So does that mean that Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price would scrap Closing the Gap?

I wouldn’t go so far as scrapping Closing the Gap, but understanding where the actual gap exists is, I think, the most important thing that we can do in moving forward. Obviously, over the years, things haven’t changed. Things haven’t budged for the better, for as I said, marginalised Indigenous Australians, and they would absolutely be a focus priority under under a Coalition government.

Price was the face of the No campaign during the referendum. Price and the Coalition repeatedly say that ‘things haven’t changed’ for Indigenous Australians, after torpedoing one of the options put up as offering meaningful change. Since then, the idea of ‘regional voices’ that the Coalition floated as solutions have completely disappeared. So ‘meaningful change’ needs to be put into context.
