Political careers depend on
1News, as part of their finance debate between Grant Robertson and Nicola Willis, polled people to seek their opinions on paying for poverty reduction and climate change.

When challenged on why the Albanese government didn’t simply legislate an “Indigenous Voice” body, the answer is always, “So that it couldn’t be disbanded in the future, like ATSIC”. In the first place, this contradicts the Yes campaign’s repeated claim that it’s “disinformation” that, once in
