Bob Katter Says If You Want His Opinion On An Indigenous Voice, Well The Fact Of The Matter Is That It’s Not Likely We’ll Ever See Anything Quite Like Christine Anu Ever Again I Mean Wasn’t She Just Spectacular? And Look I Know That’s A Pretty Crowded Field, Namely The Likes Of Lionel Rose, Jessica Mauboy, Seaman Dan, Shakaya And Of Course Dan Sultan But If I’m Honest There Was Just Something So Electrifying About That Torres Strait Islander Girl On Stage At The 2000 Olympics Closing Ceremony Belting Out ‘My Island Home’ It Really Was Just The Right Time, Right Place And There Was A Static Atmosphere Off The Back Off Her Fellow North Queensland Sister Cathy Freeman Winning Gold With Both Flags Over Her Shoulders Look It Was 22 Years Ago And I Remember It Like It Was Yesterday, I Was Lucky Enough To Be There In Homebush Watching Actually, It Was A Moment So Special That I Momentarily Forgot Those Bastards From The IOC Had Sat Me Next To That Treasonous Free-Marketeer Paul Keating Who Most Probably Thought The Song Was Dedicated To Him Because He Visited Redfern Once And No I Didn’t Come Down In The Last Shower I Am Well Aware That Christine’s ARIA-Nominated 1995 Single Was Actually A Cover Of The Warumpi Band But Ya See, And Not Many People Know This, She Actually Started Her Career As A Back Up Singer For Neil Murray, Who Was A White Boy That Co-Wrote That Song With His Black Brothers From The Top End, And That’s What Makes This Indigenous Voice So Special Because This Is What’s It’s All About At The End Of The Day, Getting To Blackfellas Share Knowledge And Insights With Whitefellas, And Then Creating A System Where We Can Pass It On To The Next Generation Of All Colours, Because That’s Where The Magic Happens, That’s When We See Results And That’s When We Fill Stadiums Of Crying Patriots Who Are Equipped To Interrogate Our Complicated History And Heal As One… But As For Albanese’s Referendum, I’m Not Sure How I’ll Be Voting Yet

Katter Says He Is Willing To Back An Indigenous Voice To Parliament But It Would Make More Sense To Have A Black Upper House And A Black Lower House That Operates Within The Current Federal System, We Should Let The Murris And The Torres Strait Islanders Effectively Run A Black Senate Just To Double Check Everything The Southern Mob Puts Forward, Because If I’m Honest, And My Opinions Might Be Heavily Influenced By Rugby League, But Nevertheless, There’s Something To Be Said About The Solutions-Based Approach We See In Queensland Politics, Black And White, And Yes, I’m Well Aware That Our First Nations Brother-Cousins Don’t Necessarily Acknowledge State Borders, And Neither Do I, Really, As Far As I’m Concerned Anywhere South Of Bundaberg Is A Suburb Of Sydney, And The Only Border I’m Ready To Acknowledge Is The Brisbane Line, Which Was By Far The Most Cowardly Defence Proposal In The History Of Modern Military Strategy, Formulated By Those Bastards In Canberra During World War II To Concede The Northern Portion Of The Australian Continent To The Japanese So They Could Prioritise The Blue-Blooded Farming Plains Of New South Wales And Those Victorian One-Horse Brothel Towns That Ran Out Of Gold When Ned Kelly Was In Nappies, I’m Not Here Trying To Complicate Things, But It’s Worth Remembering That They Blew Up Our Inland Bridges And Major Ports And Left Us For Dead In The Face Of An Aggressive Foreign Army Chockablock With Soldiers Willing To Literally Fly Their Fighter Planes Into Defence Targets For Love Of Empire, It Makes Me Sick To Think About That Disgraceful Chapter In Our Country’s History, And This Complacency, Which Borders On Treason, Has Not Been Forgotten, Queenslanders, Black And White, Harbour A Deep Distrust For The Southern Elite To This Very Day, Mind You, The Ngarrindjeri Mob Down There On The Lower Murray River, I Don’t Mind The Cut Of Their Jib, I Spose Maybe We Can Have Them Operating Some Sort Of A Black Cross Bench, Like The Black Teals, Or The Black Katters, That’s Not A Bad Idea At All, I Mean, Really, What I’m Putting Forward Here, It’s Quite Simple When You Think About It
