Australia Day is under fire as Invasion Day protests grow louder, the Albanese Labor government fails on social cohesion, and immigration continues to explode while ordinary Australians struggle with the cost of living and housing. In this episode of The Mark Pirotta Show, we break down the Australia Day vs Invasion Day rallies, the bomb scare at the Perth rally, the burning of the Australian flag, and what it all means for free speech, hate speech laws, and the future of our national identity.​We also look at why Pauline Hanson’s One Nation is surging in the polls, why more Australian women are turning to One Nation, and how policies on immigration, energy prices, childcare and net negative migration could reshape the next federal election. From neo-Nazi stupidity on stage to Indigenous activists stomping on the flag, we unpack how these actions really incite hatred, fracture social cohesion and push Australians further apart at a time we desperately need unity.If you care about Australia Day, Western values, freedom of speech, immigration, social cohesion and the cost‑of‑living crisis, this episode is for you.
