'Don't you dare': South Australian govt's decision to remove ANZAC Day slammed

The South Australian government has removed the name Anzac Day and replaced it with '25 April' a day "fixed as a public holiday".

There's no Great Evil conspiracy against consumers within engineering, manufacturing and supply. Just the many tradeoffs incurred to satisfy diverse tastes, priorities and wallets. But first comes all the insatiable Gummint eggsperts, nanny-staters and usual suspects.

It is not just the "South Australian Government" doing it.
Who instigated this? Who is behind it?

They should be personally named and shamed.....

Already a huge backlash here, it won't get up, just another thought bubble from some back room woke idiot. Not only were they targeting Anzac Day,but Christmas Day as well. It was aimed at gazetting all fixed date public holidays, Xmas, Anzac Day, Australia Day by date not by name.

Wow!!! ;D

That's fantastic, except for "She endorsed Deputy Premier Steven Miles as the next premier of the state." :'(

Yeah, I guess there could be a worse choice than him, but I'd struggle to name one off the top of the head! ::)

Sure, I'm not a qlder,  although many mates are and through covid they took a dislike to her & her governments policies.

Funny how she jumped after receiving a $50k pay increase,

Funny how a lot of people took a dislike to all the premiers and their policies during Covid......mainly from the people who thought their liberty was more important than the lives of the vulnerable..

When you see how many people throw a sickie on the pupil free days, I shudder at what will happen in the workforce with school being 4 days a week  ???
