    Posted in The Lounge » Will Australia ever become a Republic?

    Of course it's obvious why she said this just before her term is up. She should be sacked for saying that we should be a republic, especially when she is representing the monarch, at the moment, a queen.

    If she believes that, then why on earth (mind if I almost yell?) did she take the job?

    But isn't it interesting, if this subject was reversed, and she said that Australia needs to remain a monarchist country, that it would NOT even make the news. And it would be ignored completely by the Australian Biased Channel.

    And the title is incorrect. It should be say "Australia's Governor General is a hypocrite as she believes we should be a republic" or "Australia's GG stabs her boss in the back with republic comments"

    To put it simply, Australia had a referendum and was asked the question, and the overwhelming majority voted NO (repeat NO) to a republic. And look at the strife being a republic causes. EG: Look what the republicans tried to do to the USA.
