You cannot compare the relationship between the Isle of Man (a Crown Dependency) and the United Kingdom to that between two sovereign nations. A closer comparison of the IOM/U.K. relationship would be that between Puerto Rico and the United States.

All that's needed is every Kiwi in Australia promising to vote labour if only they could.
The government will make them PRs before the election i'm sure! Comon Kiwis, get the message out there |

Re: Changes for kiwis in australia
not 100 percent correct british subjects who enrolled before 1986 can vote, in fact I know a kiwi who was out of country whiles rules changed so is a non protected SCV but is still enrolled to vote.... Strange but true.

What makes you assume every Kiwi wants PR?

Re: Changes for kiwis in australia
Indeed. One friend of mine here on the SCV definitely does not, as he would have to start paying tax on his overseas investments.

My parents used to live on the island and I dealt with both their estates when they died, so I have dealt with both systems. |
Re: Changes for kiwis in australia
It would appear that this story might have some truth to it see Dom post today...
Thousands of New Zealanders living "temporarily" in Australia could win residency - but only after spending nearly a decade in the country. Internal Australian immigration documents reveal a proposed "pathway" that would allow New Zealanders living in Australia to gain permanent residency after "eight years or more". The proposal has been presented to the Cabinet in Australia, although its status is unclear http://www.stuff.co.nz/world/austral...iwis-residency

You see that attitude has always confused me a bit, especially from British immigrants who have unfettered access to Europe, because it is not clearly a case of NZ'ers getting preferential treatment over other countries. NZ & Aus have many things in common, similar geographic location, history, culture and so it makes sense to set this sort of relationship up. Additionally I think you will find that the NZ'ers impact on the Australian economy is positive, as studies have shown. The restrictions on NZ'ers has also been recognised as being pretty dodgy/racist from various global organisations.
