We've seen these sorts of fear campaigns from the National Party in the past in relation to native title. It seems that we're going to have it again. You'd really hope that people would learn that spreading misinformation about native title and people losing their farms and their backyards and their suburban rail loops—I mean, we know where this is going, Senator McKenzie. As I say, the role of the Voice is simply to make representations on matters relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to the Commonwealth parliament and the executive government of the Commonwealth. If you choose to go outside and claim otherwise, then that is wrong and dishonest.
