Who is Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price?
Episode description
After a week that forced a reshuffle on the Coalition front bench, Peter Dutton had to announce a new spokesperson for Indigenous Australians – he needed someone who would enthusiastically support his ‘No’ position on the Voice to Parliament.
His choice was Jacinta Nampijinpa Price – a first-term senator.
So who is Dutton’s new pick? How did she rise so quickly through the ranks? And what does she really believe about Indigenous Affairs?
Today, chief political correspondent for The Saturday Paper Karen Middleton, on why the Liberal party is betting it all on Jacinta Nampijinpa Price.
