i wish we could go without him on ours!

[ToraToraTora]

Well you could always move me old china.

[Untitled]

well this is my country as much as it is yours and my loved ones are here so nah i'll stay and complain thanks and there's nothing you can do about it :)

[ToraToraTora]

...ok but you hate it, so why not go to one you like?

[Hopkirk]

If I was from there, I wouldn't want some foreigner from the other side of the world on my currency.

[Zacs-Master]

You'd be really *** off with the flag then!

[ToraToraTora]

15:36. great but the King is their head of state, so have the guts to become a republic.

[fender62]

bet they would not mind who was on it if they were given a suitcase full of it, no i won't take that million as it's about principle.

[piggynose]

about time, too!!

[Hopkirk]

I was quite surprised that when New Zealand had a referendum, they didn't change their flag.

I don't hate the UK!

[THECORBYLOON]

Why do you say Australia is, "needy"? It's not as if the UK monarch has always been on UK banknotes, is it?

[youngmafbog]

//I don't hate the UK!//

Well reading your constant drivel on here one could be forgiven for thinking you did.

[youngmafbog]

I wonder what the real feeling is in Aus TTT?

A referendum for being a Republic is needed if they are in favour of such rather than the underhand way of removing the King from the Bank note.

And I am a Republican!

[ToraToraTora]

Well YMB I just wish they'd make their kin minds up. If they want to be a republic fine I'd support that decision, but if not, the King is head of state and should be on the dosh.

[THECORBYLOON]

The monarch appears only on the A$5 banknote so what is the big deal with the new King not appearing on any of the denominations?

[Canary42]

Funny how when the Hard Right complain about the state of the UK, it's patriotism to improve the place, but when the Lefties complain it's hate and they should emigrate.

You have stated more than once on here ymb that you dislike the monarchy.
Surely in that case you should be agreeing with Untitled.
As someone who has no problem with King Charles on our currency, I can’t really get worked up about Australia.
Shane Warne would be a better bet ;-)

"...the King is head of state and should be on the dosh."

Why's that then?

[youngmafbog]
