I don't always agree with Lidia Thorpe, but her protest at the King Chuck event definitely hit. (If you missed it - the British King and Queen have been invading our shores lately and there was a fancy reception last week).

But it's kinda depressing that Pod Save the UK's reporting is better than anything I saw in Aus media (will accept links tho!).

Are Brits Not Taught Enough About Our History with Slavery?

For the first time in 13 years Australia's Head of State is actually in the country.

Had they previously been kidnapped and imprisoned by our nation's mortal enemies? Nope

Unjustly exiled to some remote hell-hole? Nope

In a deep coma following a ghastly crown-related accident, and only revived for the sake of the season six plot twist/cliffhanger? Also nope.

It just hasn't been a priority for them for half a generation.

Bring on the Australian republic.

As a citizen of both, I believe #Australia and #NewZealand should ditch the monarchy and become republics. #AusRepublic #NZRepublic #coronation

Later this week Australians are going to be asked to swear allegiance to an unelected hereditary billionaire "king" who lives on the other side of the world and neither sounds nor acts like the vast majority of us, and who makes no pretence about being there for England first. And to a "queen" who gets to be called that only because she is now with the man who carried out an extra-marital affair with her (not being called "queen consort" which is what previous convention dictated).

All of this in a "coronation" costing millions and which in reality is a religious ritual of the Church of England, to which fewer than 10% of Australians even nominally belong.

How can ANY Australian possibly support this?

It's difficult for Australia to be a #secular nation if our head of state is also the head of the Church of England.

There's an interesting interview here with Craig Foster of the Australian Republic Movement on the 'next phase' in Australian government.

Since I've just switched instances, it's time for a new #introduction #introductions #newhere

I am a #software #engineer in #Perth, mostly C/C++ (#CPlusPlus), #Python, learning #Rust and #Golang, dabbled in many others. Interested in image processing, #NLP, sports analytics, with a continuously growing list of side projects which may or may not ever get "finished".

When I'm not doing that I'm a #photographer who occasionally gets paid to shoot #sports events.

And while I have your attention, on a completely different note ...

Australia's Head of State should be an Australian, by birth or by choice.

Any Australian should be able to aspire to be our Head of State.

All Australians should have a say in who is our Head of State
