A senior Coalition frontbencher has warned fellow no voters against attending anti-voice rallies promoted by a pro-Kremlin activist, arguing the events are a “shameless” attempt to push “wacky and extreme causes”.
Simeon Boikov, who uses the online persona “the Aussie Cossack”, is among those promoting “no to the voice” rallies around Australia this Saturday, including a major rally in Sydney featuring federal senator Ralph Babet and former MP Craig Kelly.
