Wong remarks a ‘kick in the guts’ says Price

Coalition Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price has unleashed on Foreign Minister Penny Wong for suggesting that the Voice proposal will be revived and is inevitable.

Senator Price said on Thursday that Senator Wong’s comments showed “utter disrespect” to voters.”

“That there is a kick in the guts, and it demonstrates just how deceitful Labor are,’ Ms Price told 2GB radio.

“Labor don’t respect the outcome, they don’t respect the will of the Australian people, because deep down, as Penny said, “it’s inevitable” – she still believes in it.

“And they’ve never been straightforward any time I’ve asked them during Senate estimates what they’re doing about their commitment to the Uluru Statement from the Heart.”
