I agree on both points. Keep religion in churches for those who attend; it is not appropriate anywhere else.
I cringe everytime I hear pledges to the king, who has nothing to do with our country and this needs to be removed as soon as possible from all levels of parliament in Australia.
And while we are at it, aren’t we one country? Is it not time to have a look at the massive overuse of “acknowledgement of country” before sport and other events?
