EXCLUSIVEThe woke-leftist Australians determined to wreck King Charles historic trip Down Under as visit is labelled the Farewell Oz Tour and he is snubbed by rude state leaders

A petty and mean band of woke Australians are determined to wreck King Charles’ historic visit this week – but the British monarch will be warmly welcomed by the average Aussie who want him to be head of state, experts told MailOnline today.


A petty and mean band of woke Australians are determined to wreck King Charles’ historic visit this week – but the British monarch will be warmly welcomed by the average Aussie who want him to be head of state, experts told MailOnline today.

Charles, 75, has put his cancer treatment on hold to ensure the six-day trip can go ahead – yet the Australian Republic Movement (ARM) have vowed to make the visit the ‘Monarchy Farewell Oz Tour.

And six of Australias state premiers, five of them from the left-wing Australian Labor Party, are too busy with other commitments to welcome him – even though the tour was organised months ago. 

Royal biographer and investigative journalist Tom Bower told MailOnline today: The Republicans do their cause no good by seeking to embarrass a sick man who is doing his duty by travelling across the world at the request of the Australian government. 

They expose themselves as petty and worse, inhumane in not acknowledging The Kings personal sacrifice to do his duty.

A host of Australias top politicians, all of them left-wing, have refused to meet Charles in Australias capital next week, where British campaign group Republic is even planning a protest with CEO Graham Smith flying in from the UK.

Other protests are also planned in Sydney for when Charles and Camilla are in the city.

The woke credentials of the Australian politicians snubbing the Kings royal tour

Jacinta Allan

Victorias Labor premier Jacinta Allan  is too busy to attend the Kings welcome event in Canberra on Monday October 21.

She has been the 49th premier of Victoria since September 2023.

In July her government was slammed for encouraging biological males who identify as females to participate in a womens pain inquiry. 

She was also accused of ‘demonising men’ by appointing Australia’s first Parliamentary Secretary for Men’s Behaviour Change.

Chis Minns

NSW premier Chris Minns snubbed Charless visit - but also refused to light up Sydney Opera Houses sails for the Coronation.

He did however light it up for the Aussie womens football team, the Olympics, Ukraine and other world events.

Steven Miles 

Queensland premier Steven Miles is facing a battle to retain government after almost 10 years in office at an upcoming election.

He has been accused of trying to use a series of woke Green party policies as he tries to cling on.

This includes energy policies such as government-owned petrol stations. This year sex work was decriminalised in Queensland after decades of campaigning.

Jeremy Rockliff 

Tasmanian premier Jeremy Rockliff says he is a moderate Liberal - but his critics say he is much more left-wing.

He defied his party leader Peter Dutton by supporting the Indigenous Voice to Parliament in the lead-up to the failed 2023 referendum.

He has also supported changing the date of Australia Day from 26 January, backed by many republicans. 

Peter Malinauska  

South Australian premier Malinauska sparked controversy last year. 

In South Australia, 2024, Anzac Day -honouring the members of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps who died in war - has its name changed.

Premier Malinauskass government passed a bill rebranding it as 25 April instead.

Roger Cook 

Western Australias Premier Roger Cook was criticised in Juky when ghe said WA Labor would maintain links with the beleaguered CFMEU union, even though there were serious allegations of criminal links to the construction union. 

He was elected to the Premier job after support from the Australian Manufacturing Workers Union.

Prior to being elected to parliament he was involved in student politics, serving as the first president of the National Union of Students.

Ms Allan, whose government has been slammed for encouraging biological males who identify as females to participate in an inquiry into womens pain, will send parliamentary secretary Nick Staikos and state Governor Margaret Gardner, an avowed republican. 

NSW Labor premier Chris Minns said he cannot attend the Canberra welcoming also because of a cabinet meeting but he reportedly will attend other events with the King.

Queensland Labor premier Steven Miles said he will be busy campaigning for re-election campaign and Tasmanian premier Jeremy Rockliff, a left-leaning Liberal, is on a US trade mission.

South Australian Labor premier Peter Malinauskas also has a regional cabinet meeting while a spokesman for Western Australias Labor Premier, Roger Cook would only say he has other commitments.

Royal commentator Phil Dampier told MailOnline today it is rude and disrespectful of them to turn down the King.

Ironically all the polls are still showing a majority of Australians would vote to keep Charles as head of state if there was a referendum tomorrow, he said.

The Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is a Republican, but he has wisely put the issue on the back burner as he knows he could easily lose.

Bearing in mind his age and the fact he is battling cancer, it seems churlish of these Governors not to accept an invitation to meet the King and Queen.

