, is that Albo wants to change the narrative to be about Scott Morrison again:
Anthony Albanese reveals what he really thinks of Scott Morrison in candid interview with Neil Mitchell.
At least John Farnham and his offspring can bugger off back to blighty if Yes gets up. Most of us don’t have duel citizenship and will be stuck with the consequences.
I love how the Farnham ‘permission’ to use You’re The Voice is touted as significant.
As if he had a choice.
He either OK-ed the request or he would have been black-banned.
I’m pretty sure he doesn’t own the song anyway.
Dutton’s offer to hold another referendum on a different form of recognition looks pretty clever. But I’d give a walkley award for chutzpah to the ABC reporter last night who reported this while sneering that Dutton has offered NO DETAILS about his proposed referendum. And doesn’t he know that referendums are expensive! In the middle of a cost of living crisis!!
On the John F’Arnhem-Land “decision”. From Tim Wheatley, son of Glenn:
From the same article:
The song was written by communists for communists.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You%27re_the_Voice
As if that wasn’t why this whole dumb thing wasn’t named “The Voice” to start with for this exact reason, LOL. It was the marketing strategy from the start.
But “You’re the Voice” was popular back in about 1989. LOL.
Going for the nostalgia angle right?
Let’s reminisce about what else was good in the 80’s? Things like it being a nice white country that produced white people pop-culture like “You’re the Voice”…. Uh-oh.
A cynic might think that the global party really only want ‘recognition of the first people’s’ in the Constitution, as is being done in every other anglo country they’re destroying, and, knowing that referendums in Australia usually fail at the first take, “The Voice” was just an opening move gambit to get people comfortable with this itty, bitty little nice change….that in 30 years will end at the same place.
“Win or lose we’re forever on the right side of history”.
Imagine marinating so deeply in a uni-polar cultural and political hegemony that you can be this delusional and casually self-confident of your place in the world.
A quick look at his Twitter, if that guy named dropped his apparently famous dad “my dad” one more time it’d look like he was living of his dad’s name like some minor aristocratic.
Ray Hadley this morning listed all the ad campaigns the song has been sold to by Wheatley and Farnsey over the years. Anything at all for a dollar.
So the Wheatleys are full of it.
SBS will be unbearable. They’ve been excitedly playing-up the referendum, as though it were a carnival.
With weeks of this monotonous song (yes, John Farnham has many fans who love it) coming to our screens, the television can stay switched off.
According to Wikipedia, the voice was used on the video game Grand Theft Auto for a decade. Very choosy indeed..
In a way that’s quite an appropriate connection now, buccaneer.
Might even have a dual electoral pay-off cuckoo; killing off any last slim chance Albanese’s Voice might have had from here, while improving Coalition electoral appeal among Coalition leaning moderates leading into 2025.
Of course, his alternative was clear to everyone here, whose instincts were to go balls and all 10/10 reactionary rogue-tard against it from the moment Albanese’s Voice palaver was first pitched.
On the other hand, Albosleazy has been very upfront (far from it) about what the Voice really is all about.
Yep, always appeared like a smash and grab to me too..
Putrid Filth Infest Their Australian Parliament
Yep. They want 2 systems.
Yoorrook Justice Commission releases first report from Victoria’s truth telling commission.
I asked Farnham how this came about. His response:
‘They gave me an offer I couldn’t refuse.’
Known as menace.
Prosciutto is a NO.
My 2c worth seeing more today. Is Farnsie even in the decision loop here? Seems the only ones flapping their useless gums here are the children. Worth a thought anyway.
The song was written by Andy Qunta, Keith Reid, Maggie Ryder, and Chris Thompson.
I’m not sure Farnham has any proprietary rights to it at all.
Whether its Farnham’s song or not, whether he is woke or not, he is a writer who is aware of the meaning of idiom, and in this case it is coercion.
The music industry recognizes separate rights in both the song writing and the performance, and they have some “Hollywood Accounting” style formulas to divide up any profits. Most of the well-known artists also have a record label and contracts which usually give the label fairly broad options for re-licensing … this is made more complex when multiple labels are involved and songs have been covered several times over.
Thus … it depends … are they using an actual Farnham recording? Or have they re-licensed the song itself and got someone who sounds similar to record it as a session muso?
Dutton himself has pointed out that the lyrics don’t really play well for the Yes camp, ie “You’re the voice, try and understand it.”
vlad redux….and many others; Megan Davis has told us this song represents ALL Australians.
I won’t bother asking all the rhetorical questions that spring to mind. But, since 99.99% of Aussies know the Referendum Voice is not about all Australians, Megan is seen yet again as a lying scumbag, and the people behind Farnham none-too-bright.
I have no idea how so many people can be such F’Wits as to go along with these putrid Yes machinations. Stupid is as stupid does!
Perhaps The No Voices should bring out “It’s Time To Say No To UN Globalists”.
In any case, Farnham’s song features bagpipes, which are known to be absolute electoral poison. Even worse than banjos.
Working atm but from Michael Smith. Especially the ownership rights of the song if true, see alfredo’s comment:
https://www.michaelsmithnews.com/2023/09/ker-ching-its-not-the-first-time.html
if you are part of the establishment echo chamber you are never confronted with such petty concerns like the incoherence of your argument, and thus debating skills are limited.
Dutton’s referendum II proposal was turned into a winner today as it smoked out a response from Langton at the press club:
From Sky News (H/T Calli @ flash Çat):
– No second referendum.
– No willingness to only have an acknowledgement.
-No desire to work with Libs if this referendum fails.
– No desire to work with Libs anytime (implied).
