The result isn't being covered very well internationally, looking at the post on lemmy.world, I wonder what ramifications this will have in the pacific

I'll pin this thread for discussing the referendum, the megathread will be closed in a minute

Albo’s looking like a one-term prime minister at the moment.

It's interesting, I don't know if Dutton will be able to win back the moderate seats they lost at the last election

The swinging seats were largely the apolitical suburbs, who aren’t idealistic lefties but aren’t rusted-on megachurch culture-warriors either. They bend with the wind. Morrison was on the nose, so they swung to Labor; whether they stay with Labor or conclude, after surveying the famously impartial media, that we need a change is an open question.

Hey, just a little nudge, if you’re keen to chat about the Voice to Parliament, we’ve got this corker of a megathread where we can all have a good chinwag in one spot. But if you’re not up for that, no worries, it’s business as usual. Gotta keep things fair dinkum!

Bad policy sold badly.

If they cannot açcept that, the 'no' campaign will appear more successful than they were, and will play against labour in the election. Is it really racist to criticise the 'yes' campaign?

I don't think so. Labor really shat the bed here IMO.
