I think we are saying the same thing.. the noisy ones will be around for either decision.. they will be either protesting that it should stay the 26th (if it were to be changed), or protest that it is the 26th as invasion day… the fact that it goes away the day after makes it an easier decision for the government of the day.. they just have to wait it out.

I don’t care which, I don’t celebrate other than enjoying the public holiday. If I could swap it for my birthday off, I would do that :0)

yeah.. I couldn't give a toss about Australia day either way. If there is anything we can all agree on, its to make it two days
