Hard to imagine a more ScottyFromMarketing move than disappearing whilst Covid-19 breaks out across Sydney (I don’t hold a respirator, mate), to suddenly pop up at minutes to midnight on NYE with this diktat about the anthem. No discussion with anyone (certainly no-one from any indigenous leadership group), just this rebranding exercise. In the meantime the appalling Indue card gets rolled out further, and welfare payments are cut again, further marginalising the already most marginalised in our society.
But as long as the anthem’s inclusive, eh?
