Plans to axe Anzac Day dawn service labelled a ‘disgrace’Tony Abbott has added his voice to mounting anger at the Government’s decision to axe the Anzac Day dawn service at the Australian National Memorial at Villers-Bretonneux. I’d expect them to hold the ceremony at a time where they would get the highest attendance Well whoever made this decision, for any reason, has just insulted everyone who worked hard to honour these men, from the man who donated the land and the people who exhumed the soldiers for their families. Disgusting.

Territorians pause for 77th anniversary of the bombing of Darwin | Sky News AustraliaDarwin residents have paused to remember the 77th anniversary of the first wartime attack on Australian soil.\n\nThe early morning of February 19, 1942, marked the beginning of a years-long bombardment which continued across northern Australia until November 1943. \n\nAbout 200 people were killed on the first day. \n\nThis year, a plaque has been unveiled which immortalises members from the 2nd and 13th RAAF Hudson Bomber Squadrons who died during World War II.\n\nImage: News Corp Australia \n\n\n\n Right Wingers wanted Australia to be taken over by the Japanese all the way to Brisbane on Churchills direction.... A LABOR P.M said No Way and we fought them keeping them from our shores. Thanks ALP for not bowing to those the right wanted to bow to. billshortenmp C'mon Bill. We need a Royal Commission into the bombing of Darwin. Write another letter to the PM and then have a press conference to tell everyone you did it. No. Japan wasn't thinking at all of bombing Pearl Harbour nor about Singapore etc... USA had a non-interventionist policy, Churchill wanted USA to enter the war & fight Germany. He fed info to Sempill who fed info to Yamamoto, who then lobbied for Japan to bomb Pearl Harbour.
