Neale Daniher, such a very worthy #AOTY
Full credit to The Guardian for showing it as worn it rather than blurring it out - the only other site that I could see that hadn't blurred it was The Chaser: https://chaser.com.au/general-news/grace-tame-stuns-the-pm-at-morning-tea/

Grace Tame is making a strong public statement again. This time, while meeting with Anthony Albanese, she's taking a stand against Rupert Murdoch and the poisonous influence of his NewsCorp media empire. It's a timely reminder of Grace Tame's powerful side-eye at Scott Morrison in 2022.

A warm congratulations to Glenys Oogjes, CEO of #AnimalsAustralia, and recipient of Victoria's Senior Australian of the Year! 🎊🥳
Over her 4 decade stint with Animals Australia, Glenys has made substantial contributions in Australia's animal policy, leading to substantial changes to the welfare of farmed animals throughout Australia.
Her tireless work makes Animals Australia one of the most effective animal advocacy groups, bringing the plight of animals in Australia front and centre to the communities consciousness.
Once again, congratulations Glenys! You are an inspiration to all of us here at Vegan Australia!
This from Humans of Melbourne FB is spot on! “How the hell has he (Neale Daniher) not been Australian of the Year yet? No one give me any bs excuse about not being able to perform the duties of the role. Being given this honour should not come with a prerequisite of the duties you need to fulfil in the future. It should be solely decided on the duty you have already performed”
Let’s get it done!!

Congratulations to Professor Tom Calma AO on being named Senior Australian of the Year. I had a feeling it would be you.
Excellent acceptance speech, clearly and succinctly outlining the respectful symbolism of #TheVoice and calling for all Australians to come together once again (like in 1966) and #VoteYes in #VoiceToParliament.
Trying to watch #AustralianoftheYear on @ABCAustralia and this is where they put the subtitles. FFS. #AOTY
Antony Green for #AustralianOfTheYear.

Check out this body language. I mean, I get it, the man feels uncomfortable about having his views destroyed by a woman, but if he couldn't have done the interview without showing disdain, why go?
