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?
It was actually about whether the constitution should be changed to say there shall be a body called the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice, and that this body "may make representations to the Parliament and the Executive Government of the Commonwealth on matters relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples". Purely symbolic recognition would have had a much better chance of getting in IMO.
