I voted No because Albo said “just vote Yes and we’ll figure out the rest later”. Also we currently have 109 federal government departments dealing with indigenous affairs and nothing changes. Where is the money going ? Senator Price asked that question after the voice defeat and got shouted down.

[restfulplace]

We voted No to hate, division, lies.

One country.
One set of laws.
Treat all Citizens equally.

[EricaBassi]

Because we didn't know what we were saying yes to. Exactly. And we have a healthy mistrust of the government.

[christopherallan]

Warren Mundine what an amazing individual he copped a lot of heat and backlash from the yes campaigners and he stood his ground.
This is what makes a great Australian!
It certainly gives me hope for Australia when we still have people like this.

[donaldkeith]

No to racism.
No to segregation.
No to identity politics.
No to division in Australia.

[drevil]

Warren Mundine is living proof that the voice is not needed. He is an excellent role model and a genuine voice for First Nations people! Go Warren!

[LL-wcwn]

Why did we vote no? Australians are tired of the racism.

[larry]

Simply ... Albo said there was ONE page referring to the Referendum which was incorrect as there was 24 pages. Well, done Warren and Jacinta.

[stephent]

The majority of Australians didn't want more division. Everyone knew it would be mismanaged and of no benefit to the people it was said it would help. The gaslighting was not tolerated by the general public who are not to be insulted.

[MP-yetv]

they underestimated the intelligence of those who voted no. I did loads of research and voted against separatism, and for funding based on need, not identity. It’s so insulting that the ‘no vote’ was dismissed and blamed on r’cism and misinformation!!

[pablovalentine]

As a Aboriginal myself i voted no because in my opinion we all need to be one people you can not have division because it goes against everything Aboriginals have fought for for 200 years .

[garrymoore]

We voted no because we're not as stupid as our current government.

[rayweh-bfa]

Warren I am proud of you Australian hero

[johnfranke]

Great to see you still fighting Warren, keep up the good work

[namogel]

We voted NO to a divided nation and YES to one people, one country.

[magiciansway]

Because the last thing we needed was another Aboriginal advocacy agency with even more power than those already existing. Because it WOULD not have done ANYTHING to improve the lot of the majority of aboriginal people - just those who had the power in it who would line their own pockets like those in ASIC

[trudiswanson]

Thankyou Warren, God bless you. I hope your voice is heard more. 🙏

[PhilipRanson-dt]

A very likeable man who puts his thoughts eloquently and without malice, a great Australian.

[GusGusto]

Nothing will help the Aboriginals until the Aboriginals decide to help themselves! As always they want everything handed to them with no effort from themselves, if you want to get ahead be prepared to do it yourself, well said Warren.

[John-pig]

Price and Mundine are legends.
They were pivotal in pointing out the major flaws to the Voice.
They saved Australia from divisiveness, and should get an OAM.
