The Voice referendum was Australia's 'Brexit moment'

Liberal Senator Alex Antic says the Voice was Australia’s “Brexit moment”. The Indigenous Voice was emphatically rejected in October by a majority of voters in every state and territory except the Australian Capital Territory. “It would be hard to go past the Voice, I think, for the best in the sense that it was the moment I think … mainstream Australia realised that it wasn’t alone,” Mr Antic told Sky News host Cory Bernardi. “It felt like everybody was for it except that nobody actually was. “It was, I think, ultimately our Brexit moment and from that point onwards, I think, mainstream Aussies now know that … it wasn’t racist to vote ‘no’.”
