You are obviously having a bad day, and despite your extensive education, are resorting to name calling and insults.

My offer to help your repatriation was genuine. I don't want anyone to be unhappy in this country. Especially when they are lucky enough to have a far better alternative, only 24 hours flight time from your nearest international airport.

If public acceptance of my offer is an issue, please feel free to 'P.M.' me. I'm sure that together we can speed your return to utopia

No wonder he likes Australia.

It's the same the world over when you have means testing.

I think that being poor in England is better, especially London:-

When did I call the UK utopia?

Make your pathetic attempts at humour relevant, at least.

Comparing that to the UK, does everyone live in the CBD's in the UK now then ?

Median house price 1 hour to Sydney CBD is about $350k in many areas. (3.5 times average household income)

How much more than the UK is that ? Or are they both similar ?
The comparison price would be about £125,000 for an average 3 bed detached house, one hour from London.

Gentelmen, Gentlemen, think of the regiment.

Damn poor show all of this calling out and implying lack of honour and integrity. Almost makes me want to reach for the Mess Webbley.

Neddy had given fair evidence that the UK is a far better place to live if you meet certain conditions.

What say you Creepy?

Not you mate. It's just that "Hino" is a bit of a shirt front. Offers of lifts to the airport seem to be his speciality... top flight proponent of the FIFO principle.... as shown below.

Two sugars sir, and an arrowroot biscuit?

Sorry about the noise sir, it’s the neighbours fighting again.

Australia is no longer a place for people from UK council estates to realise their dreams.Some of the defensive remarks indicate a sense of cognitive dissonance..
Every city in every country has rough areas.
I spent the weekend in the Scottish Highlands. I saw castles ,dolphins ,red kites under bright blue skies and ate delicious food.
The services I received were of a far superior quality than I ever experienced in Oz
