Linda Burney refuses to debate Jacinta Price after not answering questions ‘time and time again’

[@brentonmoss2158]

When you have a govt that refuses to answer basic questions, then you no longer have a democratic representative govt. This govt is a disgrace.

[@bradyowe8236]

Burney can’t debate she can barely string 3 words together

[@bushranger2]

Burney has really helped the "No"campaign. She's been great.

[@Design_no]

What an embarrassment Burney is.

[@TheWaynos73]

The whole Labor cabinet

[@andrewdoyle1948]

They are all clown's

[@numbat0072]

yep also pampered . she is an obvious "token" as there is no way she'd be in the lap of luxury on her own (ahem) "intellect" . her supporters are now saying she is being bullied (really just scrutinised) . they also accuse any1 who disagrees with the YES vote as being racist . this is any easy way of shutting down the debate instantly as the accused can never recover ( like the old saying-" if U throw enough mud some sticks")

[@lydia3098]

"Truth telling" needs to start with the prime minister!!

[@Metamorphica2]

And the rest of the liars

[@iansings7428]

Linda showing her true courage in not answering or having debate. Thank you Jacinta.

[@radambrose7571]

She would be incapable of debating a 5 year old on the alphabet. Jacinta Price would reduce her to slobbering pulp.

[@janetwilkins5460]

Because she knows Jacinta would win the debate

[@TheWaynos73]

She knows Jacinta will have her job come election day.

[@ch33psk8]

Just about says it all. More integrity to Bess, Jacinta and family.

[@jackturpin7828]

The principal architects and beneficiaries of the Aboriginal Industry is and always has been the ALP. They have created legions of bureaucrats whose support can be counted on in maintaining the industry with all the division and race-baiting that goes with it. They have no interest in closing the gap for 20% of the Aboriginal population as it would put them out of their lucrative jobs.

[@mv7405]

Burney thought she could just cruise her way through parliament airy fairy but it’s clear she hasn’t got a clue

[@ericrochester8835]

This sneaky sneaky voice....

[@waynekilgour393]

In NZ the mountains around Auckland have been gifted our indigenous people. They are now cutting down 100 year old trees because they were planted by colonialists. I wonder what they will be cutting next?

[@awc900]

Jacinta Price debating Linda Burney would be like RFK jnr. debating Joe Biden. In both cases it would be like lambs to the slaughter and result in Burney and old Joe being roasted on a spit!

[@Metamorphica2]

Burney refuses to debate with Jacinta Price because she's incapable! Her refusal speaks volumes!

[@wayneanonymous7660]

Burney has convinced and campaigned me for my NO vote

[@captmisha]

Why dont they talk about the NIAA, the National Indigenous Australian Agency!!?? at $4bill dollars a year of taxpayer money. This dept, is in ACT and has 1,300 employees. it IS the voice, in place and abusing YOUR money!!!!

[@jayhanrahan7518]

Answer the question Linda.....you are doing a disservice to your people by being so elusive time and time again. Same goes for Mr ALBANESE

[@oldman2800]

Jacinta for PM

[@buildmotosykletist1987]

The Speaker should direct her to answer the question but this is "Labor", no "truth telling" in their answers.

[@day1678]

If two people of the same race are not able to reach a compromise to debate their views - well, with the hundreds of different Aboriginal tribes and different languages, how the hell can they manage to reach any compromise or decision making. It's madness.

I doubt Burney has much aboriginal in her ..spray tan mostly

Doesn't want to debate it ? What a startling surprise. It'll demonstrate the incompetence of the whole thing - but in more detail

[@stancraigie601]

Albo's nothing but a student activist smartarse. Has LB always just woken up?

[@manoffaithministry]

Burney cannot string a few words together as truth. But that is a trait of most of ALP.

[@sophie-963]

We already live in peace, what the heck is Burney talking about?

[@davannaleah]

Like the insurance salesman trying to sell you a policy but unable to tell you what it covers.

[@jeanettewellman9398]

THIS PM NEEDS TO START TELLING US THE TRUTH and nothing but the TRUTH VOTE NO Australian's 💞💓

[@normalguy7898]

Its the same tactic as sayinf "its just a midnight oil tshirt". The tshirt advocates for treaty and its what he was wearing. He is so deceptive. Thank god this is coming out before the official campaign is launched.

[@fainadobrenko6483]

I know this is an easy mistake to make, but you've got to stop calling Burney a Mister.

[@rogertobison5508]

She's not "refusing" to debate, she's just slammed that many goons that she actually has no idea what the heck is going on.

[@davidcrabb5794]

Burney and albo don’t understand the voice let alone expect us too. Burney couldn’t debate a 5 year old and win.

[@TheBillABCTV]

Vote NO.

