At a laid-back republican gathering and sausage sizzle held at the site of Williamstown lifesaving club – aka the Pearl Bay courthouse in Seachange – Huong Truong, a Year 10 student from Victoria said,” I reckon an Australian should be our Head of State because what’s the use of the Queen? She does very little for Australia and mainly gets the Governor-General to do all her work in regards to Australia.” Report from The Australian.
