Failed referendum on Indigenous rights sets back Australian government plans to become a republic

Associated Press  

CANBERRA, Australia — Australia’s failed referendum on the Indigenous Voice has set back the government’s plans to cut the nation’s constitutional ties to Britain’s King Charles III, a minister said Thursday. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese made the Voice referendum a top priority for his center-left Labor Party government’s first three-year term when it was elected last year. “Sadly, over the past six months Australia and Queensland have been subject to one of the most divisive debates in my life,” Crisafulli said in a statement, referring to the referendum campaign. South Australia had the second strongest “no” vote and next year will become Australia’s first state to introduce a state-based Indigenous Voice.
