This week, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese officially revealed the date of the referendum on the Voice to Parliament - October 14.


Albanese gave a minimalist speech, focusing on what the Yes campaign says is the simplicity and the modesty of its request for Constitutional recognition of Indigenous people. 


So how did the launch go? How was it received and what was the political fallout?


Plus, the pay rise our federal politicians just received - the largest in nearly a decade.


Today, national affairs editor James Massola and chief political correspondent David Crowe join Jacqueline Maley to discuss the week in politics.
