@iloveamericans1 No my friend, it's not necessary because of that. you are the only ignorant who stablish a nonexistent relation between this and the case britain-argentina because of a prejudice. I'd also hate a flag of an X country with an other flag inside it... It's something conceptual.
@iloveamericans1 Well, but not me. I can hate the colonialism, but not the whole nation in the name of those who carry it out. I don't hate the ordinary british people, I don't hate britain. I just enjoy seeing each country with it's own flag, a flag that really represents that country. That's my opinion as foreign and world cityzen. Now, if the Australians enjoy having a foreign flag inside their flag... that's not my problem.
What makes me laugh about this video is the dick who made it really has no idea what the UK's about, we Brits could care less if Australia went her own independent way, we certainly wouldnt "fight" to keep the Monarchy as their heads of state, our nations are a family, we share history, language and and belief in democracy, we as Brits should be proud we founded modern Australia and Aussies should be proud of their British roots, but if Aussies wanna republic, fuck it, let em!
@TheCharlie359 we Aussies built a great country the world calls paradise! over 100 000 brits move here each year! and many more from around the world! and with our country now far more advanced then Britain i think its best for us to break away from the nation dragging us behind! have a lovely day mate :-)
@Catfeet100 Backwards, obsolete? The Indigenous Australians had it right mate, if they lived successfully for 40,000+ years without disturbing the lands natural cycle and resources, they must have some idea of what they're doing. If the world hadn't been so modernised and commercialised, perhaps the world wouldn't be facing all the problems we are today.
yeah india is really a rich country right, or about african countrys where brits have been, australians dont have clue how this works, the uk sucks you dry and rules over you, and when the elite wants to go war u have to send your ppl and get nothing out it, like vietnam and so on, did u know that 160 tons of australian gold were sold or transfered to uk or better to queens banks and mr rothschilds, and they knew what has coming that price gold has going up, happy now... dollar is just scheme
australia is just colony and uk never stopped its monstruous imperial dictatorship using usa, if u like it so much being part of the uk then dont complain when they take your resources and your gold to the uk, because the uk is bankrupt, also go to war for their imperial agenda that is keeping the whole world down while 5 countrys suck all the resources, usa is finished also, its matter time for australia to break free or be involved in all rothschilds operations around the world
Canada is an independent nation and we have Union Jacks to go around... It only means our heritage is British, and also French, it has nothing to do with not being sovereign. In fact, being of both British and French roots makes us better and stronger, not weaker.
I gave a speech at school about why Australia should become a republic and got called un patriotic by the teacher. Isn't funny that im called un-patriotic for wanting the symbol of another country off my country's flag.
Removing the union jack would be a sign that Australia has finally grown up and isn't just a holiday home for ex-pat Brits and a source of cannon fodder for English wars. Brendan Jones reconciliation flag from 1995 would be a great replacement, it keeps the Southern Cross but combines it with the Aboriginal flag colours.
Changing the flag is an insult! Taking away the pride of actually being Australian, This Flag is perfect for the country i cannot see a reason to change it. If you don't like the flag you are born with, then get out of the country. If the day that Australia becomes a republic i'm out of here, If muslims, asians and indians out-number us here and we become a republic, their ways of life will be forced upon us and we wont have freedom like we do now. The flag we have now is a symbol of freedom
this flag design is terrible, however I am in favour of changing the flag, preferably to something that bogans don't feel the need to either wave around like a lunatic or wear as a cape. "those who wave flags don't deserve to have them"
I shouldn't have to look at a FOREIGN countries flag when I look at my own flag I feel the flag infringes on my human rights the flag will change eventually, Canada did and they have just as much pride in their veterans and stuff.
As they say if you don't like something change it, you better burry yourself upside down because you'll be rolling in your grave when the flag changes.
I say no to making Australia a republican. Without the british monarchy, we wouldn't be were we are today. I've grown up all my life under the british constitution making our own laws fair. I do not want our nation under islamic law, turning our country into a terrorist country. Australia will never become a republic. Not while the queen is still on the throne. Neither will country change wether british royal are heir to the throne as is past from generation to generation.
@thr33wisemonks Why do you think Dudd , Ju-Liar Gil-Lard , opened the flood gates and ended the Liberals Pacific solution to ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS arriving from Indonesia. The Labor partys hidden agenda and No.1 priorty is to have another referendum to become a republic and what better way to ensure its succesful by having the country flooded with non english speaking muslim 3rd world scum.
I'm with you though , if aint broke why try and fix it.
@Rommeljnr Look at what happened to some of those countries that decided to go independant. They failed to maintain the british monarchy diversity ways resulting civil wars. With the rate of non-english speaking muslims making australia their home and out numbering us, we are bound to be invaded and out voted making Australia an Islamic State. I am proud to be australian and under the monarchy and I will fight for my country against any islamic threat.
I have to say that video made me sick. The way that ugly beach towel you designed kept flashing up, how self indulgent. You say that Australia doesn't have freedom which is utter rubbish. Australia's current flag was chosen by Australian citizens in a nationwide competition.... how much more free do you want it, dickhead.
Monarchy rules, i love having a Monarch, Soon to have our first King in a long time, I don't care that England runs Australia, if we go independent then we may lose a few allies (most probably not) but i think the flag, the nation should stay the way it is and has been for the past 200 years or so
@TheRomperr I agree with you 100%. I have been brought up all my life under the monarchy which has made our laws fair.With the rate of non-english speaking muslims arriving by people smugglers, we are bound to be invaded and out voted which might make us an Islamic nation according to an Islamic Cleric of Al-queda and the taliban. I will fight for my country and under our monarchy against any threats to Australia. God Bless the Queen and the future king/s

