What joke, it's broke we agreed on that, but what your saying is that we must pick a new model no matter what. Surely, there is a chance that you will create another broke system. Now, if you really feel that it is important that the system works, that all the checks and balances are in place then all well and good. I have yet to see a 'Yes' republician answer clearly and distinctly any of the concerns brought up by 'No' Republicians. So please prove to me that the checks and balances exist in the new system...

It is interesting that for most of the time up to now I could not see myself voting for the Republic. This week I have changed my mind. Why? After listening to the PM and many others supporting NO vote I have realised that contrary to what PM said that the 'current system is not broke so why to fix it'. Sorry PM but I have known for the past 40 years that it is 'broke' and not fit for our modern state to serve us through the future. It needs changing to give us sense of belonging, dignity and self respect in the rest of the world. So I will vote YES to Republic and NO to Preamble.
