As a citizen of both, I believe Australia and New Zealand should ditch the monarchy and become republics. #AusRepublic #NZRepublic #coronation

👏 Australian Republic Movement Co-Chair Craig Foster has condemned the audacious pledge Australians will be asked to make to King Charles on Coronation day. Learn more: https://republic.org.au/media/coronationpledge #democracyNOTmonarchy #AusPol #AusRepublic

Later this week Australians are going to be asked to swear allegiance to an unelected hereditary billionaire "king" who lives on the other side of the world and neither sounds nor acts like the vast majority of us, and who makes no pretence about being there for England first. And to a "queen" who gets to be called that only because she is now with the man who carried out an extra-marital affair with her (not being called "queen consort" which is what previous convention dictated).
All of this in a "coronation" costing millions and which in reality is a religious ritual of the Church of England, to which fewer than 10% of Australians even nominally belong.
How can ANY Australian possibly support this?

👑 It’s no surprise Australians aren’t interested in the coronation of King Charles – the British Monarchy does not and cannot represent modern Australia and our values.

Growing up we were over-saturated with images of The Queen. There was a framed image in every classroom & office. Until the death there still was in local govt Council Chambers & in houses of State & Federal govt. Early primary school we still sang & played the durge 'God Save The Queen'.
Australia firmly identified itself as a Colony of the British Empire, especially in NSW.
A firm message is being sent around by not having Charles on the $5 note.
It gives some hope & horrified others scared of change, scared to cut the apron strings.
The time is NOW to assert our independance, before we get too entrenched in the propaganda.
#AusRepublic with the PM role as also Head of State. There is no need to replicate an outdated model.

💬 What are you doing on Monday night? Join Chair of the Australian Republic Movement, @Craig_Foster , at 9.35pm AEDT, on @QandA . #AusPol #AusRepublic
Happy Republic Day, India!
One day, I'm sure, Australia will have the strength to join you.
It's difficult for Australia to be a #secular nation if our head of state is also the head of the Church of England.
There's an interesting interview here with Craig Foster of the Australian Republic Movement on the 'next phase' in Australian government.

🙌 MOST AUSTRALIANS WANT TO CUT TIES WITH THE MONARCHY. A recent survey by Ipsos has revealed that more than half of Australians (54%) agree our nation should end its formal ties with the British Monarchy. #AusPol #AusRepublic

👑 When Charles took the throne, the Australian Governor-General, David Hurley, promised that you, a citizen of Australia, would be obedient to the new King. Yikes! Get involved with the campaign now: http://www.republic.org.au/start #AusPol #AusRepublic

👎 A big royal no: we deserve an Australian as our Head of State. #AusPol #AusRepublic