what are they going to do about new south wales? im from south wales in the uk and we own you. are you going to change it to new south australia or something lol
@Jedimindtrickitis changing the aussie flag is so petty it's borderline paranoid. the british landed in australia hundres of years ago, that flag simply represents australia
How about a flag with the aboriginal flag on one corner, the union jack & southern cross on the other, another symbol added to represent Australians from other cultures, and a kangaroo???? That way, everybody is happy!!!
How about a flag with the aboriginal flag on one corner, the union jack & southern cross on the other, another symbol added to represent Australians from other cultures, and a kangaroo????
we already have freedom under our constitution you idiot lol this is what pisses me off all over a flag lol you people need to educate yourselves if we move to a republic you can kiss our constitution goodbye
The video is well made. Only one technicality. um, Mel Gibson was really born in the USA, he did go to school here in NIDA and has properties in the Victorian alps. The other technicality that many don't take notice of, is the Union flag is a flag of it's own on land, and a jack at sea. We call it a Jack? The ensign from a foreign sea vessel? As to whether the Crown of Australia is Australian or not is really messy and ambiguous, and the Royalists do go on...
Australia is an independent country and has been for a long time. The problem I have with the current flag is not necessarily the Union Jack, but I believe any Australian flag should be in our national colours of green and gold. Our Olympians win gold medals in green and gold, but at the medal ceremony, up goes a red,white and blue flag. Keep the current flag if you want, just make it green and gold.
@gordopark13 Green and gold are our national colours, not red, white and blue. Our flag should be green and gold. You're missing the point. Soldiers will die no matter what our flag looks like. Soldiers don't die for the flag, they die because the Brits and the Yanks always ask us to join their tantrums.
@MrDaveLogan Only since the 80's even Canada's current flag has more history than that inspired by the Royal Military College of Canada Est in 1876. Olympians get medals in green and gold because it represents the nations floral emblem the Wattle. Soldiers have died for flags,Colours,Standard,Guidons its happened for hundreds of years and soldiers die because we sent them there for whatever reason deserves more repect from your last comment there.
i rather sent british toops and occupy australia and remove those republicans from power and sent them to very perfect german concentration camps !!! RRRUUULLLEEE BRITANNIA RULE !!!!!!!
Don't brake whats not broke. Australia has one of the best political systems in the world. Going republic risks breaking a system that has served us well for hundreds of years. The union jack on our flag is not a sign of slavery. Its an emblem of our history, we are a nation of the commonwealth. As long as the Queen stays the fuck out of our business there is no need to change.
Why can't you jut be proud to be part of the Commonwealth. And listen up bro us Canadians Have been under Brittan's rule since 1764 and you know what I don't really mind.... you see maybe your just upset you got the union jack on your Flag.
@CrownRoyal1945 because the commonwealth was started by a man called oliver cromwell....and im of irish decent so fuck you and your union jack..we want our country back!
@Jedimindtrickitis you do have your country... as far as i know Britain hasn't invaded and stayed, and you know what Australia was practically founded by the British... so was Canada, America, New Zealend you get my point... and we don't have a union jack on our flag anymore... we used to but that was fifty something years ago mate. Remember we got a Maple leaf on our flag and I would Trade our leaf for your Union Jack any day of the week. Serious. God Save the Queen
@CrownRoyal1945 god save our ancient kings whose land was taken ultimately causing mass starvation in ireland....causing millions to flee, founding your country, my country and the states...the symbolism you see in our flag is why i want the union jack gone...
The desire for a republic and flag are legitimate aspirations. This video is inaccurate. Australia became a free nation in 1901, this was further recognised by her signing the Versailles Treaty in 1919 as a free nation and joining the League of Nations. In 1931 the Statute of Westminster clarified her independence once and for all and in the 1980s the constitution was fully repatriated to Australia. By all means call for a republic but dont ruin your argument with lies and inaccuracies.
AND I WILL CONTINUE TO PUT SOUTHERN CROSS STICKERS ON ANY NEW CAR I BUY THATS the part of our flag i've always liked THIS DESIGN has the big star and red strip that will become an ICON TOO
This flag is a rather poor attempt as a symbol for a nation.
more like something a 3rd world country would produce, or a creation of a child of American television upbringing.
I shall keep our banner of freedom high up on the flagpole of liberty any day, than see this garbage hoisted above the graves of those who gave their lives so gallantly in defence of the former.
