Anzac day

And the band played Waltzing Matilda

Counter terrorism measures in full flow in Coogee.

You stand for a flag with a union jack.

Come in spinner

How many people has that union flag butchered?

Hard to tell, is there anywhere that keeps track?

You are a citizen of a country whose flag has a union jack. Must be proud.

Did you lose loved ones at Gallipoli? My condolences…

You stand under the butchers apron.

Bizarre line to take for a Cork man.

Happy ANZAC Day everyone.

Just home from a truly poignant Dawn Service from Coogee Beach. Lest we forget. Will get the breakfast on shortly before the serious bidness of 2up starts later in the morning.

2up me hole. Should be called 1 up day.
How can I get one up on the next lad by showing off how patriotic and Aussie I am by glorifying war and banging on about how aussie servicemen (we ignire the wonen, doesn’t fit into the narrative) saved the world.
You spat on them and treated them like shit when they came back from war and continue to do so.
$500 million for an extension on the War Memorial (now sponsored by a weapons manufacturer, I kid you not) a showroom for millitary hardware. But fuck all to help kids you sent off to kill innocents in Afghanistan and Iraq.
This country is pathetic.

A wonderful commemoration that should always be remembered. Their sacrifice for their King and Country and Empire in repelling and defeating Kaiser and Sultan will never be forgotten.

Would you not think of leaving then mate?

A sure sign of a country with no culture when it jumps on the militarism bandwagon.
