‘Woke corporate elite’ lecture Australians with ‘loud minority voices’

Institute of Public Affairs Research Fellow Saxon Davidson has slammed the “woke corporate elite” for lecturing Australians with “loud minority voices” about Australia Day. Tens of thousands have gathered to march through Australia’s capital cities – calling for a change of Australia Day’s date. Some protesters waved Palestinian flags and beat drums, while in Canberra, the protests sent Parliament House into lockdown. “The thing with these protesters is they’re actually a loud minority,” Mr Davidson told Sky News host Liz Storer. “We released some polling earlier this week that found that 63 per cent of Australians want to celebrate Australia Day on January 26 – that is an overwhelming majority – and only 17 per cent want any change regarding Australia Day. “They aren’t an overwhelming amount of people to justify any change, and they’re actually being backed up by these woke corporate elite, who got the Voice to Parliament disastrously wrong, trying to lecture us about all of that – and they’re trying to lecture us again with these loud minority voices.”
