Opposition leader Peter Dutton has described a “sense of relief” following the defeat of the Voice referendum, as leaders scramble to find a new way forward.
Australian’s resoundingly rejected the proposed Voice to Parliament in a national ballot on Saturday, with only one state or territory reporting a majority “yes” vote.
“There is . We live in the greatest country in the world. We should celebrate the success that we've got within Indigenous communities now.“Had we enshrined the Voice, I think we would've put at risk some of the success … we have to listen to the verdict … If we can do that, there is opportunity for a bright future.”
“The Prime Minister acted against advice. He was warned not to take the country down this divisive path, and he made the decision to keep the design of the Voice from the people. Mr Albanese told the media on Saturday night that the Yes campaign had “given our all”, adding that the vote was not the “end of the road” on addressing Aboriginal disadvantage.
