The Yes campaign’s first video advertisement appeals to Australians to vote for constitutional recognition of Indigenous Australians at the upcoming referendum but makes only a passing reference to the Voice to parliament as the vehicle for achieving this.support among Australians
One of the faces of campaign, Arrernte elder Aunty Sabella Turner, tells the audience: “We’ve been here for 65,000 years.” “This campaign, right from the Uluru Statement from the Heart, has always said that this is about both – it’s about recognition, but it’s about that recognition having to be meaningful. That’s why Indigenous people have said it’s got to be through the Voice. So it’s about combining the two.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has repeatedly appealed to this baseline support, describing the Voice as a “modest change” that will deliver constitutional recognition and provide for Indigenous people to be consulted on laws that affect them. But the federal Opposition has sought to crystallise focus on the Voice itself as the wrong model for achieving recognition, which they claim to otherwise support.
