I am really disappointed about the spate of letters you publish pushing the Yes campaign.
The number of times I see or hear the 65,000 years argument and we owe the First Nations people a Voice is absurd.
What do all the hundreds of First Nations groups already established and paid for by the taxpayer do?
Is the youth crime rate related to the lack of respect for the law?
Are the health issues of Aborigines related to the lack of personal hygiene?
Young people seem to think we owe First Nations people a Voice.
But why?
They already have lots of advocates pushing their agendas.
Why has all the money that has been spent to date on First Nations people been so ineffective?
Nobody ever addresses that critical issue.
Why does the current Federal Government need a need a new Voice lobby group?
Have they not listened to them since they have been in office?
First Nations people have been receiving and continue to receive many financial benefits, but it seems it is never enough.
They represent five per cent of our population but get a disproportionate amount of attention and funds.
The Voice push is divisive and totally unnecessary.
And I resent the amount of taxpayer funds being spent by the Federal Government pushing the Yes agenda.
