Raise The Flags –

Proclaimer Roast for the Ages

🍺 Well Boys and Girls, Strap In

Here we bloody go again. The March for Australia mob are back at it — and this time it’s Operation Raise the Flags.

That’s right, we’re not hiding, we’re not whispering, and we’re not sitting on our hands waiting for permission.

We’re raising the bloody flags.

Lefties? They’re gonna shit bricks.
Righties? Half of ’em will argue among themselves over whether the stars are in the right spot.
Us? We’re just gonna fly the bloody things and remind everyone what being Aussie actually means.

So get off your arse. Dust off that flag. Find a pole, a post, a balcony, a fence, a bloody Hills Hoist if you have to. Stick it up and join the party.

We’re painting the nation red, white, and blue — and no amount of whinging, cancel culture, or keyboard warrior bullshit is gonna stop us.

🚩 Flag Envy and Pub Philosophy

It’s funny, isn’t it? Aussies will paint themselves in team colours for the footy, wear beer logos on their undies, and argue endlessly about which Bunnings snag setup is superior… but some still flinch at putting up a flag.

Why? Because some academic at Melbourne Uni once decided flying your own bloody national flag was a “problematic symbol.”

Mate, if you reckon your own country’s flag is offensive, that’s not a political statement — that’s a cry for help.

Flags aren’t about division. They’re about identity. They’re about saying I belong here, this is my mob, this is my home. Doesn’t matter whether it’s blue ensign, red ensign, Eureka, Aboriginal, or your kid’s hand-drawn Southern Cross stuck on the fridge.

Fly it. Own it. Be proud.

💩 The Arseholes Will Come

Now let’s get this out of the way. The usual suspects — the so-called “Edge” clowns and the “Courage is the Cure” prophets — are already polishing their keyboards.

They’ll come at us with the same recycled garbage:

“This is a cult!”
“This is world domination disguised as nationalism!”
“This is basically fascism with Bunnings vouchers!”

Crikey, lads. That’s not analysis. That’s a lazy Facebook post with extra soy milk.

It’s also an insult — not just to us, but to the hard bloody work people are putting in behind the scenes to actually do something. While you’re scribbling manifestos about us, we’re the ones out there making things happen.

You wanna accuse people of being a cult? Go join a yoga retreat in Byron and leave the flags to the grown-ups.

🤝 An Invitation They Won’t Take

But here’s the twist: we’re not shutting them out.

We’re inviting them in.

Courage is the Cure, Edge, whoever else — get behind the bloody initiative. Lead by example for once. Stop tearing down people who are on your side and start building something real.

Because if we can’t stop bitching and in-fighting among ourselves, what hope have we got of uniting a whole country?

It’s not about you. It’s not about me. It’s about Australia. And if that’s not enough to get you on board, you’re part of the problem, not the cure.

🎉 The Great WA Flag-Off

Alright, here’s the fun bit. WA, we’re making this a competition.

Which suburb will be the most flagged in the state?

Canning Vale? Rockingham? Geraldton? Bloody Albany?

We’ve already seen more and more flags going up as the word spreads. Pretty soon, you won’t be able to drive down a street without thinking you’ve stumbled into a patriotic street festival.

Flags on fences. Flags in pub windows. Flags in shopfronts. Flags on caravans. Flags on utes.

We’re turning Western Australia into one giant Southern Cross. And if you think that’s over the top — mate, wait till you see what Queensland does when they catch wind.

🐨 Australia’s Long History of Flag Fights

Now, we all know Aussies love a good argument about flags. Hell, it’s practically a national pastime.

Blue ensign vs red ensign.
Union Jack or no Union Jack.
Eureka vs Southern Cross tattoos from that Bali trip in 2004.

But here’s the truth: every one of those flags is part of the story.

And the point of Operation Raise the Flags isn’t to erase the arguments. It’s to put the controversy to bed.

We’re Australian. That’s the one thing they can’t take away.

They can fiddle with symbols, they can bitch about colours, they can debate designs till the cows come home — but they cannot, and will not, erase the identity of the Aussie.

🔥 For Every Flag They Burn…

You know the line, and it’s the one that’s pissing off all the right people:

For every Australian flag they burn, we will raise 100 more.

Read it again. Tattoo it on your arm. Paint it on your shed. Spray-paint it on the skate park wall.

You wanna protest by burning our flag? Congratulations, you just created a hundred new ones. That’s not resistance — that’s free advertising.

So go ahead. Light ’em up. All you’re doing is fuelling a fire that’ll cover every street, every suburb, every backyard in Australia with more red, white, and blue than you can handle.

🍻 The Perth Proclaimer Toast

And at the end of it, when the smoke clears, you’ll find us where we always are — at the pub.

Pints raised. Flags hanging from the ceiling. Meat tray raffle in the corner. Someone inevitably butchering Khe Sanh on the jukebox.

And one voice cuts through:

“For every Australian flag they burn, we will raise 100 more!”

The whole pub roars it back.

Because in that moment, it doesn’t matter if you’re left, right, red, blue, Aboriginal, Eureka, or all of the above. You’re Aussie. And you’re proud.

📣 The Final Word

Operation Raise the Flags isn’t about politics. It isn’t about cults. It isn’t about globalist paranoia.

It’s about being proud to be who we are. It’s about refusing to be ashamed. It’s about putting the bloody fun back into patriotism.

So dust off the flag, WA. Raise it high. Raise it proud. Compete with your neighbours. Compete with your suburbs. Make this state a wall of Southern Cross stars so bright the whole world has to squint.

Because this is our country. This is our home. And it stays that way.
