New polling shows a significant drop in support for January 26 in just two years.

    The march and September dates are already holidays. Not that I object to shuffling Labour day around.

      According to the Australian holidays calendar I subscribe to, 4 March is Labour Day in Western Australia. That would just mean they get an extra-long weekend. (Besides, no offence, but that’s a dumb time for Labour Day. In terms of the history of the labour movement, on or about 1 May is when it should be.)

      There’s no holiday listed on my calendar on or near 3 September. Are you thinking of October, which is when ACT, NSW, and SA have their Labour Day (plus Qld has King’s Birthday and Christmas Island has Territory Day)?

        It turns out our (WA) Monarch’s birthday is September 23. I thought it was earlier in the month than that. But still, it’s a bit close to September 3.
