The Yes campaign for a Voice to Parliament has been caught out telling volunteers to change their messages about a possible future treaty with Aboriginal Australians depending on what kind of voter they were speaking to.

In the string of messages seen by this masthead, a volunteer understood to be making phone calls for the official Yes23 campaign on a recent evening asked at 6:41pm, “Hi guys, does anyone have a good script about treaty?”

“I just had a chat with someone about it and kinda got caught off guard,” the volunteer said.

One minute later, another participant in the chat understood to be a former Greens campaigner replied, “Probably depends whether they’re raising it because they’re scared of it, or because they think it’s important we move towards Treaty.”

Then, at 6:43pm, a third individual with the handle “Jonah-Yes23” after his name advised, “If they are pro treaty you can say that the Uluru statement from the heart asked for this (the Voice) before treaty, if they are anti treaty you can say it’s a purely advisory body.”

The issue of whether a Voice to Parliament would lead to a treaty has been one of the most contentious issues of the referendum campaign.

While Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and the Yes campaign have maintained that the vote is only about a Voice to Parliament, the No campaign has pointed to the fact that the prime minister promised to implement the Uluru Statement from the Heart, which calls for a Voice, treaty, and “truth telling”, in full.

In May, Yes23 campaign director Dean Parkin said the question of treaty was “a chat for later”.

A spokesman for Fair Australia, which leads the No campaign, said, “the Yes campaign has made it clear they have a different story for anyone who asks.”

“Australians are not stupid. We know when someone is trying to sell us a dud.

“This is confirmation of what Australians have long suspected: nothing that comes out of the mouth of a Yes23 activist can be believed.

“They have always been two-faced when it comes to their demands for a national treaty, and hiding the ball when it comes to the divisive agenda they will push with a constitutionally enshrined Voice.”

News of the messages came amid in a week that has seen the Yes campaign dogged by bad polls and controversy.
