Hi Pete,

Awards at the best of times are dubious, the gay hating and divisive Margaret Court has been given another honour. What for, sure she was great at outdoor ping-pong, and what else promoting division and hate in society, what else has she done? The establishments conservatives see the dolling out of these trinkets to underlings as a show of strength on their part, indicating to the greet unwashed who is boss and who is running the show.

Kerry O’Brien has rejected the Australia Day honour he was due to receive on Tuesday in protest at the “deeply insensitive and divisive decision” to give the country’s highest award to former tennis great Margaret Court.

As pointless as these awards are, the people rejecting them are hypocrites because of their intolerance to different views.

individual,

Their actions are only as pointless as your existence.

Dear individual,

They are being intolerant of intolerance. Doesn't that make you hypocritical on this?

It's been a nice change that this entirely pointless post on whether or not non-Australians should be awarded Australia Day gongs (it doesn't get much sillier than that) has been the only whine about Australia Day in the Forum.

The same happened last Christmas: hardly any sanctimonious waffle about how commercial Christmas is - blah, blah, blah - and atheists talking absolute crap on a subject they no nothing about.

Hopefully, the same will happen this Anzac Day.

Australians are, perhaps, at last sick and tired of hearing the same disruptive, disrespectful bullshite about themselves and their country spread about year after year. They just want do want they want to do, and to hell with the nasty bastard Lefties who want to stop them.

"All-female cast of winners take out Australia Day awards", blares the Sky News headline.

All people most Australians have never heard of - as usual, plus another put down to white males.
