Apparently if you find the special golden coin, you and one other get to go visit King Charles’ chocolate factory
I think the chocolate factory closed down when Jeffrey Epstein got arrested.
if you find the special brown coin, prince andrew gets to visit your chocolate factory
Chesterton's fence comes to mind.
Knowing how to think is vastly more important than knowing what to think.
'Don't know, vote no' is a perfectly reasonable position.
Especially in the last referendum in which information was intentionally scarce.
Questions and valid criticisms were ignored or actively dismissed without qualification.
The 'Yes' campaign was a highly emotive but otherwise vacuous, insult to intelligence.
The spectacular failure of which, was a shock only to those with their heads shoved so far up their own echo chambers, independent critical thought seems like an aberration anyway.
The damage they have done is a conversation in of itself.
As a person of indigenous/Irish heritage endorsing the British Monarchy is not something that comes easily or that I would do lightly. But for now, our ties to the UK, even if largely symbolic, provide grounding and checks the power of our government.
Australians are typically moderate and deeply cynical of authoritarianism, bureaucracy and wowsers of any stripe. They aren't the loudest voices in the crowd but they all vote.
Our increasingly bourgeois left-wing is rapidly becoming disconnected from their base, unfit for purpose and ready to self immolate at any moment.
You want as many checks and balances in place as possible during the shift that is well and truly on it's way.
Yes you are right I do not care about the Royalty's as I belief that this is no longer relevant for Australia. We would be better of improving our democracy than fraternising with the idea that there is a Queen or King above us. This does not mean that it is not right for England and having good relation is ever so more important today.
Love how he lights up when he finds the coin
I work at a small store in Perth and I know we have a least 3 chuckies in our float change. Maybe I should grab one just for posterity?
The arrogance of youth!....Typical of the World today,no wonder the World is on a slippery slope..

Re the voice. You say apathy. Perhaps our people voted NOT to divide the country...
no the royals dont cos the uk citizens tax money. the royals generate wealth and that all goes to the government and they get a small percentage of that calculated wealth to pay for everything they do or have.
How long have the King coins been out for, I never even knew he was replacing the queen :)
Here in America I would have just turned in any potential bad coins back in for dollars and then just ask for more coins again XD
Actually expected Australia to become a republic after Lizzy kicked the bucket. It would not surprise anyone 🤷 and it would not have been just Oz either. *Barbados* did it two years ago after all.
Reducing the voice referendum defeat down to apathy is either disingenuous or naive at best mate, especially considering there was significant support early in the campaign... before it turned into a crazy stretch that would upend all of civic law.
There's been some worse Australian awards since Prince Philip
"do you still throw spears at each other?" - I do remember spearings occurring in NT sometime in the 1970's / 1980's - was it really a bad question?
No, it was an entirely reasonable question.
Certain tribal practices are exempt from or have special provisions applied to Australian law.
Spears are used in certain punishment and dispute resolutions that can result in injury or death that would otherwise be criminal under Australian law.
There are many Australians that are unaware of, or would find these practices shocking.
I can't blame Prince Phillip for being curious.
Reconciliation is not dead - but changing the constitution to recognise a distinct group is not good for all. have a voice, have a treaty - parliament can do that - just not via a constitutional change.
Brilliant
You do not have to feel bad for the king.
i reckon charles will be gone by the end of the year :-)
i reckon april will be an interesting month
We can only hope 😂
I am hoping Albo reignites the Republican debate and that we get asked the proper question, instead of the bullsht one the Howard government asked.
Two criticisms. First, apathy is not an emotion. It is the lack of emotion or care. Emotion is also how apathy is most effectively treated. Second, changes to the constitution do not require a referendum. Only the votes of the federal parliament and the state governments are required. Sound undemocratic? It is. But western countries were not created to be democratic, democracy was shoehorned in later.
I do think apathy is a problem. It's an indulgence really. It's a substitute for real courage and hard work
coin loot box had me locked in on the edge of my seat, new hobby unlocked 🔓
The smugness of youth......best of luck......you'll need it.
It's pronounced 'hay-penny'. But otherwise, good clip
Ha'penny
No Crown? The end is near,
Really enjoyed this video thanks Ane
What does the republic minister do, exactly?
Not much, haven’t heard it mentioned again after it was announced. Seems like he was appointed to prove that the government stilled cared about the republic, even if it wasn’t on their agenda.
@@ane_world You should go meet them and ask what they're up to.
Hi can I get a roll of dollar coins?
Hi I'd like to deposit these twenty one dollar coins

Pay more attention to your brush and less on symbolism! Thanks for the video though, didn't know we had a new coin.
