The Voice to Parliament has experienced another “challenging week” with polls now showing the Yes case slipping below majority, according to Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell.

“His answer to that is he is doing what Indigenous leaders have requested, before, during, and after the Uluru Statement from the Heart: that constitutional recognition not just to be symbolic. “Anthony Albanese made clear on Sky News on Monday that the Voice campaign would be short and sharp.”
