Fantastic example of arrogant stereotyping if ever I've seen it.

I form my own opinions, thanks for asking (oh, that's right, you never bothered to ask, you simply assumed since all "ockers" are...

Re: Interesting reading for those thinking of returning from Oz

You call yourself "kiwi_child" then lament about feeling out of place in Perth. :confused:

I'm surprised that Perth is the destination of choice for as many English immigrants as it seems. I've...

Re: Interesting reading for those thinking of returning from Oz

You are off the mark with this view. Many of those on mine sites, oil and gas rigs earn six figures in the North West, more so than dime a dozen management types in Sydney and Melbourne. This has...

Re: Interesting reading for those thinking of returning from Oz

Our primary industries are not labour intensive and will be less so over time. Pray tell, what do these extra people produce to exchange for crucial imports when when you are as isolated from major...

Re: Interesting reading for those thinking of returning from Oz

Every western country has sub-replacement birth rates. How the aged welfare problem will be dealt with here by increasing the population to a level that is neither economically, socially or...

WA born and bred. 5th generation Australian.

Re: Interesting reading for those thinking of returning from Oz

Which government isn't in the pockets of corporations or other elites with selfish agendas?

Given our isolation from world markets curtailing trade opportunities and lack of water, I believe not...

Re: Interesting reading for those thinking of returning from Oz

There are only two groups of people desperate for population:

1. Corporations as it increases the size of their domestic market.
2. Corporations that want to keep labour costs as low as possible,...

Re: Interesting reading for those thinking of returning from Oz

It's far too easy IMO. I don't agree with dual citizenship either.

Re: Interesting reading for those thinking of returning from Oz

How many returning are putting their money where their mouth is and revoking their Aus-UK dual citizenship/PR get-out-of-jail-free-when-the-shit-hits-the-fan-back-in-old-blighty card?

Perth has the highest proportion of aboriginals out all capital cities and is the reason why it has the highest burglary rate. Ethnicity of offender stats are no longer reported here.

Re: Spiders

Re: Poll: would it be better to get rid of state parliaments?
