Customers won't be able to purchase Australia Day products at the retailers, who cited a "gradual decline in demand". However, Coles Group is continuing to stock said merchandise.
Gomeroi woman Rachael McPhail has been petitioning Australia Post to make the change, as part of a campaign to include traditional place names in all addresses. McPhail has been championing the use of traditional Country names for years.
It’s a significant step in the right direction. McPhail told the ABC that there is still work to be done, however. The next step is compiling a comprehensive database of all traditional place names, so people can easily work out where to send their mail.
So proud of & inspired by my baawaa Rach who has campaigned for YEARS to get this to happen
