    So it has gone from a minority of people that call Australia Day "Invasion" day to a majority overnight, Crikey that was quick
    Nobody is denying history But there are those that want to twist the Facts into Myths in their attempt to force their agenda upon others, I am pretty confident that it Isn't the Australia Day supporters doing this

    Calling it a settlement is twisting the facts. We certainly weren't invited to take over land which was already occupied and managed. Let's just call it what it was - an invasion.
