PM's upcoming speech pledges 'referendum on an Indigenous Voice' by December 2023

Sky News Political Reporter Joel Philp says Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s upcoming speech at the Woodford Folk Festival tells festival-goers by December next year a “referendum on an Indigenous Voice to Parliament will have taken place”.

A draft of the speech says “momentum is growing” as it names governments, churches and sporting codes among just a few of its supporters.

“This could be an inclusive moment of national unity and reconciliation,” Mr Albanese has drafted.
