Bulgarian Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 This is just PC nonsense and subversion of cultural norms by the progressive left that seem to have a hold on Australia at the moment. What harm is it doing to you (or anyone else) though ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fareast Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Australians are pretty unique. They have a distinctive accent and a very distinctive 'culture' [ " Gerrit dahn yer neck, cobber. " and " Cor blimey, shiver me boomerang ! Cop for that pair o' .........etc...".]. Their flora and fauna are pretty unique to Australia. They 're a long way from anywhere else and so things like tact, understatement, irony and subtlety have largely passed them by. Hence they love to travel all round the world, pestering people with their didgeridoos and Matildas. So, on their passports it might be a good idea to simply put a warning, 'This passport holder is Australian and must be approached with care. If found wandering please deposit in a nearby pub or emigration point. ' Good On Ya, Pommy ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If David Cameron doesn't think Multiculturism doesn't work - he should take a rip to Australia. Multiculture IS our culture. In areas where there is a high proportion of Muslims, McDonalds sell halal burgers, in high Jewish areas- the KFCs are kosher etc. I love the cultural things that are classically 'Australian' although they were introduced from all parts of the world.
