Tony Abbott has warned the Indigenous Voice to Parliament is ‘wrong in principle and it will work out badly in practice’ as he defends Jacinta Price as ‘relentlessly practical’ on First Nations issues.
Senator Price has spoken out against the Indigenous Voice to Parliament, saying the body would create a division between indigenous and non-indigenous Australians and wouldn’t address the issues facing First Nations communities.
Tony Abbot said Jacinta Nampijinpa Price “knows what she’s talking about” as the debate continues about the Indigenous Voice to Parliament. Picture: Supplied. “We tolerate things that we wouldn’t tolerate for second in suburban Australia because we say well that’s just the sort of thing that happens in remote places”.
