Maybe Adam Goodes. He certainly is an honorable man.

More sycophantic bullshit.

I'm sick and tired over this dance around Aboriginals. Australia is more than that.

So they creating more money to spend ?

A great move/idea. Well done to the RBA

Reserve bank has gone woke!

Shouldn’t be hard to find one. They all contribute so much and take so little 👀

Will the note come with a warning that it contains images of deceased people

Just no! What happen to multicultural Australia? We are one and we are many from all the lands we come...represent that, not a minority; were all here!

Printing fake monopoly money for an unofficial republic without the second amendment! But Hey let's go cashless at the same time..🤡🌏

I say we put lidia Thorpe on it, she is a $5 hooker anyway

We all know who the people’s choice is. IStandWithDan

Goon bag

Since money isn't worth anything anyways who cares.... Put any fool you want on it.

Regardless of who they select some one will complain. Can we change it?…. No . Move on

😂

That and the never ending interest rate hikes show how out of focus the RBA is

More garbage identity politics.

I don’t think dots and circles and squiggly lines can be classified as icons of aboriginal history, unless that started in the 1980’s, “colonial years “

So the $5 note will replace the monarchy with some icons of Indigenous history'. Go on... do the same with all the notes and coins. Then our money can be handed over as property of the First Nation.

I'm happy with that.

Disgraceful

What might that be one has to wonder!

Is this your way of apologising for ignoring the voices and causing what’s been happening in the nt since your policy change

What iconswhat have they done to deserve that title

Should use this photo

how about we put David on the $5 note...

Vote 1 King Charles Corki! BloodHound

The start of the fall of the commonwealth

This will be interesting. Hopefully not a wife bashing child molesting indigenous icon

A very political correctness decision.

CRAWLING COUNTRY

Who makes these decisions? In consultation with who? Surely this is a joke...

As excepted we see the Murdoch minions instructed to ramp up attacks on the Labor Government. Told to unleash as they did on Gillard. Bring in on .R.W low lifes. Won't work this time around, losers.

This should win over a few more no votes.

The RBA should be disgusted with itself, just doing exactly what the government tells you to do. Thank goodness I don’t carry cash then.

Nah, the $5.00 note will be taken out of circulation and replaced with a coin.

Ernie Drongo no doubt

I can't think of a single aboriginal person who could be considered an 'icon'.

How very woke of them

🤣🤣🤣 why am I not surprised. Which ones? Those that have only been created in the last 50 years? And where’s the consultation?

The March continues…

You mean Stan Grant? 😂

New banknote to swap Queen portrait for Indigenous designAustralia's Reserve Bank has announced the $5 banknote will be updated, with a new design honouring the culture and history of the First Australians to replace the portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Read more at: Brilliant idea. 👍 Good to see we're giving indigenous folks a 'voice'. Sounds like a good idea. Expect the coins are going to end up with Charles 3 on them though.

Indigenous leaders pitch Voice directly to Dutton, seeking support of LiberalsArchitects of the Uluru Statement from the Heart will use a meeting with Opposition Leader Peter Dutton to make the case for why the Liberal Party should support this year's referendum on an Indigenous Voice to Parliament. Why bother? He’s only interested in playing politics with this to the last minute and the declaring the Libs will vote ‘no’- his position since the Coalitions own report recommended a Voice back in 2018. Dutton has shown his stubbornness before, he will vote “NO” because he cannot see the forest for the trees. Dutton focus is not on what’s best for the country moving forward as one people but, rather another opportunity to try & discredit the Labor Federal Government. He is irrelevant so they should treat him like he is irrelevant.

‘Migrants will decide’ if constitution will change for Indigenous Voice: Paul MurrayMigrants will be the ones to decide whether the constitution should be changed to include an Indigenous Voice to Parliament, says Sky News host Paul Murray. “According to the census, there are more than seven and a half million Australians that were born somewhere else,” Mr Murray said. Mr Murray said there were 17 electorates that voted ‘No’ in the same-sex marriage plebiscite a few years ago and most of the ones that voted ‘No’ had a “significant migrant population”. “We certainly know that there is a different relationship between multi-generational Australians and new Australians as to the questions around things like Australia Day and of course the wide issues about whether or not there need to be Indigenous recognition in the constitution,' he said. “So all polls still point to the idea that ‘Yes’ will win but if ‘Yes’ it doesn’t, or if it’s close, don’t be surprised if the communities of colour are the ones who made it so.' They are called Australians not Migrants 🤣 What's that irrelevant xenophobe's point? Shouldn't get a say unless they are naturalized

‘End to the impasse’ in terms of the ‘unofficial ban’ on China importing Australia’s coalSky News can reveal that there looks to be an end to the impasse in terms of the unofficial ban on China importing Australia’s coal, according to Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell. Mr Clennell said the Global Times reported that China is expected to receive its first shipment of Australian coal in years. “This could be good news indeed for Treasurer Jim Chalmers' budget, already boosted by tax proceeds from iron ore sales to China and coal and gas exports elsewhere in the world,” he said. Oh, the irony! Can't use it in our own country but give it all to one of the world's highest polluters. Be smart, look for other markets. If China can lock you out on a whim, they can do it again whenever they think it advantages them.
