The Voice will be about recognition, and it will be about listening.
At tonight’s Lowitja O’Donoghue Oration in Adelaide, I spoke about how Australians will have the chance to vote Yes to the future we seek to build. Lowitja O’Donoghue was driven by her faith in the Australian people and their instinct for a fair go.
“I do not disparage the symbolic ... As the 1967 referendum shows: the larger gestures may have to underpin other forms of progress,” she said. Back then, Australians voted in a referendum to remove a harmful, discriminatory relic. In 2023, our generation can go one better.
@AlboMP @PMalinauskasMP Great initiative to move towards addressing the situation .. 👏 👍
@AlboMP @PMalinauskasMP And you are driven by a massive ego and petty name calling. How is insulting the majority of Australians in favour of 1 minority uniting Australia
@AlboMP @PMalinauskasMP And a chance to say no no and noooooo

@AlboMP @PMalinauskasMP I have met Lowitja O’Donoghue several times in my career. She is a very nice lady who is dedicated to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders advocacy. I have a deep respect and admiration of her and her work🙏🖤💛❤️
@AlboMP @PMalinauskasMP I’m still waiting for my electricity bill to drop by $275, but all I had is the Voice
@AlboMP @PMalinauskasMP It will also be about reparations
@AlboMP @PMalinauskasMP In SA, a state that is passing anti-protest laws reminiscent of Qld under Joh Bjelke Petersen.
