Albo saying that people claiming spots on beaches with cabanas is "unAustralian" but I reckon landing on a beach and staking territory that isn't yours is the most Australian thing I've heard of

He's pretty relaxed about Gaza sporting Israeli cabanas, maybe that's what Dreyfus is heading over for...setting up an Aussie posi to prove we're all for a fair go for Israel.
I’d disagree and say it’s a English thing dragging some of my Irish ancestors here in chains making them work denying indigenous Australians lived here
Certainly the most British, and isn't that how the country was founded?
(Ignoring the 60,000 years or so that the First Nation peoples were here prior)
It is now on some beaches but has never been before in my lifetime until probably the last 10 yrs. I grew up on the beach & nobody did that, we each had a lot of extra space around us. But now there is overcrowding on all of Sydney's speeches & the ppl who use tents 2 claim a large area are pigs.
I’m in Adelaide so the heat/sun is brutal in summer so bringing a beach tent has always been a common thing, but our beaches aren’t particularly overcrowded (being we have 25% the population of Sydney)

Different take. It's okay but yours was sharp and, given it's January, timely.

4.3 Million Dollar Mansion on the beach = Extremely Australian.
It's simple.
And if it isn't that, then it's a Toyota Landcruiser with 4 kids and 3 dogs in the back
Nothing more Aussie
