Indigenous leader Noel Pearson issues stringing rebuke of Nationals’ decision to oppose Voice to parliament; AG Mark Dreyfus still confident referendum can succeed. Follow updates here.

Indigenous leader Noel Pearson has lambasted the Nationals’ decision to oppose a Voice to parliament, warning the junior Coalition partner risks writing itself off and likening party leader David Littleproud to a “kindergarten child”.

Indigenous leader Noel Pearson has accused the National Party’s David Littleproud as a “kindergarden child.”“A number of MPs have told me that the reason they were open to the Voice was that they have Aboriginal people in their electorates. They see Aboriginal people every day, Aboriginal people enter their doors of the offices.

“Because Pauline Hanson got caught in a vortex, and it’s a celebrity vortex. A celebrity vortex that’s very compelling, that gets her out in front of people and gets a lot of cheers, but it’s also a redneck celebrity vortex. And, ultimately, it’s a tragic redneck celebrity vortex. Pearson said the Nationals had “foisted the mantle of leadership on a boy” in Littleproud, who he also described as a “kindergarten child” and “incapable of the leadership that’s necessary for the country and for his party”

Low values and little to contribute to the country, that is the Nationals these days... Which makes sense that they work with the Liberal Party, neither care for the country or it's people.

Nationals to oppose ‘racist’ Indigenous VoiceA referendum on Indigenous recognition will not have bipartisan support after the junior Coalition partner said the plan was misguided. Can someone tell Australians what a voice to parliament will achieve?. Will it guarantee indigenous communities better health, education, schools, jobs, housing and safety for the vulnerable & report to parliament on outcomes. Or will it be a gravy train for the few. Smart move. And great timing. Good.
