Mornings With John Mackenzie

John MacKenzie catches up again with Dr. Paul Williams, Associate Professor in Politics and Journalism at Griffith University, for the latest update on polling data in regards to the upcoming "voice to parliament" referendum. The most recent polling figures show 53% popularity for the No Vote (i.e. for those who do not wish to change the constitution) and a low 38% in support of the Yes Vote. On October 14 2023 Australians will vote to amend the constitution to add a governmental Indigenous advisory body. On other matters, Dr. Williams commented on the falling popularity of Labor politicians in Far North Queensland, in particular around Cairns and Townsville, with youth crime being the primary motivator.
