Have your say in The Great Aussie Debate

Australia, it’s time to settle where we stand on some of the biggest debates happening in your homes and workplaces.

Australia, we have some issues to settle.

What’s the ideal number of days to work from home? Has our nation become too woke? And is going shoeless in the supermarket ever OK?

These are just some of the topics that we want to know what you think about.

Settle in and take this survey of 50 questions - it shouldn’t take longer than 5-10 minutes - and help us settle some of the biggest debates happening in our homes and workplaces.

The Great Aussie Debate will explore Australians’ habits and behaviours in this national survey as well as our views on race, money, sex and beach cabanas.

More than 50,000 Aussies taking part in the inaugural survey in 2023 revealing exclusive insights like how many Aussies were actually returning their trolleys, and how many of us have ghosted our exes. For the great diversity in our country, it’s fascinating to see how much common ground we actually have.

“The Great Aussie Debate was created to give Australians the freedom to speak candidly and offer them a platform to openly share their frank and fearless opinions on a broad spectrum of issues,” news.com.au editor Kerry Warren said.

“This year, we’re going even deeper into understanding where we stand as a nation right now – looking at everything from the lighthearted to the serious, and everything in between.”

Congratulations to our winner D. Riddell of 6022.
