Tag #Gravy Day

What is the significance of "Gravy Day" in Australia and how did this year's events further highlight its cultural impact?

In Australia, Paul Kelly's song "How to Make Gravy" has become a Christmas classic, so much so that December 21st is now known as "Gravy Day." This year, the song's significance extended beyond festive celebrations when Prime Minister Albanese cited it while releasing five drug smugglers from prison after 20 Christmases apart from their families. A new film based on the song has also been released.
