Julian Leeser's Indigenous Voice Stance Praised by Liberal Colleagues
Model for a Voice Amendment
Julian Leeser MP, the Shadow Attorney-General and the Shadow Minister for Indigenous Australians, presented a new amended model for a voice at the National Press Club last Monday. His proposal has garnered praise from his Liberal colleagues, who believe it increases the likelihood of a "yes" vote in the upcoming referendum.
Leeser's Campaign
Leeser stated that he will campaign for the model he proposed. He outlined the key features of his plan, which he believes addresses concerns raised by Indigenous Australians and the wider community. The model includes provisions for a consultative body to advise Parliament on Indigenous affairs and for a referendum to be held in the future on whether to enshrine the voice in the Constitution.
Positive Reception
Liberal colleagues have welcomed Leeser's proposal, describing it as a significant step forward in the debate over Indigenous recognition. They believe it provides a clear and practical path to a voice for Indigenous Australians and that it will resonate with voters.
