Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has blamed ‘disinformation’ for the rising number of Labor voters planning to vote ‘No’ at the Voice to Parliament referendum. Recent polling has shown Labor voters' support for the Voice has continued to track down, with around 40 per cent of voters not planning to vote for the Voice. Mr Albanese acknowledged the key to fixing this is one-on-one conversations. At a press conference on Monday, the Prime Minister took a swipe at some of the tactics of the No campaign, believing they’re spreading fear and misinformation. “What we’ve had is a whole lot of disinformation out there,” Mr Albanese said. “I know a lot of people have not made up their mind, and what I know is that the feedback when people talk through these issues – they arrive at a Yes vote pretty comfortably. “I sincerely think the key to the next fortnight is those one-on-one conversations.”

Anthony Albanese slams Coalition’s ‘commitment to destruction’Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has slammed the Coalition for their “commitment to destruction”. “They don’t have any alternative plans, they don’t have any policies, they just have a commitment to destruction,” Mr Albanese said during a media conference on Monday. Mr Albanese said Tony Abbott’s style of government is the reason why the former prime minister didn’t last a full two years in the top job. “Because if you just say no to everything, you don’t actually have an alternative agenda going forward,” he said. “The Opposition have been obsessed by destroying everything that they see. “I’m continuing to be out there, engaging on the full range of issues, whilst the Opposition just shows themselves to be wreckers, and that is not providing a genuine alternative.”
