Loud and Clear — The Tide Turns Against the Australian Elites

14 October 2023 may go down in history as the day when the ordinary Australians turned the tables against the elite class who had neglected and even abused them. The referendum on ‘The Voice’ that claimed to help in the process of reconciliation with Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders was soundly rejected.
