Australia is removing British monarchy from its bank notes

[Guno צְבִי]

The nation’s central bank said Thursday its new $5 bill would feature an Indigenous design rather than an image of King Charles III. But the king is still expected to appear on coins that currently bear the image of the late Queen Elizabeth II.

Australia is debating to what extent it should retain its constitutional ties to Britain.

Australia’s Reserve Bank said the new $5 bill would feature a design to replace the portrait of the queen, who died last year. The bank said the move would honor “the culture and history of the First Australians.”

Hugh Jackman Predicts Australia Will Break from British Monarchy


Australian actor Hugh Jackman thinks Australia will become a republic "at some point"—which means removing King Charles as head of state.

Speaking to the BBC this past weekend, Jackman said he thinks such a move "feels inevitable" and a "natural part of evolution of a country."


"The Elizabethan era is now over and it’s time for us to move into the Australian era,” Matt Thistlethwaite, Australia’s assistant minister for the republic, told Time in October 2022 "We are a nation of close to 25 million people. We make our own decisions. We have our own form of government, our own culture and identity, and I think that Australians are ready for the conversation about reflecting that in our constitution and appointing one of our own as our head of state."

Are you saying you're a racist fuckwit, drug addict or Pedo Don fan, or are you saying you actually care?
I'm confused.

Australia also continues on in its project of removing freedom from its people.
