Of course views all mine. All without prejudice. Just a regular chap after all. Oh...and RT's may equally imply ridicule as endorsement.

    A 9yr old girl given detention, threatened with suspension and now politicians are calling for her to be expelled... all for having & expressing an opinion? And not an entirely unreasonable opinion at that. WTF is going on down under? Get a grip.https://www.indy100.com/article/australian-girl-sit-national-anthem-nine-year-old-school-expelled-8537346 …

        There is no requirement for a civilian to stand for the Australian national anthem. Finally enough, no one mentions that.

        Well I'd hope not. That would be more indicative of a dictatorship than a democracy. Not that it's preventing some from trying to dictate anyway, by the sounds of things. What's the public reaction to this story down there?

        Storm in a tea cup here. Typical media using this rubbish as a smokescreen...probs covering up that we've got another new PM 😎

        Ha! Look over here, not over there? How depressingly familiar. Not that the poor 9yr girl old will suffer any less as a result of knowing that.

        Agreed. She's just collateral damage to them. Not sure I know this country anymore. Moved back after 20yrs in London; it's a parochial backwater & getting worse.

        Aren't we all? It just seems even more cruel when they start on 9yr olds. I always hoped my impression of Aussies as straight-talking and bold would keep a check on such things. Dishing out a few reality slaps where required to stop it in its tracks. So much for hope...

        You're right, we were renowned for calling a spade a feckin shovel! Now, we're more like America. So much more. There an immense fakeness about life here now. It's quite surreal.

        I'm sorry to say, but I feel the same about here. The problem these days is becoming a question of where do you run away to? It's permeating the world. And where it hasn't, they bomb.

        Her parents must be proud. She will be a human rights lawyer one day

        Be ironic if she ended up prosecuting some of the Human Rights violations she's calling out. Might even have some of those calling for her to be cast out on the other side of the courtroom with luck. So proud...

        The human rights act ignored in this case. She has the right of free speech and think for herself and form her own political opinions. In a democracy others can't force their thoughts on others or bend people to their will. Fascists try and do that.
