Some times it doesn't pay to get up in the morning.Answering questions about a report that revealed that 75 per cent of Australian teenagers are "ignorant" of the significance of Australia's national day - Australia Day,
NSW Education Minister Carmel Tebbutt, was asked why Australia Day was celebrated.
Unfortunately the Education Minister gave the wrong answer - confusing its origin with that of Federation Day.
When informed of her error she replied, "Sorry, you've got me too early in the morning. Australia Day of course is European arrival in Australia."
