It's time for Indigenous people to be acknowledged as the original inhabitants of this country and to have more say in the things that matter to them. #VotingYES
@KosSamaras It's not just a campaign. It's about the pain being felt from increasing costs of living, and trying to do the best thing for the most people in the country
@SuDharmapala In the late 50s we used to recite

I serve the Queen
I salute the flag"

@news_australian It's good to have a day to celebrate all things Australian. But not 26 Jan (Invasion Day) and not with flags with the Union Jack on them!
You know what gets me about the right's dual date and merch culture wars?
People might actually *want* to celebrate Australia Day if we moved it, made it more inclusive.
But no, they insist it stays where it is, and then get mad when many people don't want to celebrate it.
Every news service I follow is filled with doom gloom horror tragedy crime depravity. Is it possible to sign up with #news agency that will solely tell me good things that happen today & suggest ways & means whereby I can do fine deeds. I will happily pay an annual fee.
