Exclusive: Bridget Archer says ‘abhorrent’ comments ‘have no place in respectful society’, while Andrew Bragg warns language can be ‘dangerous’
Liberal MPs have condemned “abhorrent” and “revolting” commentary about Indigenous people aired at no campaign leader Warren Mundine’s CPAC conference, as pressure mounts on fellow anti-voice spokesperson Gary Johns.
Bragg, a senator from New South Wales and a longtime voice supporter, said “some of the comments are absolutely revolting and ridiculous”. In Johns’ speech, he said: “If you’re not trying to get those people either out of that remote community or out of the stupor in which they live, or give them the tools to allow them adapt to life in the modern world, the world we inherited, then you’re doing wrong.Johns then claimed to quote no campaign leader Jacinta Nampijinpa Price’s father.
