    Who will this person be, claiming to represent the interest of 200 distinct language groups? What laws will be made?

    The person you’re talking to thinks those details are irrelevant and we should have voted yes in order to find out. For crying out loud, it’s not even in the constitutional amendment that there needs to be an indigenous person on the Voice lol.

      If a community feels their needs will be best represented by a non indigenous person why not let them be elected? It’s probably unlikely but seems like an odd restriction.

        They also didn’t tell us how the people would be selected btw. They weren’t necessarily elected, which is yet another problem people had with it. It would no doubt have just been more “jobs for the boys”.
