Australians all let us rejoice,
For we are young and free;
We've golden soil and wealth for toil,
Our home is girt by sea;
Our land abounds in Nature's gifts
Of beauty rich and rare;
In history's page, let every stage
Advance Australia fair!
In joyful strains then let us sing,
"Advance Australia fair!"
Beneath our radiant southern Cross,
We'll toil with hearts and hands;
To make this Commonwealth of ours
Renowned of all the lands;
For those who've come across the seas
We've boundless plains to share;
With courage let us all combine
To advance Australia fair.
In joyful strains then let us sing
"Advance Australia fair!"
The original song on which it is based has five verses, but three of these are omitted from the national anthem because they were judged to refer more to Britain than Australia - with some justification, I admit. But I wish we still had more of the spirit of the last verse in operation when I read a story like this:
Should foreign foe e'er sight our coast,
Or dare a foot to land,
We'll rouse to arms like sires of yore
To guard our native strand;
Britannia then shall surely know,
Beyond wide ocean's roll,
Her sons in fair Australia's land
Still keep a British soul.
In joyful strains then let us sing
"Advance Australia fair!"
The left has done its best to get rid of that spirit in Australia. Many of us still have it - but it's no longer the norm.
The only immigrants to this country who should be welcome are the ones who come here wanting to become Australian - not the ones who come here wanting to stay as they were. I'm not saying they should abandon the good parts of their culture where they are consistent with the culture they are joining - but if you can't even stay in the room when the Australian National Anthem is sung, you're not willing to be an Australian even if you want to live here.
If you walk out on the national anthem, keep walking out of the school and head to the airport or a shipping port.
“G’won. Git out.”
When hey walked out, unfortunately they did not walk far enough and right back to where they cam from.
Outlaw Islam
Expel all Muslims
Stop all aid to Muslim lands
Let them keep on walking.
part of being a citizen is that you vow to be loyal to other fellow citizen. Whats the point of allowing ppl into your club if don’t care. Well if they don’t care, I don’t care either
Why would a teacher act like the vanquished and yield Australia to another culture? Are Australians in support of assimilation?
If you do not care whether immigrants assimilate, then you are willing to take a back seat to another culture that is superior to yours. Is that not so?
Tell em to go home.
More and more people all around the world are getting fed up with the muzzies.
Lock the door behind them and let them walk across the border to another country.
See, it says "Cross" there. That's offensive to muslims.
Seriously though, is there anything muslims don't take offense with? /rhetoric
I would like for someone to explain to me the difference between the KKK and Islam....both should be banned as hate groups!!!
Trow them out.
They should have locked the door after they exited.
For your enjoyment this fine Monday morning Judith Dunham and The Seekers: I am Australian; Waltzing Matilda
Start serving pork in every meal.
They should not be living in Australia.
The most deadly threat to Western Civilization is public school teachers.
They have utterly, completely whored themselves out to the globalist agenda.
If we ever actually have concentration camps, the administration of those campus will be by public school teachers.
And every one of them will tell you they are just following orders, and mean it. They are GONE.
