Why do still have “god” in your national anthem? Do you support a secular anthem?

You also had to change the words in the current anthem in response to the calls of it being rooted in racism.

And that’s done. It’s been changed to recognise the 40,000+ years of Indigenous heritage, and also to recognise the multiculturalism in Australia. I am proud of the change.

Yes, we sing God save the Queen as a royal anthem, but you sing it as a national anthem as well (along with GDNZ). Australia’s monarchy will be gone before you know it, there is a high level of support for the monarchy because of Queen Elizabeth’s popularity, but that support will drop once old sackbag Charles and his witch Camilla become King and Queen consort. I think the same might happen with NZ.
