Prime Minister Anthony Albanese hailed Qantas for the action it’s taken in supporting reconciliation as the national carrier launched its ‘Yes’ campaign for the Voice to Parliament.
That's it for Qantas for me watch the government pull them out of the crap now this is totally wrong business being involved in politics even if a yes or no vote
It’s as if the yes campaign are deliberately trying to ostracise the average voter in favour of support by corporations who can’t even vote at a referendum.
Wrong Albo….3rd nation peoples! If the 'Voice" referendum is based on the 'Uluru Statement from the Heart' document with all its misconceptions and questionable lies, then the whole process is possibly one of the biggest cases of 'FRAUD' ever undertaken by a political party against the Australian people? Proceeding to the polls should be deferred until after a commission of enquiry by Justices of the High Court of Australia have deemed it safe to proceed!
Here's an idea, all news outlets should be impartial like all corporations. You know call the facts and qualified facts only, not opinions. That would be different and then Murdoch's corporations would no longer be a cancer on society or a threat to democracy. That would be different.
Shut up Albanese,!!!!! You are not going to succeed.. I trust and pray to God and I believe and have faith in God and His mighty power to defeat this indiginous voice. This voice is going to be fail. Waste of time and money for the yes campaign, peoples. You Albanese don't deserve to be successful because you Alba are against God's chosen peoples, Israel and you against Jewish people.God's punishment will be on your life. SHAME ON ALBANESE!!!!!!!
What an absolute clown. When albo talks this much crap and waffles on for this long you know that he is lost the plot. How apt that a "Dementia" advertisement followed him.
There's a lesson here for all of us. Get bipartisan commitment first with signatures and everything. Then call a referendum so we all vote yes (except maybe the Greens)
Its not traditional indigenous art the aircraft are painted in but art inspired by a white man- Geoffrey Bardon who gets no attribution. For traditional art go to Yankee Hat comparative to kindergarten painting.
So how much tax payers dollars were paid to Qantas for the flying Yes campaign. I'll not only be voting NO, but also NOT flying Qantas. Qantas should focus on flying aircraft ONLY.
Profit driven scumbags Qantas has joined some of Australia’s largest and most influential corporations in campaigning for the Voice including Wesfarmers – which owns Bunnings, Target and Kmart – BHP, the Big Four banks and all major sporting codes.
The national carrier though has been marred by poor publicity since it received $2 billion from the Australian taxpayer as corporate welfare during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite recording massive profits – including $2.4 billion before tax in 2022-23 – Qantas has refused to pay back any of the more than $855 million it received from JobKeeper in 2021 and 2022.
It has also faced backlash over illegally sacking 1700 ground crew workers in 2020 after they raised concerns over servicing planes from China without necessary protective equipment. Qantas then outsourced the jobs before the Federal Court ruled the move was illegal and breached Fair Work protections.
The airline has launched a high court appeal plunging millions of dollars into overturning the decision against what was dubbed by Transport Workers Union national secretary Michael Kaine as the “largest case of illegal sackings in Australian history”.
Qantas is now under intense scrutiny over allegations of price gouging as the country endures a cost of living crisis.
Qantas: "our customer base is declining, citing price increases and lowering of service standards… So let's alienate half of the country by making political statements."
Here’s airbus Albo or Alboeing trying hard to sound like a statesman and all I can think is, sheeper ewectrishity, brusch spwingshteen. Thanks Danger Dan.
I will go out of my way to never fly QANTAS again, so long as my arse points to the ground. AJ is a deluded fool and has no right to push a political agenda when he is using a publicly listed company for his ideals.
Corruption 😡 prime minister stop wasting my money that is my voice and far as the prime minister using Qantas to push his point of view😡 just putting it out there I suppose that has nothing to do with the billions of dollars to bailout out Qantas years ago. This is supposed to be a vote for the people no business or Corporation should be pushing the point of view
I CANT LISTEN TO THIS PATHETIC EXCUSE OF A PM
Give it a break Albo no one's buying it .
That's it for Qantas for me watch the government pull them out of the crap now this is totally wrong business being involved in politics even if a yes or no vote
It’s as if the yes campaign are deliberately trying to ostracise the average voter in favour of support by corporations who can’t even vote at a referendum.
Disgusting!

Disgusting, the voice will make everyone poor in Australia, wake up end vote labour out.
Slurp Slurp 😂

you own this betrayal of the Australian people, Albonese. Now and forever. We will not forget
Shut up Albanese,!!!!! You are not going to succeed.. I trust and pray to God and I believe and have faith in God and His mighty power to defeat this indiginous voice. This voice is going to be fail. Waste of time and money for the yes campaign, peoples. You Albanese don't deserve to be successful because you Alba are against God's chosen peoples, Israel and you against Jewish people.God's punishment will be on your life.
SHAME ON ALBANESE!!!!!!!
Qantas isn’t Qantas anymore, it’s utterly disgraceful.
What an absolute clown. When albo talks this much crap and waffles on for this long you know that he is lost the plot. How apt that a "Dementia" advertisement followed him.

What about the CO2 emissions Albo 😂
Where's the gratitude for the billions of dollars we've already spent?
So how much benefits the other way did Qantas receive when Anthony was transport minister?
Qantas should be impartial and not sticking Yes on there jets, bloody disgraceful. Vote NO to raciest referendum.
So how much tax payers dollars were paid to Qantas for the flying Yes campaign. I'll not only be voting NO, but also NOT flying Qantas.
Qantas should focus on flying aircraft ONLY.
Qantas is low quality and already on the boycott list
Profit driven scumbags

Here’s airbus Albo or Alboeing trying hard to sound like a statesman and all I can think is, sheeper ewectrishity, brusch spwingshteen. Thanks Danger Dan.
This is disgraceful. Australians need to do a budlight on this woke airline.
You just know that if a government wants something this bad, you just automatically know that its not going to be good for you.
I will go out of my way to never fly QANTAS again, so long as my arse points to the ground. AJ is a deluded fool and has no right to push a political agenda when he is using a publicly listed company for his ideals.

LOL, Qantas share price has dropped 3.1% since the yes support announcement. Bring on the Budweiser Lite effect.
