not if the question is do you want Australia to become a republic? yes / No

it leaves no room for manipulation

Other than the government giving the nice people a type of republic they vehemently oppose, like the one they rejected reviously.

Nah, smart move that one. Grin

I've dealt with that ... try to keep up

we should first have a vote on republic or not, so that the matter is settled with the particular model to be voted upon at a later stage.

There's no need to rush it, tie the referendums in with elections if it means we save money. Decide the one question in conjunction with one election, decide on the model at the next one.

What if there is no acceptable model between the idiots and the government?

The idiots want to elect and the government opposes an elected HOS, what then and in the interim we are living in a sh1t fight.

Nah, also a great idea.

yes

Have a vote every few years or so to see what the nice people want this time?

Or keep voting until you get what you want and then stop.

I suggest it will be the latter

I'm rather fond of democracy ... or are you against a re-vote because you got what you wanted?

Cheesy

Australia WILL become a Republic, sooner or later. The Baby Boomers (those who mostly do not want to change the "system") are getting older and dying off.

The younger generations eligible to vote at 18 will soon be deciding what happens and I doubt they are too attached to the Monarchy, the Flag or the Anthem.

These are the kids who have been sitting around "texting" all and sundry on their "phone". I doubt they know who the current Prime Minister is. I am talking kids at High School (age 12 - 16), little kids (5-10) can beat most adults on the computer but they still haven't learned how to tie their own shoe laces.

Aren't you glad that we don't live forever in a vegistated state to watch all this?

You have a big day haven't you. You have been posting rubbish, and that is a great example.

Who is it that can activate a referendum Mr Smith? Is is the Government, and is it not the Government which decides the question in any Referendum.

Psssst......the answers are, respectively.....'the Government, and.......'Yes.'
