What's the difference between an aussie and milk? If you put both of them in the sun for more than a month only one will develop a culture! boom boom

Read Bill Bryson's "Down Under" - he will explain, but there are so many reasons, he had to write a book.
Aussies are racists - go there - I have, and you'll hear abusive language we haven't heard here since the 1970s.
They come to London because they feel at home - at the centre of the Empire where colonial values and attitudes remain strangley acceptable and they can still get away with attributing characteristics based on how people look.
The white South Africans are the same. No immigration queues for them either..... they just flash the British Passports they get based on where their ancestors were born and get straight in. Remember that Great British athlete Zola Budd?

I'm an aussie and I'm a bit offended by this, why blame all aussies for some bad things that a few of them did, some poms in australia can be annoying too.

Australians have yet to learn how to be sophisticated city dwellers. Many of them come from small villages such as Sydney where all the lights are switched off at 9pm and the pubs close. Australians are used to speaking in loud vulgar voices - it's the only way they can be heard back home over the noise of their flocks of sheep...baahhhh!! Australians also eat with their hats on and use their fingers - how vulgar.
Only problem is that according to my late dad, when he was in the desert campaign in North Africa, the Oz crowd dashed past his position and stuck it into the Jerries, real hard. My dad thought the Australians and yes the New Zealanders too were warrior gods.
I have nothing but high praise for Australians yes and NZds too -
otherwise the Anzac's....

Sorry but I have to disagree, two of my closest friends are aussies living here and I have to say that they are two of the happiest, most inspiring people I've ever had the good fortune to meet. They certainly aren't whingers with fake CV's!! They're always around for a laugh and I'm lucky to count them friends, it's a shame you've experienced the dark side of aussies!

Aussies are great!
(and no, I'm not one, I'm a Pom)
I've met, worked with and made friends with several Aussies in London and they've been, without exception, open, friendly, honest and fun!
And hey, don't insult them, some of us want to do the work exchange thing and they're picky with their visas! It's not easy making yourself a life on the other side of the world...

I lived in Oz for a year and, whilst some Australians will tell you they're Ozzie Battlers every 3 minutes, the vast majority i met were friendly and were a good laugh. I think you'll find whingey people in any group.
By the way thanks for the totally irrelevant black facts crazy white supremacist bloke. You're not a viz character are you?
