The ABC has been accused of dividing the nation by referring to Australia Day as "Invasion Day" in an online guide for events happening on January 26, while Police Minister David Elliott has slammed the national broadcaster for promoting a protest which organisers expect to breach COVID-19 gathering rules. A piece published on the ABC News website yesterday said "January 26 marks Australia Day or Invasion Day, typically seen as a celebration of the nation or a day of sorrow for the colonisation of an ancient culture". An accompanying tweet said: "What to do on Australia Day/Invasion Day in 2021". That terminology was criticised yesterday by Indigenous Australians Minister Ken Wyatt.
