Patriotism under threat on Australia Day

By Sean Litchfield - posted Tuesday, 6 February 2018


Unfortunately, they didn't have an answer to either question, and suggested that they were going in a different direction to me.

Some advice to my indigenous brothers and sisters: Be careful in choosing your allies, as they could have their own agenda and may not have your best interests at heart. By keeping such company you may unwittingly drive into the arms of the conservatives those who haven't yet made up their minds.

And to my fellow patriots: Don't wear a shirt with an Australian flag on it, even a tiny one, or you may start a riot. And don't represent your country - it's offensive.
