@roseg @james00000001 There has been a Free the Flag campaign for ages. The government has done that. Why is it insidious. Credit where it’s due.

@David_Bonnici @james00000001 In context that makes sense. I hadn’t heard that term.

@roseg it will be his election mantra forget freeing people Morrison freed a flag Kept the old colonial one though

@giddeygirl My favourite is the one you have as a profile photo. So beautiful and appropriate for this ancient and young country.

@roseg That's the wording of the indigenous led campaign which put words on the press release.

@GarrieIrons Ok. Fair call. Thanks.

@roseg @MdmAbsentMinded First Nation artists controlling & earning from their work is the issue. How long till Aboriginal flag beach towels made in China for white companies fill supermarkets next to Aussie thongs? The senate inquiry recommended a FN panel oversee its use but this was rejected. #Flag

@CaptainAdvance1 @MdmAbsentMinded Definitely. The first thing i thought of was board shorts. And I’m in 2 minds. On one hand it’s appalling. But on another, it fits our culture. 🤷‍♀️

@roseg @MdmAbsentMinded i would love to see the aboriginal flag as the australian national flag , but that would solely depend on if our first nation's people would bestow that honor on us

@markbannantyne @MdmAbsentMinded In my opinion any flag representing Australia has to include all of us - Aboriginals, colonisers, immigrants - everyone. It needs to recognise our history as well as our shared future. I like this one the best.

@roseg As a non-indigenous person my concern is the flag, once bought, wasn’t given to an appropriate Indigenous organisation for USE and safe keeping. I have no right to be using that flag/image. WTF was the Govt. thinking of? Now “Mr. Freddy” t-shirts can start making $$. #auspol

@IGsAreGR8 It’s so iconic that it belongs in the public domain. I think that any representation, even on beach towels, will promote Aboriginal culture and the need for reconciliation.

@CatPurry9 Wow what? Am I being too cynical?

@roseg @CaraMia200 always takes the credit for other peoples work ...🙄

@roseg I agree - what a false claim 🤬

@roseg @davidbewart I’m of British background and I find it damned offensive. It was deliberately said, as is everything he utters.

@roseg What rules have been introduced for the respectful use of the Aboriginal flag? The same as for our Australian flag? Or is it a free-for-all?

@roseg @sumerdigital No, you are not harsh. He wants credit for everything, particularly that which he had no control over.
