It's become a day/weekend for bogan flag waves to get drunk and annoy the shit out of everyone.

Not according to Murdoch's report. Am surprised they published it.

Scenes at Bondi Beach today made it clear: Australia Day certainly isn’t celebrated as it used to be.

“I went to a barbecue last year, and I was surprised because they had heaps of Australian flag stuff out, but they wouldn’t have done that in public,” she said.
