So the Greens won’t rule out voting with *Pauline Hanson* to block a referendum to enshrine a First Nations Voice to Parliament? 🚩

#NPC @AdamBandt The Greens position, suggesting Voice last, is a position without logic, devoid of strategy.

It’s like their advice is coming from someone who couldn’t be bothered listening to other mob, walking away from the hard strategy work before it was done.
