WfaAR, together with the Australian Republican Movement and Real Republic representatives, laid baskets of black wattle on the Foundation Stone in front of Parliament House in Canberra to mark the tenth anniversary of the failed referendum on the Republic. The event received wide media coverage. All three republican groups emphasised their agreement that the people must have their say about severing constitutional ties with the British monarchy and decide their preferred selection method for Head of State.
