- Sky News host Liz Storer says the Adelaide Hills Council needs to “listen to the people” after it banned Australia Day events.
The Adelaide Hills Council originally had planned to consult with the public to discuss whether they should allow Australia Day events again, but then cancelled it after a meeting on Tuesday night.
“This is ridiculous,” she said.
“One of the councillors had to put up a motion to be like ‘you know, maybe we should do our jobs and talk to the people that we’re supposed to be representing - how they feel about banning all events on Australia Day’.
“The rest of the council also elected by those people to represent them said ‘no, don’t give them a voice, we don’t want their opinions, it might turn out to be racist’.”
Any council that refuses to celebrate Australia day without asking the community what they want should be sacked.
Yes, biggest mistake letting them all in. 😳
How dare ANY LOCAL COUNCIL DECIDE FHESE THINGS BEHIND CLOSED DOORS AND WITHOUT CONSULTING THE PEOPLE WHO VOTE THEM IN
You vote them in to speak on your behalf so if they are doing dodgy shit behind closed doors that's what you voted for so enjoy
THEN VOTE THEM OUT.
Ban Australia 🇦🇺 Day .. we will still celebrate it.
Stay out of politics, stick to council work only..
Council, you work for us, not for you to decide on whether we shouldn't ban Australia day?..
Your stepping on a fine line..
Roads, Rates, Rubbish.. that's it.
@@franktully3065 AND they struggle to do those tasks.Same here in S E Queensland.
They make me want to puke in my soup, these pretentious knuckle shufflin' councils.
@@colinmeehan791On the sunny coast we now have former weather girl and socialite Rosanna Natoli as mayor, what a joke!! I foresee huge rate rises for vanity projects
Isn't the council being racist by cancelling Australia Day? UK 🇬🇧
Racist against which race?😊

no australia day events means no council rates to pay
ROADS, RATES , & GARBAGE, that's ALL Councils are entitled to be involved in.....EVER.
Maybe the council should just arrange to pick up the rubbish and build footpaths.
Vote them all out at the next election.
Vote them out. Cheers Rosemary Western Australia 73yrs
We cant now, to many immigrants.
The country we klive in is Australia what is wrong with celebrating that
Not a bloody thing mate. You are damn right, we are Aussies. So it’s a good thing not to celebrate the day our country was invaded by a foreign military and claimed for the king of a foreign land. And to those who feverishly dispute it, take time to think about the actual facts. Most people want to keep Australia Day as Jan 26 as they don’t want the indigenous to win. That is a stupid motive.
What a stupid idea to think Australians want to be devided. The No Vote decided No devision of Australians for Australia.
Sure the king claimed the land , but those naked with tools of sticks and stones fighting over women and food always on the move brought forward to the current century phones cars housing education proud of heritage will not be forgotten by the people of Australia.
I'm english but what I've seen of Australia on the telly & what a wonderful modern beautiful country & all in 200 years! What did the aboriginal population do in the previous 10 thousand years? Let me think, - - - -, duh, NOTHING!
So of course you should celebrate Australia day , your country fought against totalitarian regimes , it owes a huge debt to the people who founded the country, fly your flag with pride you've earned it! I'd raise a glass to Australia & I'm english, a pom, your auld enemy, lol!
Thankyou
Well if were not picked by the best of British judges, we could not have accomplished it!
In fairness to the Aboriginals Jesus did say unto them don't do anything till I come back. 😂
Hey, they invented a Stick.
So fair go Mate.
Sticks don't just grow on Trees.
All council members should resign for being stupid and divisive
I always thought the backbone of the councillors were their voting constituency, what gives these wannabe pollies the right to ignore public consultation!
This council sounds like they need sacking...
note the council members names and dont elect them again.
Next election get rid of them ... Australians are fed up with Australia becoming un Australia. The woke need to go and stop destroying the dood things we celebrate. Its not racist. MY experience is if you push things to hard something has to give , this is lack of respect for Australians and for those nationalised on that day.
The 'woke' are your NEIGHBOURS. All governments on mainland Australia are woke hard left Labor Greens. Welcome to Australia 2024. YOU are the odd one out...
Listening to the people, is not what councils think of doing in South Australia. They go on junkets to foreign land's where dictators rule for ideas of defiance of the people who reside in the state of south Australia .
Councils and councillors should be a voluntary basis the mayor also voluntary and held to the highest laws of the land. Working alongside the people for the people and comunity.
Their hatred for us is obvious.
No, it is contempt for us.
@@user-cd7zu9yl2v either way, you’re fucked
The real problem is now most councillors are attached to political parties. Councils should be independent of political parties to truly represent their community.
Unlawful tier of government
Of course they don't want to talk to their employers, because they will get a massive NO!
Council wouldn't like the answer
Remember those that make these decisions.
Sack all the councillors, they held an oath to The Australian Constitution.
Or are they all Palestinians on the council,
dont pay your rates !
Vote the racist councilers out !!!
SA.......the new VIC!
I get the sentiment but trust me SA are nowhere near Victoriastan
Local councils need.to be abolished,. vested interests and often corrupt.
Ive expensively researched the whole Australia day debate. I discovered that on every day of the year, except 1, somthing occured that may offend a group of people or intividual.
That difinitive one day that nothing of any noteworthy significance occured is the 4th of July. This neglected and historicaly event devoid day could be the opportunity Australians should take to show the world how respectful, honouring and inclusive we are of all people and nations around the world.
