DAVID SPEERS, HOST: Prime Minister, welcome to the program.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, David.

SPEERS: Six days to go until referendum day. What's your level of confidence? Will Australia vote Yes?

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Thanks very much, and thank you to Aunty Matilda and the other Indigenous people who have welcomed us here this morning. And to all of my parliamentary colleagues who are here, it's fantastic so many people turning out. And it's great as well that Kate Carnell is here representing Liberals for Yes. This should be above politics. What is on the referendum ballot paper that I had the right to vote on yesterday, the first referendum held this century.

Thanks to Sheikh Wessam Charkawi for his introduction and to Uncle John for his smoking ceremony.

I would also like to acknowledge Imam Shadi Alsuleiman, President of the Australian National Imams Council, Dr Ibrahim Abu Mohamad, Grand Mufti of Australia, Hafez Alamadine, President of the Lebanese Muslim Association and Sheikh Yahya Safi, Imam of Lakemba Mosque.

It’s such an honour to join you all here in this holy place.

South Australia has a long and proud history of advancing the fair go.

In the 1890s, South Australians led the nation in granting women the right to vote in elections and run for office.

In the 1960s South Australians led the nation on land rights. In the 1970s South Australians led the nation in decriminalising homosexuality.

This week, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are looking to South Australia to help lead the nation again, by voting Yes.

Voting Yes to their request for constitutional recognition through a Voice. 

The Albanese Government is delivering on its commitment to Brisbane Southsiders, with a provider for the Brisbane South Medicare Urgent Care Clinic (Medicare UCC) selected, following an Expression of Interest process.

Cornwall Street Medical Centre will be established as the Brisbane South Medicare UCC and will start seeing patients 23 October 2023.

NARELDA JACOBS, HOST: Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, thanks for joining us at Midday. Now, opinion polls suggest –

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, good to be with you from Wynnum.

JACOBS: It’s the still undecided voters that could help deliver a Yes victory. What will you be telling voters as they line up today to try and sway them?

I am pleased to invite visitors to The Lodge Gardens on the morning of Saturday 7 October.

Located in Deakin, Canberra, The Lodge has been an official residence for the Prime Minister of Australia since its completion in 1927.

Over the years it has served as a home for families, hosted international delegations and is an historical landmark in Australia’s political history.

VOICEOVER: I present the Honourable Anthony Albanese, Prime Minister.

MATT, HOST: Yeah, he's in the studio with us this morning.

ABBY, HOST: Yeah, and just before we get to some questions that you might have, 13 10 60 about the Voice, we were just talking off air about a visit to The Lodge.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Indeed. You’re in.

ABBY: Thank you so much.

MATT: You invited us, you were asking us to come.

Well, I'd very much like to thank Uncle Colin for the Welcome to Country and to congratulate and give a big shout-out to Briggs and everyone who's been associated with putting on this really important festival to campaign for a Yes.

We have eight days to make the greatest country on earth just that little bit greater.

This is about just two things.

First, recognising the great privilege that non-Indigenous Australians have of sharing this continent of ours with the oldest continuous culture on earth.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: It's great to be here at the announcement for another urgent care clinic, one of 11 that will be opened here in Queensland, one of the 58 that we're opening right around the country between now and the end of this year. I'm joined by Senator Murray Watt and Mark Bailey, local state MP. But of course, one of the things that these urgent care clinics is about is taking pressure off the public hospital system by creating a mid-tier, by creating a place where people can go who need urgent care, but don't have life threatening conditions.
