I've waited until Australia Day (January 26) to post this.
The title of Australia's national anthem is "Advance Australia Fair". There are some noble sentiments expressed in it and politicians love to spruik it.
But Australia is not fair now and it never really was. Economic inequity has always existed, young people struggle to buy a home and the social contract is under immense strain.
I will, however, always advocate for fairness and equity even if it requires a small personal sacrifice.
