Default Australia $5 Note will remove the Queens image
[The RBA has revealed a design
celebrating Indigenous people's connections
to country will replace the image
of the monarch on Australia's $5 note.
The new note bearing the theme,
selected from more than 2,100 public nominations,
will be the first not to feature a monarch.]


Was reported on WION HD Gravitas Part 2


How it used to look

Nothing wrong with them incorporating more of the indigenous culture since it was so badly repressed there (and still not great tbf).

It would be a technological wonderland, just like how Africa would have been Wakanda if not for Europeans.

Disenchantment with Australia’s leaders and concern about “woke” culture were two of the most common reasons why almost 70 per cent of people were not happy with the direction the country is headed in.

It’s not even the same prime minister mentioned in the article.

And the woke comments are from right wing commenters. Three in total

No idea, but the aboriginals would likely still have all their land.
