The left try to make 'their white guilt rub off on us' | Sky News AustraliaAdvance Australia director Liz Storer says the 250th anniversary of Captain James Cook's landing in Australia reminds us how the left tries to 're-write history,' something it does every single Australia Day.\n\nOn Thursday, the Victorian Deputy Chief Health Officer Annaliese van Diemen faced calls to resign after she compared Captain James Cook's arrival to Botany Bay to the current COVID-19 pandemic. \n\nDr van Diemen tweeted, 'Sudden arrival of an invader from another land, decimating populations, creating terror, forces the population to make enormous sacrifices & completely change how they live in order to survive. COVID19 or Cook 1770?'\n\n'What better can we expect from the lefties in Victoria,' Ms Storer said.\n\nShe told Sky News host Chris Smith the left in Australia are 'utterly ashamed, hoping to make their white guilt rub off on us'.\n\nSky News contributor John Ruddick said Dr van Dieman wasn't really attacking Captain Cook, she was using him 'as a metaphor for the whole British Empire'.\n\nHe said of course the British Empire had its issues, but one would 'much prefer to be a developing country that was colonised by the British than (by) the Portuguese, the Spanish, or the French'.\n\nImage: Getty If re-writing history makes it more accurate - then it should be done. Seems the RW drones are somehow afraid of critically analysing history. BunchofSnowFlakes auspol Does Anyone actually care about captain cook 🤣
