I doubt its the Brits,

It is the lazy, thick, scum and their offspring (Brits included) that have no respect for this world, you get them everywhere.

It is a shame, I utterly detest litter dropping. The only way we can help is to educate our own young who in turn may educate their peers.

I come to only one conclusion but it might be wrong .....
I've come to only one conclusion too, but it might also be wrong...... is there the same percentage of "ignorant lazy " people among the Brits as there are "ignorant lazy " people among the Aussies. And where do the people with dual citizenship fit into that
My head hurts now. Some many problems, so little aspirin......

Hey Pollyana don't worry about your head.. just go to queen street mall and talk to the alternative youth there.. while not getting into stereotypes, I am still sure you could get something stronger than aspirin from at least one of them :scared:
