The accelerating trend among our 18-35 year-olds to dump the divisive arguments of the Left promoting the Yes case is surely heartwarming. (Young a fresh worry for Yes camp, 4/10). Having attended a firebrand speech recently promoting the No case by 24-year-old law student Myles Jerrard, I was soundly convinced that the Labor government could already have enacted legislation and by now have realised many of the expected benefits of their new bureaucracy if they were serious. An Indigenous youth from western NSW, he was the only boy in his class to visit a career adviser in his school to map out his professional life. Inspiring, commanding, fluent, his amazing mind was well focused when articulating that an absence of motivation among his peers would not be ignited by a larger Canberra bureaucracy. Accompanied by his fourth-year medical student friend, also Indigenous, I was proud to acclaim them as wonderful role models for all Australians, disregarding underlying race or culture. Clear thinking, collaborative and completely devoid of toxic self-entitlement, I await optimistically his future appointment as our first Indigenous prime minister. Now that’s a voice I will vote yes for. Alan Sexton, North Parramatta. 5Oct2023.
