Crikey! Trouble at Bondi Beach mate!
 
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article...921567,00.html

Battle on beach as mob vows to defend 'Aussie way of life'
Thousands of people, many chanting racial slurs, were engaged in running battles on Cronulla Beach in Sydney’s southern suburbs.


Some rough videos on Fox News earlier about mobs at an Australian beach (not Bondi - that was just catchy...).

Harder to find through Google than I would have expected.

So, what is the 'Aussie way of life'?

My mate was at Bondi a few weeks back on his around the world tour. Looks like he left at the right time.

One of the places to "see before you die" definitely has to be Bondi Beach on Christmas Day :) It's surreal

Well it's all down to their immigration policies of the last few years so it serves them right for being too PC. As for the title you could have had 'Riots at Britains largest open prison' or 'Snags at the barbie' or even ' What's that Skippy? The skins did what?'

Does this not count as a prison riot ? :D
