Dear Friend,

I wanted to make sure you saw John Howard’s e-mail, highlighting his concerns about this Voice proposal and asking for your support.

This Voice is risky with unknown consequences. It is divisive and would be permanent.

We know, however, that the Yes case will be backed by millions of dollars of advertising. 

Every dollar donated here will go to communicating key messages about the Voice to Australians. 

Thank you for your support. 

Regards, 

Peter Dutton
Leader of the Opposition

 

Dear Friend,

Recently, you might have received an e-mail from Peter Dutton about the Voice.
 
I am concerned that enshrining in the Constitution a Voice that covers all areas of “executive government” presents a real risk.
 
Like most people, I am in favour of constitutional recognition of Indigenous Australians.
 
However, what is being proposed is a Voice that can speak to every part of the federal government, with the potential for recommendations to be litigated if they are rejected.
 
This could create a constitutional quagmire. There is a risk that a future High Court could place an interpretation on the Voice which goes beyond the current expectations of the Government.
 
The Liberal team will highlight these risks to everyday Australians.
 
However, making these arguments in the face of political, corporate and celebrity support for the ‘yes’ campaign will be a challenge.

This Voice is constitutionally risky.
 
Its effects are unknown, as are key details about how it would operate.
 
Furthermore, this Voice would be permanent.
 
Every dollar donated will go to communicating key messages to everyday Australians.
 
Thank you for your support.

Regards, 

John Howard OM AC
Former Prime Minister
