Jacinta Nampijinpa Price rides the popularity wave, Dutton pulls out his playbook, and Albanese faces some inevitable questions
ABCThere's a ritual that comes with Thursdays at the end of a sitting fortnight. As the ABC's data journalist Casey Briggs reports, while booths in Alice Springs were firmly No, polling teams sent out into remote Indigenous communities across the Top End and red centre consistently returned high Yes results. "I think it's clear the Australian public is probably over the referendum process for some time," Dutton said, while Littleproud wondered what the rush was. Burney is a close confidante of Albanese — who was instrumental in urging her to run for federal parliament — and should he appoint her to become Australia's first Indigenous GG, there's certainly precedence. But this morning, frontbencher Ed Husic — another of the nation's firsts — offered a different argument, urging Australia to also speak up against what he calls the clear "collective punishment" of Palestinians in Gaza.