@Jedimindtrickitis "ww2 is all that matters to you" no, what matters to me is correcting ignorant statements made by biased, rude and immature people.
"stop attacking my words" I will refute your points when they are completely wrong.
because of a promise by chamberlain for polish independence. that is why britain joined the war. and why should i even care about britain anyway? i am of Irish convict descent FUCK BRITAIN and its fuckin genocides you stupid brain washed fuck. Australia is for Australians. and the union jack is oppressive not just to the millions of Irish brutally forced and starved out of their lands but for the Aboriginals and every other type of people invaded by Britain. history goes past the world wars mate
*sigh* you really are not ready to have a discussion about history are you? i suggest you go spend a good decade growing up and gaining some maturity before you bother replying again. its just pathetic now.
@Jedimindtrickitis "not much to say for britains genocides hey mate theres a spoon full of history for ya"
are you a child? I gather that would explain your fascination with derogatory phrases. at what point have I EVER said ANYTHING about genocides? You made an ignorant and uninformed statement and I refuted it. I never said that the brits have never done anything wrong have I? its quite sad when you drag up a completely unrelated topic.
@AussiePolitics i still stand by my statement that britain failed to protect Australia and the yanks saved us. and your on here defending britain so you get the genocide spoon. also i would rather speak in derogatory terms(insults) than make every word unnecessarily long to seem intelligent. if you think im a child deal with it. cause it doesnt affect me what you think mate.
@Jedimindtrickitis now you do not even know what you had written. you did not say britain failed to protect us. you said that it ABANDONED US.
"genocide spoon" no that is petty and immature. you think that because I correct you on one point I have said britain has always been good? your comment is as stupid as saying all white people today are evil because slavery existed in the past.
@Jedimindtrickitis you dont have to write long words to sound intelligent but calling someone a cunt and a dick repeatedly and unnecessarily really does make you come across as a petty, immature and ignorant petulant child.
Hitler was allowed to conquer much of Europe, for various reasons, without fear of being stopped by Britain. Austria, Czechoslovakia and the Saar coalfields were all taken over by the Nazi regime. By September 1939, however, it was clear that Hitler would always want more, no matter how much the Allies sucked up to him, so, when Germany invaded Poland, it was apparent that appeasement had failed, so Britain went to war..
@Jedimindtrickitis actually the british and the french had a treaty with poland that said if it was invaded then they would come to its aid. that is why they entered the second world war. britain and france were hesitant at first when britain took back a lot of its old territory and started to expand because they were terrified of another world war that had bled them dry last time. they did everything in their power to avoid it but in the end had to act to protect europe.
@6Gizmo101 we dont hate yous. but a lot of pommys come on here sayin that aussies are british etc etc we just want a sovereign country thats all. and my opinion is definetly not the opinion of the majority of aussies who couldnt care less about history etc etc
Without the United Kingdom there would simply be no Australia. You act like the Brits came over and conquered the Australian people but I'm afraid to say the Australians are descendants of the British. There would be no such thing as an Australian without the British. Why don't you respect your heritage and be thankful instead of joining the the rest of the world and assuming that they weren't created by the Brits but without us there would be no Americans, Australians, Canadians orNewZealanders
@Catfeet100 those places all had people living their before british ships landed. and canada and the us have sovereign flags which is the point of this video
@Jedimindtrickitis Yes there were people in these countries before the Brits came along but they were backward, obsolete and weren't making any contribution to the world. The Brits modernised the world and without them Australia and other countries would still be third world states, poverty stricken and useless.
@Catfeet100 Funny most these people lived in harmony with their environment and had a better diet before the brutal brits invaded and forced their way of life on these people,brought their sicknesses and alcohol.
True maybe without British rule over countries like Australia they wouldn't have made contributions to our world, but the way Britain "modernized" the world was completely unacceptable. While i do understand that the British Empire did help countries form governments and provided education , the main focus was using the resources of the colonies for their selfish benefit. It told natives that their way of life was inferior and needed to be destroyed, suffering injustices afterwards
@Catfeet100 poverty stricken? useless? who the fuck says that you need to make a contribution to world? get fucked you backward obsolete wanker our aboriginals were very skilled....now not so much....due to european booze and racism they are all warped and distorted because people like you dont understand living without suckling off societys teet.
