Sky News host Chris Kenny says the major sporting codes are looking at campaigning for the Voice yes campaign.

3 minutes ago

“This could be quite the full court press because we’re talking about the AFL, the NRL, Netball, Cricket, Soccer, Tennis, all the major sports lining up for the yes campaign,” Mr Kenny said. “This is great to the extent that it reflects public goodwill, but they need to be very careful here – there are plenty of people who love their sport and want to vote no, and plenty of others who just don’t want to be preached at.

“It has to be okay to vote no, first because that’s just the way it should be in the contest of ideas, but also if people feel pressured, the backlash will only hurt the yes case – it’ll backfire so tone is everything.”

They don't believe in equalization after all.

Why would they want this? It is divisive, racists, expensive, pointless, and will cost the taxpayers forever in court actions.

Just play the sport. That's why you're there.

Just play your sport and keep your opinions to yourself you woke individuals

They better not.

They also support gambling and showering in groups.

Sport and politics .Separate thanks

Left the cricket. Football will be next!

Good!

VoteNOAustralia Political sponsorship & Corporate organisations are trashing the game of sports!

If my club Richmond does that, it will be without one of its supporters be assured.

Well of course they would, anyone saying no would be treated as a racist.😂😂😂

FFS - is there not a single idea (apart from Murdoch's) that commentators from Sky, 9Entertainment et al can come up with? 2GB this morning, now Chris Kenny - identical claims.

Stick to playing your game(s) and stop trying to influence our private lives. Mullets.

Do they have a policy on men claiming gender femalism to play in their woman’s teams? What is their position on that! Obviously they believe the Football grounds r owned by the Aboriginals with “welcome to their county” so do they pay the local tribes rent for using their land?

His record of saying things are being looked at when it turns out they are doing the opposite of his premised direction is reliable.

Keep politics out of sport. They don not go hand in hand.

If they are successful in their support for the Yes campaign and it all goes horribly wrong, as it will, they will be nowhere to be seen. Mark my words.

He’ll be happy We stop watching Sky at 8pm Kenny’s a flog

Sports and politics…

What makes footy teams Constitutional law, and cultural experts? Stick to playing football guys…

Politics needs to stay out of sport period.

The major sporting codes will always side with the minority left these days. Not that I disagree with indigenous people having a voice but the blatant virtue signalling from especially the NRL is gross.

Politics is destroying my love for sport. Watching sport is an escape for me. A way of shifting my mind to a happier place for a short time. But now I'm getting politics entering a place it should not be.

PLEASE keep politics out of sport!

So you are forcing players and fans With only 25% info with the other 75% still in the planning stage Not real smart NRL Just focus on the the issues in the code and play football .

They’re not “ looking” they’re all actively campaigning for a YES vote

Sports codes should stay out of politics.

They should stick to their sport not give direction on our way of life. Go wok go broke!

Not at grass roots level. Kenny is too stubborn to admit he picked the wrong side.

Why not mind your own business & stick to sport 🤬

No sporting code, no business, no actors, no celebrities should be telling us how to vote.... EVER

Keep the stuff out of politics & just play sport. Your core business.

Sports and politics…always a good mix👍

‘Seeded to a cohort of Indigenous activists’: Our sovereignty voting ‘yes’ to the VoiceSky News host Rowan Dean says if you vote ‘yes’ to the Voice to Parliament, you are voting for a treaty and “sovereignty of this nation” to be “seeded to a cohort of indigenous activists”. “You are seeding sovereignty, you are seeding your property rights, you are seeding your future income or a portion of it to an amorphous group known as the Indigenous Australians,” Mr Dean told Sky News host Andrew Bolt. “They are the activist class.” No Kidding 🤷‍♂️ That’s an outright lie! We not ceding it to SenatorThorpe 😂😂😂 The referendum won't get the votes.
