flag Australia Day merchandise has been removed from Woolworths stores across the nation.

flag Woolworths has confirmed that all Australia Day merchandise has been removed from its stores across the nation and will no longer be sold. flag The supermarket chain's decision comes amid a broader pushback against the January 26 date, with many arguing it is not inclusive to Indigenous Australians. flag A Woolworths Group spokesperson cited a "gradual decline" in demand for the merchandise over the years and "broader discussion" about the January 26 date and "what it means" to different parts of the community. flag The move follows at least 81 councils moving the dates of their traditional citizenship ceremonies away from the January 26 date.
