Parkes Phoenix

What do you think of the change in the Australian anthem from ‘For we are young and free’ to ‘For we are one and free’?


Lorraine Parker and Liesel Walters: Lorraine: It’s inclusive and unites us all. Liesel: It’s long overdue as it unites us and brings us all together.

 


George Pratt: It should be left the way it is. They are trying to change too many things, and there are far more important things in the world to focus on.

 

Marg Applebee: It’s fantastic – anything to promote togetherness and reconciliation. Not that this alone will reconcile us, but it’s a step in the right direction.
