King Charles III won’t replace his mother on Australia’s next $5 note, instead the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II will make way for a “design that honours the culture and history of the First Australians”.
The Reserve Bank of Australia announced its decision on the note design on Thursday morning, but said the new design was still some years away from being finalised and coming into circulation.It confirmed the Australian Parliament would continue to feature on other side of the note. The RBA said it consulted with the federal government before making its decision, and had the government’s support.
“The bank will consult with First Australians in designing the $5 banknote. The new banknote will take a number of years to be designed and printed,” it said in a statement. “In the meantime, the current $5 banknote will continue to be issued. It will be able to be used even after the new banknote is issued.
Hear! Hear!
Ok but then who decides what is on the money of australia, the aboriginals! Really where has Democracy gone.
Without any political pressure from the AustralianLabor govt I would suspect.
Too ugly 🤷♀️🤷♀️ Prove me wrong.
Totally disrespectful to who at the moment is our monarch! Whoever made that call should be exposed by the Governor General and sacked. For what it’s worth, when you lose respect for who you are and those who represent you, you don’t exist!
No one cares - value is the same - we should be more concerned of a cashless society. Then everyone will wish they had cash when authorities freeze your funds!!
I am sure that will save plenty of time not awaiting Royal approval for the design. WIN-WIN
This government slow chipping away at anything to do with our past…
The age. Minds wired shut.
And?
Shane Warne died last year the timing is superb, let’s make it happen
It’s a joke. It should be a vote by the taxpayers. Not limp wristed politicians.
Chicka the 3rd needs to be there to remind us we are not mature enough yet.
👍
So will it be prince Andrew? He’s already been on a few fives…..
Finally the RBA thinks that a worthy Aussie should be on our notes instead of a foreigner. Makes so much sense. Next step our coins.
This is awful. Should not have been allowed to happen!
Great decision
Absolutely disgusting decision to make on behalf of us.
Should be harrys book cover
Who cares?
Pretty disrespectful all round. The Queen was an outstanding person, and you don't have to be a monarchist to agree. They could have left her picture on their for a few years. don't forget if people are willing to show such disrespect, the chances of them respecting you are low
It's just Charlie ....no crown ...
We are still part of the monarchy
The reckless left wing RBA and its exec's are engaging in an act of subversion. Also engaging in cancel culture, attempting to cancel out our Head of State from the constitutional equation. They have NO AUTHORITY to prepare the notes for a Republic not voted on by we the people.
Not unexpected but the wrong decision
Good
Disgusting. Areal act of terrorism. Erasing history will not honor indigenous people.
Hooray.
Blame King Charles & his crime family who created the aboriginal industrial complex. This is all about the Great Reset they are the authors of.
Monarchists outrage in 3, 2, 1...
PolipediaAu
PolipediaAu
Oh good
🤦🏻♀️
We all know the LIEberal LiberalAus party will be pushing for their God uncle Rupert to be put on there instead as the head of the LIEberal Notional Murdoch party
🤣🤣 what a fathead
Good
Flag next…
Good, now I can feel free to pocket and use the new $5 note when it materialises
Print it on toilet paper also.
Yayyyyyy
Put ANDREW on it
This has Albo and LABOR Written all over it .
Spewin
Bottom line RBA has no farking idea about reality full stop
Very good move . Why should they print UK king in Australia. Soon Australia should become a republic
Probably because there wont be any!
Wonderful 💋
It really should be David Boon.
The Australian public should have been asked Not some government minion
vive la république
Republic Labor’s 1st push
That new $5 note looks bloody awful, kindy kids could do better than that! 😕
Now to get The Queen off all our coins and ensure Charles doesn’t appear on them
I suppose we’re getting some leftie woke shit on it instead 🤷🏼♀️
so he is just a TOKEN king
Good. Stuffy old fart
Good. We’re not British
Hardly surprising when it’s been revealed the QC Camilla has been undermining Charles family for decades by leaking stories to the press!
YaY! Since the much loved Liz has left us, it's time for Australia to become a Republic and break away from these slave owners for good.
So is Klaus Schwab going to replace him?
Australia is a beautiful land with unique flora and fauna, it is best to have something related to the land. And it is also time country becomes a republic.
with 30%+ population obesed, new $5 notes should be like
Fantastic news
Would rather have King Charles than a spear rock or boomerang, how embarrassing and ridiculous it will be
more virtue signalling that just re-emphasises we are not actaully doing anything properly about ongoing problems in indigenous society. What about honouring an ethnic Austrlian ie. european migrants who have done SO much to build the country that took them in over last century
LOL....'Consult with First Nations' on the design of the white colonist 5 dollar note. It's clear that woke activists love white colonist inventions....even though they try to incite violence and say they are still at war with us. The irony?
Socialist Albo & Co. continues to undermine the governor-general.
Good decision
Expect Sky to be apoplectic for the next 72 hours with the word ‘woke’ used often. Should be entertaining. How is rowan dean going to spend his $5 in Kmart? 🤭
Klaus Schwab?
It's pointless provocation & virtue signalling. Leave the queen on the $5 note. Biden's proxy war will soon make it worthless and put it out of circulation anyway.
Good
Thank god for that
Charlie who ?
Absolute parasites
Good.
😡😡😡😡
Take note (pun intended) CanadianMint
The only King Charles that should be on our notes.
Racists will be instead
What are they going to put on there? A gay Indigenous person? 🤔🥴
Can we put DanielAndrewsMP and Lindsey Fox’s helicopter on the $10 note
Most do not use cash any more.
Isn’t it time to have a $5 coin. I mean most things cost at least 250% more than they did when the $2 coin was introduced
Disgraceful
Anyone would think there is a conspiracy to remove absolutely all symbols of our Constitutional Monarchy.
One of a series of moves to remove the British monarchy from Australia.
