The coalitions entire thing has been sewing doubt by lying about what the voice is and how it was started. I’m disappointed because their efforts most likely will result in nothing happening. And for what? They gain nothing from knocking the voice back.

They probably want to deny Albo and Labor anything nice.

It is the standard conservative policy. Block everything the opposition tries to do when they’re in power and blame them for everything when they’re not.

That’s the part I don’t understand, supporting this could have been a watershed moment for the coalition, and right when they desperately need to appeal to a mainstream audience.

I agree! I also really can’t understand that either. It seemed obvious. What happened to the “good long look at ourselves” they promised after the federal election? Maybe they’re done looking and saw only perfection haha.
