JohnRuddick2 Invasion day ? Australia has experienced 3 invasion days. 1 on foot. 2 by boats. And in 1942 a failed invasion by Japanese boats and aircraft Credlin outsiders

JohnRuddick2 Bullshit most use it as excuse for a pissup

JohnRuddick2 Bet you cant find a NPC in the comments, NOT involved in GetUp or Sleeping Giants. Lefty Dogpiles are not popular opinions.

JohnRuddick2 75% of 1000 people, not 25million nobface.

JohnRuddick2 Looks like it’s already all been said you knobs. Bullshit poll

JohnRuddick2 My Australian flag will be flying proudly on the back of the ute

Polliwatch JohnRuddick2 The Cultural Marxists are RUNNING SCARED Good on yah mate,,from England

JohnRuddick2 The lives of Indigenous peoples have been made immeasurably better since the first fleet arrived. Except for those who choose to drink alcohol to excess, smoke, eat a poor diet etc etc etc. Simple as that.

JohnRuddick2 We haven’t

JohnRuddick2 A poll conducted by the IPA which is run by right wing nut jobs is NOT a true indication of what Aussies think about invasion day - an IPA 'poll' can safely b IGNORED

JohnRuddick2 This would have to be the least objective poll in Australian history. It offers no respect for Aboriginal people. Let's follow the New Zealand example and sign a treaty with first Nations people and respect the sacrifices made by them. Fake history doesn't help to bridge the gap.

JohnRuddick2 Nutjobs on sky

JohnRuddick2 Who do you think you lot are kidding? that poll was a bullshit IPA of 1000 carefully chosen people... stop telling lies to people no wonder you dont have many viewers as people dont like been constantly lied to!

JohnRuddick2 You clown....I don't know what circles you move in. It's a day off from work...nothing more.

JohnRuddick2 71% of IPA whack jobs.

JohnRuddick2 about time we made burning of the Australian flag or any flag a criminal offence because that is all you people in the media will show on the day are fr left extremists setting fire to the flag because we will never have socialism

JohnRuddick2 poll taken by the IPA, i think we can safely ignore it!

JohnRuddick2 A silly poll taken by a conservative bunch of right wing blokes is not a reason to stay with a day that has no meaning.

What do Australians think about Australia Day this year?Every year Australians debate over whether to celebrate Australia Day on January 26, so we asked our audience on Facebook Messenger for their thoughts. We only debate about Australia day because the liberal divisive media makes it an issue. If u just shut up we wouldn't care Had a great day celebrating Australia ‘the land’ and it’s beautiful scenery, flora and fauna. Love the land, love the people. The only negative - the whiners.

Darebin mayor: we are not anti-Australia Day, just not on January 26Comment: Scott Morrison's plan to hold citizenship ceremonies on Australia was, at best, a bizarre and pointless missive. At worst, a public relations stunt designed to further divide this country and stir the dying embers of a culture war Australia Day is when our citizenship ceremonies occur. This is Australia Day, the day we celebrate the birth of our Colony, anyone who doesn’t want to celebrate it can leave

Australia Day wasn’t always celebrated on January 26Many are horrified at the idea of moving Australia Day but the truth is, it hasn’t always been celebrated on January 26. Why don’t we make it the 9th December when marriage equality came into law? JonDeeOz The Annual Conversation

Poll shows majority of the nation wants Australia Day unchanged | Sky News AustraliaA new national poll has found the overwhelming majority of Australians want to keep Australia Day on January 26, with 71 per cent opposed to a date change.\n\nThe poll, commissioned by conservative lobby group Advance Australia, follows Prime Minister Scott Morrison's announcement that local councils will be stripped of their citizenship ceremonies if they do not hold them on Australia Day. \n\nMany reject the current date, which they argue represents the 'invasion' of Australia by the First Fleet. \n\n\n\n GerardBenedet 'Political Correctness' is a term the right use because they'd look stupid if they attacked manners, respecting others and being kind. GerardBenedet Its history actually. We weren't Australia before Jan 1, 1901 so Oz Day should accurately reflect that. Jan 26 is important in our history but does not signify the date we became a nation. If such a change also eases some Aboriginal grievances, all the better. GerardBenedet It’s a Rupert Murdoch effort to divide the nation and create sales for himself. Just like his war on Christmas! Remember we are talking a bloke who hacks dead kids phones and taunts her grieving parents with text messages, just so sick Rupert could roll in more cash. auspol

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)
