My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. Minister, over the last few days we've seen widespread media reports that Marcia Langton, who is leading the 'yes' campaign, has attacked fellow Australians who intend to vote no in the upcoming referendum. As reported in the Bunbury Herald, and subsequently in the national media, Marcia Langton described their position as being 'base racism' or 'sheer stupidity'. Minister, will you join with me in condemning that type of attack and acknowledge that on 14 October, many Australians will vote no for good and sensible reasons?
