Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to meet Chinese premier, Qantas, Qatar executives will face a Senate inquiry and the Voice to parliament debate continues.
Returning to Australia, Indigenous leader Marcia Langton has claimed death threats and abuse are being aimed at the key advocates for a Yes vote at the October 14 referendum, in an emotional call on voters to save lives by voting for change.
Professor Marcia Langton AO delivered an address to the National Press Club less than five weeks before the Voice referendum.But she called on the government to prepare for the aftermath of the national ballot by setting out how it would ensure consultation with First Nations people, saying a No vote would be falsely seen as a “mandate to do nothing” that would entrench disadvantage and cost lives.
President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned the attack, which officials said hit a crowded market in the city of Kostiantynivka, close to the battlefield.“This Russian evil must be defeated as soon as possible,” Zelensky said, describing it as a deliberate attack on a “peaceful city”.
