“The Australia Day date must never change!” declares white man who is still traumatised by the Coon Cheese rebrand
January 23, 2025
SET IN HIS WAYS: As Australian Day approaches, one Brisbane man is doing everything he can to ensure his voice is heard, as he does every year around this time.
“The date must always remain January 26,” says Steve Waters. “It’s our basic civil right to celebrate Australia Day on the day of British invasion.”
Australia is considered the only country that celebrates its national day on the date that marks the beginning of its colonisation.
And while many Australians support changing the date, Max Riley says it goes one step too far.
“We’ve already had to endure the re-brand of Coon cheese,” says the father of two. “Australia’s entire culture is being dismantled piece by piece.”
“We need to return to the White Australia Policy!”
