        I have a dream to one day find a green movement or political party that likes to focus on environmental issues.

        A Public Holiday should be declared on the date in which Di Natale is thrown out of Parliament! This total imbecile is trying to rewrite Australian history, & to divide, not unite the country! There’s a new communist party in town under the guise of the nutty Greens...!!!

        The Greens are no longer a political party. They have become nothing but a activist group always looking for something to protest and favour political correctness over intellectual honesty .The one good thing that'll come of this is their demise will come so much quicker now.

        Lets make April 1st Invasion Day or Politically Correct Day for the whole nation, as a Greens Party initiative reflecting their true level of support in the community.

        If you think 1788 was just an invasion hand your land back to aborigines and emigrate. It is the only just thing to do.

        Definitely NOT. NO CHANGE. Australia Day, 26 January, represents the day when the Aborigines were brought into contact with advanced civilisation. Greatly to the benefits of the Aborigines. The Aborigines not only have Captain James Cook to thank for, but ultimately ...

        this is a poor effort at finding relevance and again they fail. Time they used facts not feelings or emigrate

        If only we critically thought about what it would be like today, if it didn't happen and a neighbor colonized this great southern land. That said, it's a pity the Dutch didn't stay!
