It's going to open the ultimate can of worms - everywhere. Not just in Redland City region.
Besides umpteen Native Title claims, Voice to parliament is going to be the catalyst for any amount of legal challenges which First Nations Australians interest groups mount against the state and federal government, and potentially, private landowners as well, for what they will claim is "legally and constitutionally theirs".
Meaning in plain English, get ready for a myriad amount of claims, with or without actual Native Title basis, over so much of Queensland.
The Voice to parliament's ambiguity certainly appears to leave the door open for First Nations Australians and their lawyers to make claims over a vast expanse of Queensland, including private property, using "customary law".
Once a precedent is set by having a successful claim made over any land or landmark by way of customary law, however legitimate that initial claim is, the floodgates will likely be opened to an humongous amount of illegitimate and bogus claims, for nefarious reasons.
The Redlands City Council / Native Title claim debacle is a warning in disguise about the Voice to parliament. It's saying - beware. Vote NO.
