- A new group called Advance Australia plans to spend $15 million fighting the Indigenous Voice to Parliament referendum.
- They aim to run ads warning the Voice will divide the country and give special rights to one group.
- The group already spent $11 million on similar campaigns against Labor in the 2022 election.
Advance Australia, a conservative lobby group, is ramping up its opposition to the Voice to Parliament ahead of the 2023 referendum. They're gearing up with a huge budget to sway public opinion against constitutional change. This matters because it shows big money pouring into the No side, potentially tipping the close race.
