    She shared a series of posts by anti-Australia Day campaigners, the first of which had the words “Australia Day” crossed out, replaced by “Invasion Day”.

    Jesinta Franklin has voiced her opposition to Australia Day for several years. Picture: Instagram. She is the wife of AFL legend Buddy Franklin. “The coming of one race at the expense of another,” the post read. “Will you learn the proper place names of the land you live on? Once you’ve done this, look into events they hold on this date/all year round. Go to them. Surround yourself in the culture.”Finally, Ms Franklin re-posted a graphic that read: “Australia is the only country that marks colonisation as their national day.”

    Can it get more cringeworthy?