[@fringedweller5425]

Makarrata is a nice word for payback. It usually involves spearing the defeated in the leg and thereby taking away his ability to fight and hunt. He is effectively reduced to subservience.

[@andrewdoyle1948]

Also the meaning for Treaty..

[@fringedweller5425]

@@andrewdoyle1948 Not traditionally. Only since 1979. That was when the National Aboriginal Conference recommended a Treaty of Commitment be entered into and the selected the term Makarrata to describe the process... It should be acknowledged that before colonization the aboriginals had no concept of treaty, only revenge and punishment.

[@MrAtlas40]

Look at the faces on Marles and Burke while Burney is giving her non answer. They can't believe her performance either.

[@TheWaynos73]

The collective face palm 🤦‍♂️

[@sirstiffpilchard]

In all democracies the rule of MAJORITY rule applies. The Indigenous so called First Nations are about 3.6% which is a definite minority. The majority rule and that's it

[@fringedweller5425]

Then the majority need to stand up and defend themselves

What an embarrassment...

I was on the Monash Uni ALP committee back in the late 1970's...as was Peter Costello funnily enough, and Andrew Kroger. But unlike Albo, I got older and wiser as the post uni years unfolded

Isn't this whole Voice about ancient history from another time? Why does he dismiss his own as irrelevant to today?

[@SF-pq3sq]

Jacinta Price is the most grounded and reasonable representative of the Ausalia indiginous community and a credit to our country in Whole👍🇦🇺

[@timwilson4684]

Why does Anthony Albanese want to hide from his frequent pro voice comments from the past - because they are damaging to his cause. Why does Linda Burney read what is put in front of her and why does she refuse to debate Jacinta Price. Speaking her mind and debating is damaging to the cause. Dean Parkin is encouraging all yes supporters to try and convert two other people to his cause. I have many discussions about the voice with my family and friends and I don't have to convert anyone - they have made up their own minds to vote NO. People should be allowed to decide for themselves and not be bullied or have their arms twisted up behind their backs. My cause is for continued equality , for freedom to speak without attack from those who disagree , the rights of each individual being upheld , to prevent racism , to keep Australia growing and not being pulled down by fanatics. We must learn from New Zealand and not go down a similar path - vote no to retain equal rights for all Australians.😊

[@stevewiles7132]

Answer the question or stand down.

[@MBKMA69]

I worked and lived in the NT for years. All the Indigenous affairs and associated department public servants were ALL on 6 figure salaries. ALL managers and above salaries were in the high $200,000’s and higher. Not too mention the free housing, free business and personal use 4x4 Toyota vehicles, remote area tax breaks.The perks were generous, normalised and expected. And the outcomes on the ground for remote communities? ZERO!!!!! Education, health, CDP Employment Programs would be started, then suspiciously, funding would be withdrawn. Then new programs initiated, then wound up 6 months later. All I witnessed was a revolving door of bureaucratic mismanagement that caused false hopes, disillusionment and misery in the communities. Yet the bumbling, bungling public servants ALL got their exorbitant salaries, perks and pensions, whilst the Indigenous people got SWEET FA....... and circa 2023, from NT contacts that still remain in touch, the circus of Government smoke n mirrors still bumbles along as it has always done, and Indigenous people still get played in the illusion of making things better for their REAL LIFE third world conditions. The VOICE???? MORE bureaucratic mumbo jumbo that self promotes a minority of urban kooris on top shelf Government salaries that AGAIN does NOTHING for the actual REAL PLIGHT of Australian Indigenous peoples collectively. You know why Albo or Burney can’t give details????? Because there is none......... there isn’t a public servant intelligent enough to think through one basic program that could produce basic outcomes. Besides, as long as the merry go round of failed programs continue, the public servants get to keep their jobs, salaries and perks whilst the cultural genocide on the ground in the communities continues unabated.

[@reneperin8742]

Could Linda Burney be Elmer Fudd reincarnated.

[@kenrasmussen4270]

she always sounds like she's drunk.

[@John-kv7jo]

A treaty be definition is an agreement between two nations. What the proponents of the yes campaign want is to recognize the Aboriginal people as a distinct people and nation from the rest of Australia giving them more benefits and a claim on all land.

[@stevewiles7132]

Where does Albo think he would be living if the Brits had not turned up? Would he be a nations Prime minister? Would he even have been born?

[@denisewilliams8609]

I did read the Uluru statement. The voice vote is the red Herron, the real Makarrata statement, is a treaty with every state of Australia and the ingenious people. The Premier's of our states are in consultation now, reparations, some states are already doing it, a treaty must be signed before the referendum. In the Uluru Statement it says every state must agreeI. The federal gov will provide the place, the legal means and the support, by giving the indigenous the seats in parliment, to implement the next phase. If it is true, Who gives the states that right?, is it a conspiracy or fact. Think about it

[@joycelynbennetts]
