        That was an IPA poll, and they don't think climate change is happening. So it is a joke. #auspol

        Look at who did them and the questions asked. You need to stop being so naive.

        Ah, the right wing IPA who survey 1000 people from right wing strongholds. So only 70% of the right want Australia Day on the 26th.

        If only multiple polls did not show the same result...you may have actually got a point 😉

        The only other poll said a majority did not care when Australia Day is celebrated or even knew why it is on January 26th.

        Find them then. All I know of is this latest RW IPA poll & the recent one where a majority didn't care about Jan 26 or know why Australia Day is Jan 26. So many wrongly think 26th was the First Fleet landing at Botany Bay.

        Poll the same people and give them a choice- the 26 th or any Friday or Monday before a weekend thereby ensuring a long weekend every year. Bet I know which choice comes out in front

        Tomorrow's IPA polls find coal 'tastier than chocolate' and John Howard had 'prettiest ballsack' of any prime minister.
