Melbourne has ‘lost’ Australia Day by axing parade

Sky News host Rowan Dean says Melbourne has “lost” Australia Day which has sparked outrage from many people. Many of the left have been campaigning for years to change the date of Australia Day, calling the national holiday ‘Invasion Day’, with Victoria quietly axing its parade on the national holiday. “Jacinta Allan’s looking around going ‘oh what are we – I don’t know, we forgot to mention it to anybody’,” Mr Dean said. “This is a deliberate strategy by the hard left in this country. “The game was given away when Stephen Smith … before Christmas said ‘oh we won’t be celebrating Australia Day’, this isn’t accidental, this is deliberate.”
