We have served our country, show some respect. ANZAC Day is not about the bottom line. Newcastle Council it's your turn to give and pay respect

Do you think the Digger's had the option to down tool on Sunday - imagine that!! All you had to give was a couple of hours in return for the blood they gave you! Have more respect!

this is disgusting. The councils will fund their own "tea parties" yet wont support those who have given the ultimate sacrifice for their freedom. Newcastle council have tried to hide behind the fact that they fund a couple of ANZAC day services, so as to be seen to do something. SUPPORT THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO SUPPORTED AND CONTINUE TO SUPPORT OUR COUNTRY.