Remove this council IMMEDIATELY. They are there to SERVE THE PEOPLE. If they are not going to do that they have NO RIGHT TO EXIST. Stop giving them money.
A question regarding this, so would this mean also Chinese new year celebrations or any other countries day of celebration. not have any events . I doubt it, but it seems to be only Australia Day. If thats the case, why don't those who dislike Australia so badly just leave the country and go to one they love so much.
Reminds me of Scott Morrison when he changed the words to the National Anthem WITHOUT asking the Australian Public.... Australia Day is here to stay and we will ALWAYS celebrate it
Let's think about ex Lib Scott Morrison instead of SA Labor Council.
Nice deflection.
@@lilynazara3809 are you a bit butt hurt finding out that the libs are no different to labor
@@lilynazara3809 NOT a deflection at all... Just telling how stupid Councils and Pollies really are. Just like the idiots in SA that did another referendum on the voice... They NEVER listen to what the VAST majority want. They pander to a tiny minority...
At least with Scmo you were allowed to exhibit national pride on Australia day.
@@user-cd7zu9yl2v But you are more than happy he changed the national Anthem??
Australia 🇦🇺 Day leave alone.. The 18th of January when Captain Philip Arthur arrived in Australia 🇦🇺
If the council is not acting in good faith, don't pay your rates. Go to council meetings become more active in your local communities - stop electing these banal officials. They are public figures, record what they say in council meetings, ask them hard questions based on facts - relay what is said to your friends and relatives, post it to social media. If they are bad faith actors they will expose themselves.
If they cancel it, then every single person should congregate on council land and celebrate Australia Day, with gusto. Be loud, be proud, be patriotic and make sure the council have some cleaning up to do the next day. This will send a clear message of what the people want.
Do it before the actual day though, since the actual day is a public holiday and no one would be there... Organise a BBQ and lots of flags and stuff. Get the local high school music students down to play a string of iconic Australian music like Land Down Under, Great Southern Land and obviously the national anthem... Probably skip songs like You're The Voice and Beds Are Burning to avoid confusing people about what you're there for.
Gather on mass around council chambers and protest and
demand their resignations on Australia Day.
Once again marks ism at its dog best or worst.
Build a mosque bring in some more non Australian speakers change all your street names to foreign languages and then alienate and belittle all the locals who disagree.
To many polies seem to think their Job is to decide things, they seem to have forgotten that the only reason we have them is to go out and do what we the people want, even if they themselves don't agree or support it. As soon as you take this type of position you give up your right to decide anything, your there to enact the will of the people and not some tiny fraction of the people, the majority of the people.
I am so sick of things like this where someone who is supposed to be doing what they were told gets confused and decides to do what they want, we the people tolerate it so we don't have to take on the responsibility personally I guess.
Councils are not an example of democracy in action. The people don’t vote for issues, they have a tiny quorum that make decisions which can be far reaching in the secrecy of Council Committee meetings. The people have no say on what goes on. Time for a complete overhaul of the council system.
Residents need to Rise Up!🤬
VOTE WITH YOUR PATRIOTIC HEARTS AT THE NEXT COUNCIL ELECTIONS!
❤️🇦🇺🦘
The only people to blame are those that chose not to vote and then complain put forward candidates that are like minded then vote for them it’s that simple
Gee, sounds like a "threat to democracy" to me.
Do they realise Adelaide is named in tribute to a British Queen.
Don't remind then, now there will be a call to change the name because it's racist
When is the next council election..ill be voting for new members.
LEFTISM 👿👿😈😈
ALT leftism.
Australia is slowing becoming a Authentictic country with woken people doing underhanded in dismissing days which are regarded as a time to celebrate our achievements in Australians 🇦🇺 from when the first fleet came. To do what they done shows they no 💯 respect for past achievements from the early settler in creating this country .
What the f uck, they ba nd Australia day events?
Bogan's Day with the Chinese having a laugh about selling them products made there! The sooner we get over this madness, the better!
So.... democratic process is racist but deciding not to celebrate a culturally important day for the majority in order to appease an small minority is not?? 🤷♂️🤦♂️
Councils and Government either state or federal are elected by the taxt payers , its time they remembered that .
Yes, it’s ridiculous- absolutely so.
Power corrupts, absolute power, corrupts absolutely.
Unfit for purpose.
Sack them.
Who votes for this Stalinists?
It MUST cover the broad spectrum of ‘communities’.. ya know, REPRESENTING ALL..😊.. and I mean ALL.. incl Anglo communities!😊
By the way, if the majority of the people were 'racist', your job is to represent them, NOT your own ideas. It's called democracy. Oh, and you have councilors, here in Golden Plains Victoria I don't know that we have. If so who are they?
The thing i don't get is , the council people celebrated Australia day all their life too , in council, so why when in the job only. So i call that racist towards Australians.
I will always celebrated Australia day, because Australia would not be what it was, till Labor now.
We convict heritage are proud what they turned Australia in to, and even the indigenous have a better country now, apart for the ones in politics, never satisfied.
I believe no council should have that right to ban a national holiday, that should be up to no one , rather racist towards the people of Australia.
What next ? .. Don Dunstan Day .. were we must wear pink safari suits .
Cultural Marxism 101 get rid of patriotism
Like the voice NO but you did it anyway and fell flat on your face!
Has this Adelaide Hills council got links to Kim Jong Un? Total Wankers.
Just more bs to stir the pot
The people voted for them did they not?
To remove the rubbish and fix the roads .
Sounds like our bosses at Linfox,ask us workers for opinions once they've stuffed things up.
