About this episode
Over the course of the referendum’s official campaign, the case against the Voice has been dominated by the conservative “No” campaign, led by Opposition Leader Peter Dutton, Jacinta Price and Warren Mundine.
But what is the “progressive No” case – the advocates of which are predominantly First Nations people. The Blak Sovereign movement against the Voice isn’t officially campaigning for its demise and isn’t backed by less-than-transparent fortunes and vested interests.
Their opposition comes from an entirely different place to that of the conservatives, yet reaches the same conclusion: NO.
Today we speak to the face of the “progressive No”, Senator Lidia Thorpe.