there is currently estimated to be 23 million pigs in australia, destroying the land and native animals. how many native animals are left in britain compared to australia? and yet you say the aboriginals are backward and obsolete? your a pig.
so almighty britain come kill 23 million pigs and save the land you tainted once again with your ignorant capitalist consuming.
@Catfeet100 Hah, i wonder what history was taught to you, probably from 19th century textbooks.The british have brought racial obliteration to Australia, and the Americas as well as slavery to half of Africa. Also if you think they modernised the places they ruled why are 90% of the ex british territories 3rd world when the british left?Also Most of the leaps in development of Australia have been since 1901, it is the hardwork of Australians not a blessing of the British crown.peace
@sushanalone The countries which the British settled in like Australia, New Zealand, USA and Canada are all highly developed first world countries which followed the British model of running a successful country. The third world ex British territories which you refer to are countries that are run by Africans and Asians. They were poverty stricken backward countries before we got there, and they're poverty stricken backward countries still.
@EnglishHuscarl USA actually kicked the british out,&almost all the progress made by the country has been since then.I would reiterate that also most of the progress made by Australia and NZ has been since they officially adopted their own constitution.A lot of "poor asian &african countries" of the commonwealth you are talking about have also adopted the british models and are still poor.The empire didnt give a fuck to thes now developed countries, it used them and they made their own destiny.
@sushanalone Yes the USA did kick us out. But the way their country developed was massively influenced by the British model, and even Americans will tell you that and refer to England as the mother country. I don't know what the hell you are talking about with Australia and New Zealand either, both of these countries would still be in the stone age if they hadn't been colonized by Britain.
@sushanalone ok forget it; if youd live for 500 years you would still say that neptune colony 224 is the superpower in the solar system because of 19th century British systems.And you will ignore all the hardwork, time money and all the lives spent in making Neptune colony 224 the superpower over 650 years.get over it mate.and peace
Australia is an infant nation that is the spiting image of my own like my Canadian neighbors to the north and east they need to shed the union jack from there flag this is a amazing idea
If we don't become a republic first we'll have to follow Canada or even worse New Zealand, I don't want Australia to follow New Zealand in anything, all commonwealths will become republics eventually it's just a matter of when and who goes first and Australia should take a leadership position on this do you want Australia to be a follower or a leader?....
AUSTRALIA is built by hard working immigrants such as chinese irish afghanis indians kiwis greeks lebanese germans russians pols romanians pacific islanders italians africans koreans vietnamese dutch english scottish yugoslavians etc etc OK these are the people that change the face of our country. these people vote you know.
@Jedimindtrickitis Yes but is it the Eureka stockade flag because you hate the poms? Because if it is, its for the wrong reasons and most of the republicans I've spoken to seem to be pommie bashers. I say this to them. Its all Bullshit, lies lies and more bullshit propaganda and you've all swollowed it hook line and sinker.
@Amunication LOL. Well, like I said just to be sensible, there are the same proportion of arseholes in one nationality as there is in another. So, you're 25 and you like computer games. Hmnn, I see. And you're obviously prejudiced, against the British. Well, are you perchance a racist as well? I'm on here because I now have an illness and my wife and kids have to do things for me but this passes the time. When I was 25 I wasn't on the computer as much as you. I was shagging women. He he.
@Jedimindtrickitis tut tut tut...throwing your toys out of your pram again I see. Have you got an anger management problem or something? You're starting to sound just like Mel Gibson but at least that son of Australia has the excuse of having been damaged by Christian brothers. What's yours?
@Jedimindtrickitis Really? You're positive about that one? There isn't a large proportion of Australians living in the UK? In fact so many, there are jokes about it (not necessarily detrimental to Oz). Are you sure that immigration into the UK isn't SIGNIFICANTLY from Australia as well? In fact so much so that I used to work with three Aussies in a team of eight. Even famous venues in London that are expat like "The Redback" and "Backpackers" Loads of Aussies becoming UK citizens.
@Jedimindtrickitis Scotland IS the UK. You mean you hope that Scotland ditches England? I doubt it very very very much indeed considering the Scottish Nationalist Party only holds 6 out of 59 Scottish seats in Parliament.
