It is my understanding that the issues Banjo P and others have referred to have been put firmly on the back burner for now.

Our PM has boldly stated that in the next cabinet meeting priority will be to resolve the diabolical problem that KFC is substituting cabbage for lettuce in its burgers.

Such terrible times we live in, thank god the real issues are front and centre!

I think Paul1405 and Foxy are old-fart dysfunctionals but others are free to believe what they want.

Foxy said- "I made it clear in my earlier post
about the new government's priorities. A republic is not on their
first term in office. They face many
challenges. Give them time - and see what they do before
jumping the gun and criticizing them. They've only been
in for a few weeks. A republic is not on their agenda
and it may never even happen. It will be up to the Australian
voters to decide. I suspect at a later time when the Queen either
hands over the reigns or passes. It will be a natural progression."

Answer-

It seems that Foxy may be subtly implying that a Republic may be a natural progression.

Well yes- Marx seemingly felt that Communism would be a natural progression from Liberalism too.

Evolution doesn't necessarily evolve in a positive direction but is based on the environment. Much of societies evolution seems to be a result of mass population

Talking about evolution and population?

The story of the British Empire helps to explain
the roots of most British people, white, black,
and Asian.

The empire made them what they are
forming their national identity. A country that doesn't
understand its own history is unlikely to respect
that of others.

This republic nonsense is just one part of the stampede by some people to rid Australia of it's history.

Australia faces many challenges from without and within. But the greatest threat comes from people inside Australia, intent on pulling the fabric of our society apart.

I'm still waiting for one of these republicans to point to a single Republic who's government works so well we should emulate it.

Most countries around the world acknowledge the British system of a constitutional Monarchy is the the best yet developed anywhere. Why the hell would you throw it out to install something far less satisfactory, unless of course you hate Australia.

"Why the hell would you throw it out to install something far less satisfactory, unless of course you hate Australia".

That's right, Hasbeen. If these lefty republican activists don't hate Australia, they are certainly acting as though they do.
