'Yes' Campaigner Noel Pearson has addressed The National Press Club to deliver “the largest motive for voting Yes” as Australia heads towards the Voice to Parliament referendum on October 14th. Mr Pearson told media “we are in the main game” as just over two weeks remain before the referendum deadline. “It is absolutely vital we win this referendum,” he said. “I have reflected on what I have learned from listening to thousands of my fellow Australians and the thousands whose intentions in this referendum I could not be sure of. “I have come to see it is the love of our country that joins us all as Australians. “It is not the same as patriotism because there is nothing political about this love of country – rather, it is about the wondrous land and seas.”
