Subject: Thank You
On behalf of the Queensland 'NO' Republic Campaign Coordinators and
Supporters, I would like to convey their sincere 'THANK
YOU' for your enormous efforts with the 'NO/NO' campaign that contributed to the decisive
defeat of both Referendum questions last Saturday.
The republican media, although predicting a close result, maintained that a
'yes' vote was 'inevitable'. They were WRONG.
The only 'inevitable' component was that the republican movement and their
party politician mates in Canberra would NOT accept the 'WILL of the PEOPLE'
and insist on having another Referendum or Plebiscite at a possible cost of
another $120,000,000 (One Hundred & Twenty million dollars).
The most underestimated factors by the republicans were the Australian
People's resolve and determination in their support of OUR Constitutional
Monarchy and that they would not be jeopardised by placing more power in the
hands of the party politicians.
Kim Beazley speaking on behalf of the republicans, stated that it was the
ordinary Australians, those at the lower end of the 'socioeconomic scale',
those who earned less than $80,000 per annum, who defeated the republic
Referendum.
He was right, and WE will do it again.
Respectfully Yours,
Selwyn N.L. Johnston
Queensland 'NO' Republic Campaign.
