Good afternoon. The Indigenous voice campaign has taken a toxic turn with Prof Marcia Langton alleging she has been “lied about” and targeted by certain media outlets.
Langton, an influential Indigenous proponent of the voice, strenuously denied a report in the Australian newspaper that she had dismissed no campaigners as “racist”. The Australian’s headline was shared in an Instagram post by the opposition leader, Peter Dutton, and fellow Coalition members Angus Taylor, Sarah Henderson, Andrew Hastie, Colin Boyce and Jonathon Duniam, as well as the Liberal party of Australia’s main account.
