With a referendum on the Voice to Parliament approaching in the second half of the year, there's one myth about the proposed body which refuses to die, despite repeated debunking.
It’s not about inequality. The problem is that currently as it stands there is no special status in the constitution for the voice of the traditional owners of a land on which sovereignty was never ceded. It’s a permanent problem that the voice will address.

No one should get a “special status” based on race, ever, for any reason.
I agree 100%
The voice to parliament isn’t a privilege attributed to a race, it’s a privilege for the traditional owners of the land.
