I really hope it doesn't.......... why can't people just get along on the one day that Australia celebrates all Australians from all walks of life and nationalitiesQuote:

I wish everyone well for tomorrow, & appreciate that celebrating national pride is something worth doing. I would like to celebrate too as I love this country, but I can’t celebrate knowing how offensive it is to indigenous Australians, particularly given that there are plenty of other dates which wouldn’t have the same implications & therefore could be inclusive of all.
and I still feel as a Welshman (being the original Britons) that we are persecuted, firstly by the Romans almost 2000 years ago, then the Anglo-Saxons 500 years later, the Normans 500 years later, then in 2007 when Tony Blair quashed the Welsh appeal to have 1st March as a Welsh bank holiday, we fought for the English in several wars....... when will our anguish ever end???????Quote:

Just for a quick laugh as it was all together. Ernie, Gus, Paul and my favourite Linda then :-)
