Because the language is so dated.
Conservatives can't think modern so that is why the Libs won't change it.
I plan to read or else listen to this book in 2020
Merry Christmas to my fellow Australians here. Back home after Christmas lunch. Ate too much. Now thinking about having a sleep, as I feel buggered after a three course feast.
Ah, you young people, so cynical!
Merry Xmas everyone!
nah I remember the shitfit they threw in the 2000s when there was talk of changing the anthem.
plus I saw it here where the Conservatives here got shitty over changing the line "in all they sons command" to be more gender inclusive. even though the wording had bee changed a couple times before.
Ah Barnaby so amusing they aired his latest meltdown on the news last night. What's with these people that they have irrational meltdowns?
joyce is a fuckwit. simple as that.
when I spoke to my mum at Christmas found out a little story about one of the videos of rescued koalas that appeared a few weeks.
the husband of my youngest sister's friend is a volunteer firefighter in S.A and he rescued a number of koalas.
He also has a couple of little kids.
When the kids saw the video of daddy with the Koalas they though they were getting some for Christmas

Why is this so hard for the current PM to do?
Bloody Paul Keating and John Howard managed to get financial aid for firefighters that were missing out on normal income from jobs while they were fighting fires.
So why is this so hard for the current PM to do an he shifts the blame onto the states?

That's good
It reached 40.8C in Hobart today - the hottest day ever recorded in December.
Well it's already 2020 in large parts of Oz, as usual Qld's behind the times!
I've been having my usual party of one, but let me stress not a pity party or a party with "me an' me mates" (though substantially true). No, it's just a time to reflect on what has been, and on what is coming. I also get to nibble nice cheeses and dips, on various crackers and chips without censure or interruption.
I watched a doco on Freddie Mercury on SBS, and got to reflect when he was my age, he'd been dead 20 years.
Which brings me to next year's plans. Yes I know, man plans, God laughs, but I'm going to give it a red hot shot. Time is burning (especially Down Here...).
At least one new book. If I have my way and can overcome my inertia, three. It's feasible.
A couple of friends have put together an album of music that requires lyrics and vocals, so that would be coming out under my name as well.
Maybe a book of poetry, thought that can be the hardest stuff to write.
And one movie script is out in the marketplace, I'd like to send a second one and a tv pilot to join it.
You heard it all here first!
Have fun one and all, but safely, and catch you on the flip side.