@Jedimindtrickitis Dear oh dear, you are full of the insults today. I'm not an imperialist you know? And "uneducated"...hmm well let me recall..it was from my education that I learned the union occured when the Scottish king was invited to become the King of England as well. Positives? Well you end up with someone like President Howard with whom Australian servicemen and women have to pledge alliegence. A man who is no longer an equal above equals but has executive power too.
@likeitout yes im not sayin YOU are uneducated but the people of scotland are due to thier voting choices #1. #2 the positive side is the re writing of our constitution. have a good day mate
@Jedimindtrickitis LMAO. Please explain to me which pedistal pf perfection upon which you sit above the voters of Scotland that makes you closer to god/enlightenment/virtue/education or even Buddah that gives you the utmost monopoly of truth in which to decide you know better than those voters? And a written constitution does not necessarily mean a better constitution than an unwritten evolved constitution. Are you anti British because you see yourself as a product of past historic injustice?
@likeitout that pedestal is called democracy and i am entitled to my political opinion. what are the benefits of the monarchy/commonwealth anymore..you have no points to be made at all. game over dickhead.
@Jedimindtrickitis Resorting to personal insults demonstrates to everyone your lack of humility, respect and inability to respond in a civil way. I've never called you names You said "the people of Scotland are uneducated due to their voting choices" so you obviously think you know better than the majority of VOTING Scottish public. Isn't that a little arrogant? I mean you say they're uneducated because the ONLY system is rupublican? Everywhere I see fucked up countries they're republics
@Jedimindtrickitis (cont).. Why do you think that is? I could list 1000 reasons why Rwanda wanted an independent impartial head of state. And a few million 'dead' good reasons. Did you know that the attempted Military coup in Spain by Tejero failed because of the Monarchy where if there had been a political presidency then Spain would have reverted to the evil days of Franco. No bad thing that Australian Soldiers swear an oath to Australia and a non political powerless Queen of Australia
@Jedimindtrickitis There are drawbacks and benefits to all systems including totalitarianism, or one party systems like communism. But democratic constitutional Monarchism like that of the UK, Belgium, Holland, Norway, Sweden, loads of nations, has its benefits too. Ireland has tred to emulate that with its non partisan presidential system. Did you know that Ireland were recently discussing a return to the commonwealth? Did you also know that Rwanda NEVER a British colony has recently joined?
@Jedimindtrickitis And would it be possible for you to answer my question please? Are you anti British because you see yourself as a product of past historic injustice? For example, the way Britain sent its convicts as forced colonists to Australia, some of whom did nothing more than steal bread to stem starvation. Or the Irish fleeing the potato famine seen as British oppression? Are these your reasons that you yourself are anti British AND REPUBLIAN because of these reasons?
dont you get it fuck off mate go make some more congestion taxes or some shit and stop slowin Australia down with your tradionalist british patriot bullshit.
@likeitout what your saying about mel gibson is quite scary..next your going to say that he is a zionic jew that works for the fuckin illuminati. you obviously hate irish people to form such strange ideas. and yes the british shot the indians, the british shot mauris the british shot aboriginals (thats how its spelt)
@Jedimindtrickitis Mel? a Zionist jew??? Are you kidding? He's a jew HATER. He HATES HATES and HATES, he hates blacks, protestants, jews and Brits, thats what defines him as insane. He's also Irish Australian. I on the other hand hate nobody. Google his latest shenanigens! He's persona non grata in holywood at the moment. I take it that Australians are cleared of any wrong doing regardng the systematic genocide of the Aboriginal population of Australia then?
@Jedimindtrickitis And just to add to my last comment, yes, I DON'T HATE ANYBODY. There are the same proportion of arseholes in one nationality as there is in another. I hate ignorance, whether its from an Irish national, Australian or from a Brit. A German baby is as innocent as an Israeli baby as is an Inuit child or a British todler and to demonstrate prejudice s wrong, whether it be racism OR Nazi anti semitism or pommie bashing is wrong. I hope I demonstrated ths to you.
@Jedimindtrickitis "Traditional British patriot bullshit".. Hmmn let me see. Sportsmanship. Is that a "Traditional British Patriot Bullshit" thing then? Shall we mention lots of other British traditions adopted in Australia as well? Right to trial by your peers? Inncocent until proven guilty? Freedom of association, speech? Is Australia going to be "less" traditionalist I take it? Drop the christmas BBQ? Take the Bush hats from the army?
i state the fact again that as more and more immigrants come to this country the more votes the commonwealth will lose it is just a matter of time until Australia becomes a republic.

