Voting on the Voice to Parliament

Progressive Podcast Australia

On episode 295 we discuss how we’re voting in the Voice to Parliament referendum, focusing on the Yes campaign versus the Progressive No. These final thoughts on the Voice build on a previous episode we did on the topic, ‘Voicing Concerns on the Voice to Parliament’, which featured speeches from the 2023 Invasion Day rally: https://progressivepodcastaustralia.com/2023/02/15/288/
