'Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will promise to hold the Indigenous Voice to Parliament referendum this year, emphatically rejecting calls to delay, defer or cancel the referendum.
Although the polls have been trending negatively for the voice, in my opinion the referendum should be held now, although I do kind of wonder if a referendum is even necessary to pass legislation since Albanese was elected prime minister anyway.
Your thoughts?
Key points:
- The prime minister is due to give a speech regarding the Voice on Saturday afternoon
- He has conceded there is no guarantee of success in a referendum
- He will say Indigenous people have made clear the constitutional recognition they seek is a Voice'
