Indigenous Australians Shadow Minister Jacinta Nampijinpa Price says the Labor’s Voice to Parliament is “flawed” and is “built on lies”. Jacinta Nampijinpa Price addressed the National Press Club Thursday afternoon, detailing why she is against the Voice referendum and explained why the referendum would only further 'divide the nation”. “The first lie that underpins the Voice is that Indigenous Australians do not have a voice,” Ms Price said at the National Press Club on Thursday. “We’ve been told by the Indigenous minister for Indigenous Australians that Indigenous people do not get a say on policies or the decisions being made on our behalf. “Our most marginalised deserve better than this; they deserve the truth, the unvarnished, untainted and yes maybe unpalatable to some people, truth.”

‘No genuine appetite in Canberra to tell the truth’: Jacinta Price on Voice debateShadow Minister for Indigenous Australians Jacinta Price says she has been told that she is a “sellout”. Ms Price said that she had been “racially abused, vilified, name called and threatened with violence”. “The truth is for all the moral posturing, virtue signaling about truth telling, there is no genuine appetite in Canberra to tell the truth or to hear the truth. “This could not be any clearer than in this government’s referendum on the Voice. “Australians desperately want to do the right thing for their fellow Australians regardless of background. “Many who have engaged with this proposal, hoping to find a way to help the Indigenous Australians who most need assistance, are left disappointed. “They are left with the falsehoods, misleading information and promises that can’t be kept and should never have been made.”
