chriskkenny ItaButtrose Well said Ita. It's time to have the discussion, the 26th can remain a holiday and be re named 1st Fleet Day but the 1st is the day we became a nation and should be Australia Day.

ItaButtrose It's really that easy. Agree that it causes offence and find a better date.

ItaButtrose Stop pandering to less than 3% of the population when it is above 75% then we change but until every one just get on with life..

ItaButtrose Come back to Studio10au!.

ItaButtrose I don’t care

chriskkenny ItaButtrose Another inner city elitist out of touch with the majority of Aussies

ItaButtrose Ita, here's a little homework for you. I want you to calculate how much money has been given to communities to fix these supposed wrongs. Let's say since 1970. They wanted self determination, got it. They wanted an apology, got it, they wanted land returned, got it & then sold it

ItaButtrose You support this change Ita, but standby for the assault on AnzacDay. It is already happening.

ItaButtrose It doesn’t cause grief. That’s just a narrative pushed by cultural marxists reinforced by mainstream media.

chriskkenny ItaButtrose White (leftist) Australians manipulate Aboriginals into feeling aggrieved by the date. Aboriginals are their political fodder. Nothing changes for them. It simply empowers the white agitators with their culture war.

ItaButtrose Ita, so that means the majority doesn’t matter? 🤔

chriskkenny ItaButtrose Nah, I admire and respect Ita Buttrose but don’t accept changing the date of Australia Day

chriskkenny ItaButtrose Sorry Ita

ItaButtrose Ita jog on, just your view but thankfully not a majority!

ItaButtrose I thought u were awake to this Ita.. go ahead.. change it.. and then it will be something else.. and something else then something else..

chriskkenny ItaButtrose Change it to what she wants me and my family and our friends will always celebrate AUSTRALIAN DAY on the 26th of Jan

ItaButtrose media beat it up

ItaButtrose How did you end up on skyafterdark on a show with a host that's such a twit?

ItaButtrose The question is, does it really, or is the same mob that just complain about everything and anything. Do aboriginals reall go through life feeling bad about something that happened 250 years aha. Every culture has been through things in their past. Why can’t aboriginals move on

ItaButtrose They simply don't want Australia Day at all! You can never please them.

ItaButtrose It doesn’t cause grief to indigenous Australians in the main. It causes grief to white left wing activists with an guilt complex about being white!

ItaButtrose Activists have stated they want to do away with Aust Day altogether. Rejecting the date symbolises rejection of colonisation & Oz altogether. Colonisation ('invasion') was a process. Every day after the 26th is tainted, including establishment of the Commonwealth on 1 Jan.

ItaButtrose Give it up people. All will go quiet now for 11 months. Then guess what the topic will be next mid January. It’s like a broken record.

ItaButtrose No. Only to some Indigenous Australians on the Left does it cause grief. Yothu Yindi supports Australia Day remaining on January 26th. Not all Indigenous Australians who are against Australia Day want the date changed others want it abolished entirely.

ItaButtrose Its my day. Not yours.

ItaButtrose Well...i guess it's time to move Ita on.

ItaButtrose

ItaButtrose Can somebody tell me whyyjis is an issue when it’s been this date for years. Got to be some hidden agenda here stirring up trouble.....saints preserve us

ItaButtrose I thought Ita was too smart to fall for this leftist crap claiming they speak on behalf of all Aboriginals. Do people really think a change of date will end protests from the perpetually offended ?

Australia Day celebrated with citizenship events, parades, billy cart races and a day at the beachPeople across the country are out celebrating Australia Day, from large citizenship ceremonies in Sydney and parades through Melbourne to beers on the beach in Queensland. On this Aust Day I would like to ack. the Fed. of Aust.and it's associated democracy and independence from our colonial past. This freedom allows us to question the morality of our past, share our present and collaborate with all peoples to a challenging but vibrant future. We all must remember that some whites have allowed Indigenous peoples to prosper, look at these Indigenous doctors, taught by white men. Did ScMo write this article for you ABC? (and the report on the protests against Australia Day was thr minimum you could get away with while still pretending to have some journalistic integrity)

She was right to do so.

Emergency doctors deployed at Australia Day music festivals | Sky News AustraliaMedical teams are on standby for three music festivals in New South Wales this Australia Day long weekend. \n\nThe Electric Gardens, the Rolling Loud and the Hardcore Till I Die festivals will have an increased medical presence. \n\nThere will be three critical care doctors, a critical care paramedic and four emergency nurses working at each event. \n\nFollowing the deaths of six young people at Australian music festivals in the past six months, the events are being considered high risk for drug overdoses and dehydration. \n\n\n\n\n Have any Police given this simple little 'brainfart' a thought. If a festival-goer enters an area for a concert, he wont be drug tested, but he could be searched though. But if he drives his car in, there's a good chance he will be tested and searched.!!!! Boost the sniffer dogs and implement $10k fines. My taxes hard at work. Again.

For Indigenous people, survival is at the heart of marking Australia DayTo many, Australia Day will always be a day of survival, and it's become a constant theme for festivals and ceremonies held on January 26 around the country. Here's what's on today. Why not just call it Federation Day. That's when Australia became a nation of all sorts. Might also ignite changes that are needed in our Constitution? The Americans have Independence Day for example.

Change the date or abolish it: Australia Day protestersThousands gather around the country to call for a change to the way Australia celebrates its national holiday. If you move Christmas day to another date what have you changed? Celebrate the same thing on a different day, nothing changes. So why change Australia day? If you don't like it don't have the day off. When are people going to catch on that the Australian Anarchists have been at the core of every violent protest in Melbourne for the last 10 years. Blah blah blah
