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.
