Regarding Indigenous Recognition & The Voice

The purpose of the Australian Monarchist League is to protect the integrity of the Australian Constitution and the Crown within it. We have been silent so far on the matter of Indigenous Recognition and a Voice to the Parliament as we are awaiting the release of the detail of a formal government proposal.

However, it is not helpful when members of organisations like ours hear comments threatening the Australian Constitution such as: “We will dismiss the Constitution … we thrown it out of Australia into the saltwater” he (Dr Yunupingu) said. (The Australian 3/8/19). It was also not helpful that the Government representative, Minister Wyatt, remained silent in the face of such an inflammatory comment.

Statements like this only give potency to the arguments of those speaking against recognition.
