I can see what you are saying. As one of those that 'get' Australia as you put it I am not that naive that I can't see that it doesn't have its own problems. Some of us are more prepared to tolerate the problems here than the problems in Britain.

It is something that adults do

Don't know. Maybe for the same reason some people are insecure about having their criticism questioned.

One man's meat is another man's poison.
One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.
One man's trash is another man's treasure.
One man's counter argument is a whinger's perceived attack on his one-eyed reasoning

Please can you agree to disagree or else cut out the name calling and stuff. We are supposed to be adults, and this site was started so that us expat brits can use it to connect with, and support each other .... not have a go.

Many thanks