Charles and Camilla are due to arrive in Australia on Friday.

They will be heading to Sydney and Canberra, where protests are planned in a nation recently branded the most woke country in the world.

It also comes as a new poll in Australia showed support for the monarchy remains high as the King set to embark on an historic tour of the country on Friday. 

A Daily ­Telegraph in Sydney poll found one in four have a more favourable view of King Charles than they did before he was crowned. And just one in three thought ­Australia should become a republic –down on the 39.4 per cent who voted that way at the ­countrys ­referendum in 1999.

Tom Bower told MailOnline today that Charles’ visit will be a great success, and the majority of Australians are behind him, as shown by the weekend’s poll.

He said: ‘Charles knows that the Australian republicans‘ traditional loud campaign to end the monarchy has always been defeated by the Australian electors.

‘The King knows that the Queen and the Royal Family have always been warmly supported in Australia and have politely acknowledged the minority republicans’ weakness is that the alternative is considered to be worse.

‘The King will be received with genuine support not least because he has dug deep roots since his boyhood’.

Phil Dampier has slammed those trying to hijack the trip for their own political ends. 

He said: The King and his late mother have always made it clear that it’s up to Australians to decide their form of Government and whether to ditch the monarchy, something they would accept gracefully if it happened.

So for these State Governors to snub him is rude and disrespectful.

He has shown them respect but they are not showing it back, presumably for their own political gain.

I’m sure Charles and Camilla will receive a warm welcome, although there will be a tiny number of anti-monarchy protestors shouting in the background.

The reception won’t be on the scale of when Prince Charles and his new wife Diana first toured there in the 1980s of course, and he and Camilla are a couple in their seventies.

But they represent a system which many people believe works for them, and let’s not forget how many Aussies still have ties to the old country.

Bearing in mind his age and the fact he is battling cancer, it seems churlish of these Governors not to accept an invitation to meet the King and Queen.

At the very least they could express their views personally and hear from their head of state.

Perhaps they fear they will be charmed by them and might change their minds.

The row over Charles’ visit came after a number of attacks on British statues in 2024.

This is even though the King has been clear he will not stand in the way if Australia wishes to replace him as the countrys head of state.

In June a statue of King George V was decapitated in Melbourne by vandals from the ‘The Colony Must Fall’ movement who dedicated the attack to King Charles.

And in January attacks on statues of Captain Cook and Queen Victoria before Australia Day sparked more outrage

Recent division has been blamed on the nations left-wing Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, who has been accused of bowing to a noisy minority spouting woke rubbish and virtue-signalling on issues such as climate change and gender.

The attacks on British statues from the 19th century agitation over Charles’ visit give an insight into the increasing wokeifcation of Australia - a country, to the outside world at least, better known for their love of beer, beaches and cricket.

But a new young generation of woke-left noisy activists has emerged with children Down Under being taught that their country is shameful and racist, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Albaneses critics have said Australia in the midst of a culture war and has become too quick to beat ourselves up and apologise for the past as well as ignored the benefits that came from being a colony.

Former prime minister John Howard, who led the country from 1996 to 2007, said last year: I do hold the view that the luckiest thing that happened to this country was being colonised by the British.

The King will be buoyed by polls in Australia which show support for the monarchy remains high as hes set to embark on an historic tour of the country on Friday.

It comes after Saturdays Daily Mail revealed he had written to republican campaigners stressing his deep love for the country and that any debate about its future is a matter for them.

Charles is King of Australia and the countrys head of state. In a poll in yesterdays Daily ­Telegraph in Sydney, one in four respondents had a more favourable view of King Charles now than they did before he was crowned, with just 5 per cent less positive.

Just one in three thought ­Australia should become a republic – well down on the 39.4 per cent who voted that way at the ­countrys ­referendum in 1999.

It comes as it was revealed that the monarch will pause his cancer treatment during his trip to Australia.

The 75-year-old monarch will undertake a significant official visit beginning on October 18, taking in Sydney and Canberra, immediately followed by a State Visit to Samoa in the South Pacific where he will attend the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM).

The Mail understands that His Majesty will continue with his ongoing cancer treatment right up until he flies but that his doctors are happy for it to be briefly stopped while he is away.

The King will then pick up with his treatment cycle as soon as he returns to the UK.

Charles was diagnosed with an undisclosed form of the disease in February following prostate surgery and has been receiving weekly treatment ever since.

However the news that the King intends to squeeze in a 30,000 mile, 11-day door-to-door trip in-between treatments is both good news in terms of his health - and also emphasises the commitment to duty he has shown since he was first diagnosed.

Buckingham Palace declined to comment.
