Whether you’ve dedicated decades or minutes to the simple question being posed today, this referendum is a precious opportunity to move closer to becoming one country. Voting YES will enable much needed improvements in health, education and justice outcomes for Indigenous people.

How you vote is totally up to you but we’ve decided to run a radio advertising campaign urging people not to fall for all the bullshit that’s being thrown around by the NO campaign. Just don’t let anyone treat you like a mug - if you don’t know, find out! yes23.com.au/vote_yes

Amazon invited some parliamentarians who have raised concerns about Amazon to visit their site in Sydney. The parliamentarians wanted @SDAunion the local reps for Amazon workers to come too. Parliamentarians welcome…unions not #makeamazonpay

Former Coalition minister for Indigenous Australians Ken Wyatt rejects Peter Dutton’s claims about the Voice being a “Canberra Voice”
“that's far from the truth… it's not a Canberra Voice. It is not elites. It is people from the grassroots”

We’re investing in our national museums, archives and galleries.
After a decade of neglect under the Liberals, we’re stepping in to help because cultural institutions belong to all Australians.
