I’d leave the Southern Cross in - it has always represented the Australian land mass. It’s not politically loaded.
On the other hand, the Commonwealth Star represents the original 6 colonies and “The Territory of Papua and any futre territories” and needs to fuck off. Replaceit with something that represents a forward-looking restoration of indigenous culture and synthesis of settler cultures; The aspiration to build something worthy out of the cultural destruction of colonialism.
And then obvs the Union Flag in the canton should be replaced with either a Hammer and Sickle or a Drop Bear riding a surplus US submarine.
