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

NZer chiming in here. I have so many questions.

Is $3.50 a good price? That seems very expensive to me, I'd expect $2NZD, and occasionally $2.50NZD but that's an expensive one.

You mentioned getting free onions. Does this mean that onions are not always included? For my $2 I for sure expect onions are included if I want them. Do you have to pay extra for sauce as well?

How do we get sausages at our polling booths in NZ?

Is the referendum literally just to ask whether the constitution should recognise the First Peoples of Australia? Is there a good reason why the tally so far shows every state is voting no?

[โ€“] Affidavit@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago

The referendum was on whether to create and enshrine an advisory body with the power to make indigenous-focused representations to parliament.

I suspect the referendum would have succeeded if it were purely to recognise Australia's aboriginal people as being the first peoples of Australia.
