if people are thinking Australia was invaded, never colonised, then every possoble date is offensive since it has to do woth white mans institutions, whether it be federation, the day aus govt could rule themselves, the day indigenous got the vote etc. these are all dates commemorating parts of the "invaders" society, so how exactly will that make people happy. If lydia thorpe and the "blak sovereignty" folk think everything colonial is bad, then no day will be appropriate (gor them)

im getting sock of this nonsense every year, its all complaint and no solution from the angry "change the date" whiners

Choosing not to celebrate on Australia Day on 26 January does not mean we can’t acknowledge what a great country we live in.

It’s about ensuring we celebrate on a day that is appropriate for all Australians.
