Lol public holiday.

His birthday is 14 November. Just shows how meaningless it is.

Not sure why people would think the date would change when the weekend wasn't on the Queens birthday as it was April 21.

Whi are these experts . Klaus? Perfect timing for the great reset

Going have to get used to call it the King's birthday.

Wow, thanks for that scintillating news 😳

I’m preparing to trade in the Public Holiday to become a republic.

Why isn't either one celebrated on the actual day?
