Yes campaigner Noel Pearson has urged voters to put aside their political views when voting for the Voice to Parliament.
“I want to make clear to those undecided voters … this is not a federal election, this is a referendum about our country,” he told Sky News Australia. “It’s not about Liberal versus Labor, or One Nation versus the Greens … this is about the future of our country.” “We only get this opportunity once every 200 years, whereas with a federal election, who governs the country, who has the power, who is the Prime Minister, we do that every three years.
“So, I urge Australian voters to suspend your tribal loyalties to your favourite political party and vote for the country on October 14.”
