The following comment was posted this morning over at Jo Nova's. It is self-explanatory. You have been warned. "The Voice referendum has stuff all to do with Aboriginals and everything to do with transferring the power to alter the Constitution away from the Australian people and giving it to the Executive Government – that is, the PM and Cabinet, aka “The national Cabinet” of recent years.
Trouble is, most people, including most here, haven’t ever even skim read the Constitution, let alone understand it. The parody planned for October doesn’t even legally qualify as a referendum, yet the only discussion is whether to vote Yes or No for this farce."Reference: - joannenova.com.au/2023/04/saturday-3/#comment-2663060

I am sorry to inform this commenter but they threw the constitution to the curb even before 2020 but definitely then. Seems to be under the delusions of denialists.

Struth,
It is one thing for govt to quietly sneak around the Constitution, or sidestep it, or even sometimes ignore it and hope nobody notices. Successive Australian govts have been doing that since 1901. It is quite another thing for a tiny section of govt - the Cabinet - to trick the people into giving them the lawful power to legally alter the country's Constitution any time, on a whim, without even any need to even get it passed Parliament, let alone the people.
Couple that to the fact that, in 2021 a former PM took it upon himself to grant himself all the powers of the Cabinet, with the full "lawful" approval of the Governor General, and we are one step away from Germany in 1933, without even the need for a Reichstag fire, to "legally" install a one man, omnipotent Dictator with the "lawful" power of life and death over the rest of us.
If you can't see the difference then there's not much point in me explaining the matter in any further detail to you.

Um, we were imprisoned by Scott Morrison and the tyranny started. All of it was unconstitutional. Of all people I would not have expected you to be in denial, MV. If you call what has happened over the last three years "sneaking around the constitution" there's not much point in me explaining the matter in any further detail to you.

Fair enough, Struth.
We only have ten months to go, then we shall see. Who knows, even you might be able to "spot the difference" once it has happened.

Don't be a smart arse. You're full of resentment at not having every word you utter taken as gospel. STFU for a second and think about what you said. You call the last three years "sneaking around the constitution"?
You may as well be on their side. One of the stupidest things you've ever said. I gave you more credit but it seems a little denialism is to be found in you as well. now.
You may like to come here and "warn us all" with your superior and insider knowledge (as you see it)
But warning us after the fact, is rediculous in the extreme and shows a complete lack of political nous.
