Conservative politicians are dominating Facebook advertising about changing the date of Australia Day, analysis shows.

After Woolworths announced last week that it would no longer stock Australia Day merchandise due to declining demand, the opposition leader, Peter Dutton, condemned the move as an “outrage” born from the retailer’s “woke agenda” and said most Australians likely thought the same.

Now several conservative politicians are paying for advertisements on social media platforms lobbying against changing the date.

honestly if you're a standing politician you should lose some personal citizen rights where they cause clear confliction. Like purchasing fucking propaganda.

It's a job, your purpose is to serve. I lose the right to call people abject fucking morons on a work call, same for you bitches.
