I think replacing the stars with blowflies would be appropriate

could be onto something there.

Replace the federation star with a thunderbox and you end with something like this

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Complete overhaul needed.

As it stands, it basically says we are British.

so is canada's, but it is instantly recognisable

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.

So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Would like to see our Coat of Arms on our flag instead of the Union Jack

Green and gold is crap.

South Africa,Brazil......etc

Imo, a kangaroo is a low iq representation of a floundering nation.

Australia could learn from NZ AND ITS ACCEPTANCE AND ACKNOWLEDEMENT of their indigenous history.

Oz must replace the rubbish stars in the top left corner with
with the aboriginal flag.

Get it right

Absolutely agree with this.

Need to incorporate the entire indigenous flag, or at least the colours.

And our famous green and gold.

I would also REALLY like to change our national anthem. I find our current one boring, just kinda drones on.

'I Am Australian' is a great song, fun to sing along to, uplifting, acknowledges our British/convict roots as well as our indigenous population.

Who is it we (Australia) owe a trillion dollars to?

http://barnabyisright.com/resources-articles/who-owns-our-debt/

You don't get rules by war  , you get rules economically

Who owns that 73% foreign debt...

cares




Yes, why worry about who we owe a trillion dollars to

When there are the big questions at play like what colours should we paint the stupid flag

Remarkable
