I strongly condemn the hateful disruption of this morning’s Dawn Service.
A neo-Nazi disrupting this day is appalling – it has no place here.
Anzac Day honours the values our Anzacs lived and died for: courage, loyalty, mateship, and sacrifice. Those who booed in the dark showed they have none of these qualities.
To pierce the sombre silence of the Dawn Service is more than disrespect – it dishonours all who have served, fought and fallen.
And to boo the Aboriginal servicemen and women who served our nation shows ignorance, hatred, and a complete lack of respect – for them, and for everything Anzac Day stands for.
Anzac Day is a time to unite, reflect, and remember.
Today and every day, we honour every Australian who has served the nation we are so lucky to call our home.
