Day 27 cont ⚫️🟡🔴 Colours 🇦🇺

“#PeterDutton 🥔🤓 (#LNP, #Liberal, #Coalition, #Nationals) says he wants welcome to country ceremonies respected even as he reaffirms his push to unite #Australians under “one flag”.

🥔🤓 made the comments after disruptions at #AnzacDay services and the sudden cancellation of a welcome to country ceremony at a major #NRL match in #Melbourne.

The #MelbourneStorm is facing criticism after it informed #Wurundjeri elder #AuntyJoyMurphyWandin she was no longer needed to perform the welcome to country ceremony at the club’s annual #AnzacDay clash at #AAMI Park against South Sydney on Friday night.”

Across the street at the #MCG the welcome ceremony was performed for the #AFL ANZAC clash with Essendon verses Collingwood.
