👋 As the King and Queen of Australia depart after a whirlwind tour of Sydney and Canberra, the Australian Republic Movement’s ‘Farewell Oz Tour’ campaign has attracted strong national and international interest in Australian democracy, questioning the relevance of the monarchy for today’s richly diverse Australia.
Co-Chair Esther Anatolitis said: “With thanks to our tens of thousands of Australian Republic Movement members and supporters – alongside Australians all over the continent and all over the world – we’ve invigorated an important nation-building conversation. We’ve responded to global media in multiple languages, all asking why we’re not yet a republic.
“With crowd numbers very low compared to past royal tours, the vast majority of Australians confirmed that they continue to see the monarchy as irrelevant to modern Australia.
“With the global spotlight on Australia, what we’ve overwhelmingly found is that Australians don’t see their home as a British realm; it’s time to wave goodbye to royal reign.”
Co-Chair Nathan Hansford said: “King Charles and Queen Camilla were met with warm Australian hospitality, embracing our sunshine, humour, and unique spirit. They’ll always be welcome, but next time, we believe they should visit as respected dignitaries, greeted by an Australian Head of State – a true reflection of our modern, independent country. It's time we step confidently into the future, with a head of state who embodies our values, aspirations, and the vision we have for Australia’s place in the world.
“An Australian Head of State will be there in times of celebration and heartbreak, helping to unify and strengthen our democracy, as well as driving our economy and jobs by promoting Australia around the world. In doing so, they will make Australia an equal on the world stage: a republic is about putting the power in the people’s hands to choose their leaders and to hold them to account.
“As the King flies off to meet the Commonwealth Heads of Government, it’s a good reminder that of the 56 nations in the Commonwealth, only 15 still call Charles their King – the vast majority of Commonwealth nations are republics.
“What’s clear after the visit is that Australia’s ready for a conversation and we pledge to include all Aussies in the discussion to build the people’s model for an Australian republic – not ARM’s, not the Government or Parliament’s, but the people’s.
“Now is your opportunity to get involved. Join the conversation at republic.org.au or on our social media. Together, we can strengthen our democracy and level the playing field for our nation.”

All state Premiers decline invitation to official welcome reception for King Charles. Good. They have real work to do. Charles is Aust's Head of State by birthright alone - an arcane dynastic inheritance that has no place in a modern democracy #auspol mol.im/a/13955929

Musk is SUPRESSING the STAGED assassination posts. What used to get 20k to 30k avg. likes, now doesn't even get 1k. And it's because it's NOT BEING SEEN. Please like and retweet. I am determined to keep this story alive until we get some ANSWERS!!
STAGED Assassination attempt question #449: WHAT is with those so-called Secret Service "Agents".
One of the most curious scenes to come out of the event was the behavior or lack thereof by the Secret Service Agents on duty that day. The glaring breach of protocol, especially allowing the "target" to stand tall with his fist in the air, while the active shooter event was still ongoing. The strange obsession with the shoes and hat. The towel tucked into the jacket. Ignoring reports identifying someone of "suspicion". The CASUAL way they allowed the shooter to get into position, take aim and FIRE. All feeds into the possibility that at least a FEW agents were in on the plan to defraud the American People.
The identities of these agents have never been publicly disclosed. Over a month after the event, it was announced that at least five agents have been placed on "modified duty" after the attempt in July. They include the special agent in charge of the Pittsburgh field office and three other agents assigned to that office, which was responsible for the security planning ahead of the July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. However, only ONE of the five agents was assigned to trump’s protective detail that day. WHY ONLY ONE?
Then there's this. Just TODAY, a high-ranking Secret Service official with more than 26 years of federal law experience announced he will retire from the agency, months after the "assassination attempt". Michael Plati, the Assistant Director of the Office of Protective Operations, is a member of the Senior Executive Service. He leads operational divisions that reduce risks at protected events or to protectees. That includes leading the teams in charge of planning for the protection of trump, President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and more. Reports were that Plati had been considering retiring from his position in the agency for months. But the timing of his retirement, in concurrence with the July 13 shooting at a trump rally in Butler seems MORE than coincidental. The agency and its leaders have been under intense scrutiny since the shooting. You recall, amid calls to step down, the former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle abruptly resigned.
CLEARY something is amiss at the Agency. Top Level Heads are stepping down left and right, yet NOBODY has been fired. And the closer we get to the truth, the closer we will get to finding out who those "Photo-Op" agents REALLY were, what they knew and whether or not they were in on trumps STAGED plan. I say they were on the TAKE all the way!!
