Shadow Attorney-General Julian Leeser has announced he will quit the frontbench over concerns with Peter Dutton’s stance on the Indigenous Voice to Parliament.

Mr Leeser had worked with Indigenous leaders such as Pat Dodson on an earlier version of the Voice to Parliament over the past decade and had been conspicuously absent when the Opposition Leader announced the Liberal Party position on the referendum.
