Default Muticultural Australia

Having read more than a few posts on this forum from people seem to be NF members , I feel than some require an education in what Australia is before they bring their bull here.
The white anglo saxon or very near it bollocks was done away with in the Mid 1960s and Australia has tried to become more worldly.
It claims to be the most Muticultural in the World not true America is far more diverse but would equal the UK and in time will outstrip it .

What does the term “multicultural Australia� mean? A majority of Australians not only regard Australia as a culturally diverse (59%) and multicultural society, in which people should be encouraged to keep their own cultural identity (52%), but they also value this as a real strength of our society.

Today, nearly one in four of Australia's 19 million people was born overseas. For the past three financial years New Zealand displaced the United Kingdom as the largest source birthplace of migrants.
They came from more than 150 countries. Most were born in New Zealand (17.6 per cent), the United Kingdom (9.8per cent), China (7.5 per cent), South Africa (6.4 per cent), India (5.7per cent) and Indonesia (4.7 per cent).

How ironic that so many wish to emigrate from UK to Oz based on the number of immigrants coming into the UK. And in my opinion those who claim only to hold this view about illegal immigrants have little good to say about the legal kind either.

very well put....I remember getting into quite an arguement about this a few weeks ago on this forum. Some of the people posting from the UK have an incredibly insular view of the world.
