The ABC Causes Outrage Over ‘Invasion Day’ 25/01/21

The ABC has been accused of dividing the nation by referring to Australia Day as “Invasion Day” in an online guide for events happening on January 26. Bureaucrats have left the door open for controversial pop-up cycleways around Sydney to remain permanently, drawing renewed outrage from community groups furious over a lack of consultation. It began as a fun concept about Blue Heeler dogs by a Brisbane father six years ago and today, children’s TV show Bluey has become a global phenomenon. And in sport, it’s 40 years next Monday since former Australian cricket captain Greg Chappell instructed brother Trevor to bowl the underarm delivery to New Zealand’s Brian McKechnie, when the visitors needed six runs off the final ball of the match to tie a 50 over game against Australia at the MCG.
