Peter Dutton says he’s concerned about how Anthony Albanese’s Indigenous Voice to Parliament will “change our democracy”.

The federal opposition leader argues Mr Albanese is “dividing the country” and the proposed changes will “become a bureaucracy in Canberra that doesn’t help Indigenous people”.

“I think the fact the Prime Minister refuses to answer even the most basic of questions, including the refusal to release the solicitor-general’s advice should make a lot of Australians sit up, think, have a real look at the detail of what the PM is proposing,” he told 3AW’s Tom Elliott.

“I think the more people understand it, the more inclined they’re going to be to oppose it.”

Mr Dutton has put forward an alternate Voice proposition which includes constitutional recognition for Indigenous Australians and community-specific consultation with Aboriginal residents.
