That is very sad and reflective of the general "me" mentality in Australia. Well done.

There is a difference between being informed and agreeing with something.
To push for a referendum means you have to be ready to accept the outcome either way.
Where are the names of the people this is from ?

If the yes got up then it would be ok to say “Tough titties” to any disappointment from the no side. I am Happy for anyone to change my mind on this"These are the collective insights and views of a group of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leaders, community members and organisations who supported Yes"

Now it is time to move on to the next best option for the advice the voice would have provided.
The voice group should push to continue their free flights with qantas grab some corporate support and fly to those communities in need. Maybe a regional bank in the area to support things.

Obviously the rules of our democracy means tough titties is what the loser gets in any vote.
On disappointed no voters, had yes won, is there actually a real reason most no voters would be genuinely disappointed?
Can't be disappointed if you "don't know so voted no".
Can't be disappointed if you voted based on believing the plethora of lies and misinformation coming from the campaign.
Can't be disappointed if the motive was racist, which plenty were.
That leaves the tiny handful of Aboriginal people that voted no, who might be justified in being disappointed because the "voice is not enough" argument was the only one on the no side that was from an honest place. A flawed argument, against most of the indigneous community, but at least it was not lies and exaggerations.
That argument didn't form part of the main no campaign until they decided to put Lydia on TV with Jacinta which provided some uncomfortable moments between the two.
So yeah, tough titties for the yes voters is the reality, but there is a real, honest reason for them to be disappointed, especially the indigenous ones.

wasn't a fan of scotty from marketing nor tony but compared to john they aren't that bad. everything wrong with this country started under howard.
i think a lot of people did laugh at that, myself including, he could have just moved aside and quietly stepped down and moved away from politics but the stubborn fuck had to go all in.
Too bad he's been pissing it up on the parliamentarian pension.
