Perhaps if Australia educated it's youngsters into trades and other jobs that are needed you wouldn't need "all these Poms" to keep your country going.

And as you are white, where is your heritage. Perhaps English and a "Pom immigrant".

Exactly! Always makes me laugh when "true blue" Aussies bang on about being Aussie through and through, well erm you don't look Aboriginal so chances are you're European! Sorry to break it to you

While not a big believer in banging on about being "true blue" I think banging on about non aboriginal Australians not being Aussie through and through is a bit tired as well. In my book anyway. Are proud people from the states and canada constantly reminded that they aren't indians, are staunch english constantly reminded that there is a good chance they are irish, scottish or french. It seems to be just used to score a point.
