I shouldn’t be surprised by the amount of personal abuse being thrown at those of us who support the Yes Vote, but I am. Racist, ableist, body-shaming…all of it. Just for supporting a voice. Perhaps it’s happening on both sides.
It’s not gonna stop me though.
Wouldn’t it be fun to have a tiktok dance for the Voice? I would totally dance but my choreography sucks! Anyone? #VoteYes23 – at Adelaide, South Australia

I was lucky enough to be in the room where this video was launched tonight, alongside so many proud Indigenous Australians. I wanna do what I can to amplify their voice, and give them a voice to Parliament. #HistoryIsCalling #VoteYes
OUR NEW AD IS LIVE!
You’re the Voice that will make history.
On 14 October, we know we all can stand together with the power to be powerful.
#HistoryIsCalling, so #VoteYes. Are you in? John Farnham is.

This ad makes me so emotional, watching it with tears streaming down my face - yes, yes, yes, to move our nation, unite our nation. It makes me feel Australian, connected as Australian, so proudly, for the first time in years #voteyes

The new Yes ad featuring John Farnham’s iconic “You’re the Voice” is an absolute corker.
I cannot wait to vote YES and be on the right side of history.
History is calling us again and giving us a chance to do what is right once more
Let’s seize it!

This opportunity is once in generations.
We are at a fork in the road.
Choose hope. Choose change. Choose a better future.
VOTE YES.
Heck yeah! #VoteYes23 – at Adelaide, South Australia
Thank you, John Farnham. We are all in this together - our voices matter! 🫶🏾

📚I have loved reading @PaulRudnickNY's new novel, ‘Farrell Covington & the Limits of Style’.
I was lucky enough to see Rudnick & author Jean Hanff Korelitz in convo at NYC’s @strandbookstore.
Rudnick's blend of humor & pathos is incredible.
