  1. I mean a public holiday is nice, but if Minns thinks that getting the masses drunk for a day will put him in a more favourable light after his bootlicking of Israel, the cops and restricting our democratic freedoms, he is wrong.

  2. Is there another source for this? Cause I haven’t seen it elsewhere and I don’t want to get my hopes up

  3. The volume of negative correspondence must have reached a high level of he is trotting this out. Buying public favour.

  4. But will people have the shit kicked out of them if they go out for the public holiday? Because peaceful protests got that treatment. Is he declaring it a major event so that police can just lay hands on people for no reason..?

    We’re not getting an extra public holiday, We’re just getting Anzac Day back because of the being on a weekend thing.

    Impressive framing of the fact we’re getting this because of ANZAC Day on a weekend. Almost like he’s trying to distract us from something.

    The plebs are mad I’m not letting them protest the Israeli president being in Australia while his country is committing genocide….

    “Another public holiday ! Hurrah! “

  8. Bash a bunch of people with your police because a foreign leader visited, good chunk of people didn’t like it, announce a ‘new’ public holiday.

    He sounds desperate.

    “NSW currently has fewer public holidays than other mainland states and territories”. 😣

    Gee, wouldn’t it be nice having more holidays peppered between King’ Birthday and Labour Day.

    As for this, yeah, ok, cheers for giving back ANZAC Day as a public holiday, mate.
