I'd rather see it gone altogether.

Same argument every fkn year.
Anyhow Jan 26 is when colony of NSW was founded, so it should be NSW Day if anything (apologies to our indigenous brothers and sisters).
So all you VICs and QLDers etc, GET YOUR OWN FKN DAY !! #auspol

We have John Howard to thank, too, for whipping up the frenzied nationalism of the 26 Jan.

A holiday in July/August instead of January. Yes please! Spread them out a bit.

Those who insist we can't change the date are the ones who really don't care about the date. They only care about being against things that are important to other people (that they don't like).

Yes, imagine changing the date of a public holiday.

So, just when is Easter this year?

(though we do need an end of January public hol just so we know the new year really has started)
