So today, we have an Australian correspondent from Channel Mine Can you hear me, Ken Oathcarn? - Ken Oathcarn! how ya goin'! I'm reportin from Straya, hey! coming live and that, providin' facts on this amazin day when we take a national holiday off from hard yakka and celebrate with barbies, beer, charred tucker mates, eskis, sheilas, the Thorpedo Vegemite, miners, Tony Abbot, short speedos - But... what exactly are you celebrating? - I'll tell ya, Robbo... but first, before we begin I'd like to acknowledge the traditional robbers of this land d'you like what we've done with the place? Ain't it grand?! Yehhh, it all started here in 1788, after Captain Crook discovered this pristine real estate, We were Stray-aliens looking for a place to settle in So we landed in Sydney with the First Fleet of 11 ships it was no-one's land, unpopulated, terra nullius so we built fences, bridges, opera-houses, and deforested made heaps of land for growing LAMBS and, in time since that land was ours we started to mine! mine! mine! And now, regardless of footy-team, creed or ethnic persuasion we celebrate this day as One Nation - Hmm... It seems strange that in order to be a proud Australian you celebrate a British military occupation. - Eh? - Moving on: Aboriginal people - You mean, 'blackfellas'? - Are they included in this day? - Ken oathcarn! - Then tell us, why they name it "Invasion Day" and "Survival Day"? Did it mark the start of war, even genocide - as some say? - Nahhh, we had a peaceful settlement, an Intervention: brought those poor natives blankets, medicines; raised them from the stone age, gave 'em income management and even tried to smooth their pillows to content them That's the Strayian way - so we now enjoy our conquest and worship this altar of flamin' gas with clear consciences We brought the CROWN and TB to this land, cunt And Arnott's Tim Tams - what more could you want? - Well, how about changing Australia Day to a less... offensive date? - Such as? - Any other day would be better to celebrate: How about the date Australia was federated? - January 1st? Mate, on that date, we already get wasted. - How about May 27, then, the day when, back in 'sixty-seven Australians voted in a great referendum in which ninety per-cent of you said, "fair dinkum: Aboriginals are humans too, let's make them citizens." - Listen, Robbo, Straya Day is here to stay. Chrissakes, mate, we already had Sorry Day. And who are you anyway - some pommy poofter, trynna judge me? If you don't like it here, then get the fuck out of me country! Australia! Australia! Straya day! yeah, cunt! Comin' again, to celebrate invasion Straya day! yeah, cunt! Denial is the only way, cunt Refugees, you're fucking screwed, if you try to come into Australia! yeah, cunt! Cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt! This is Ken Oathcarn; reporting for channel Mine, from the Lucky Cunnnnt-ry. Thank you, Ken, you've helped us all to see why this date, and no other has got to be the national holiday 'Australia Day'; it reflects an honest memory of the first day of systematic robbery and denial of the natives' sovereignty on which was built this great settler-colony. To change the day without acknowledging this well... wouldn't that simply be massive hypocrisy? 'Lest we forget' - we often say of our brave heroes. But if we take pride in our ancestors' achievements shouldn't we also recognize their malfeasant ways? 'Til then, I bid you all, happy 'Amnesia Day'
