I paid $3.50, but got free onions. Interested to hear what others paid.

    Is the referendum literally just to ask whether the constitution should recognise the First Peoples of Australia?

    It was actually about whether the constitution should be changed to say there shall be a body called the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice, and that this body “may make representations to the Parliament and the Executive Government of the Commonwealth on matters relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples”. Purely symbolic recognition would have had a much better chance of getting in IMO.