Removing the union jack would be a sign that Australia has finally grown up and isn't just a holiday home for ex-pat Brits and a source of cannon fodder for English wars. Brendan Jones reconciliation flag from 1995 would be a great replacement, it keeps the Southern Cross but combines it with the Aboriginal flag colours.

Changing the flag is an insult! Taking away the pride of actually being Australian, This Flag is perfect for the country i cannot see a reason to change it. If you don't like the flag you are born with, then get out of the country. If the day that Australia becomes a republic i'm out of here, If muslims, asians and indians out-number us here and we become a republic, their ways of life will be forced upon us and we wont have freedom like we do now. The flag we have now is a symbol of freedom

I say no to making Australia a republican. Without the british monarchy, we wouldn't be were we are today. I've grown up all my life under the british constitution making our own laws fair. I do not want our nation under islamic law, turning our country into a terrorist country. Australia will never become a republic. Not while the queen is still on the throne. Neither will country change wether british royal are heir to the throne as is past from generation to generation.

As to whether the Crown of Australia is Australian or not is really messy and ambiguous, and the Royalists do go on...

Australia is an independent country and has been for a long time. The problem I have with the current flag is not necessarily the Union Jack, but I believe any Australian flag should be in our national colours of green and gold. Our Olympians win gold medals in green and gold, but at the medal ceremony, up goes a red,white and blue flag. Keep the current flag if you want, just make it green and gold.

The desire for a republic and flag are legitimate aspirations. This video is inaccurate. Australia became a free nation in 1901, this was further recognised by her signing the Versailles Treaty in 1919 as a free nation and joining the League of Nations. In 1931 the Statute of Westminster clarified her independence once and for all and in the 1980s the constitution was fully repatriated to Australia. By all means call for a republic but dont ruin your argument with lies and inaccuracies.

Hitler was allowed to conquer much of Europe, for various reasons, without fear of being stopped by Britain. Austria, Czechoslovakia and the Saar coalfields were all taken over by the Nazi regime. By September 1939, however, it was clear that Hitler would always want more, no matter how much the Allies sucked up to him, so, when Germany invaded Poland, it was apparent that appeasement had failed, so Britain went to war..

@Jedimindtrickitis actually the british and the french had a treaty with poland that said if it was invaded then they would come to its aid. that is why they entered the second world war. britain and france were hesitant at first when britain took back a lot of its old territory and started to expand because they were terrified of another world war that had bled them dry last time. they did everything in their power to avoid it but in the end had to act to protect europe.

He's also Irish Australian. I on the other hand hate nobody. Google his latest shenanigens! He's persona non grata in holywood at the moment. I take it that Australians are cleared of any wrong doing regardng the systematic genocide of the Aboriginal population of Australia then?

@Jedimindtrickitis And just to add to my last comment, yes, I DON'T HATE ANYBODY. There are the same proportion of arseholes in one nationality as there is in another. I hate ignorance, whether its from an Irish national, Australian or from a Brit. A German baby is as innocent as an Israeli baby as is an Inuit child or a British todler and to demonstrate prejudice s wrong, whether it be racism OR Nazi anti semitism or pommie bashing is wrong. I hope I demonstrated ths to you.

@Jedimindtrickitis "Traditional British patriot bullshit".. Hmmn let me see. Sportsmanship. Is that a "Traditional British Patriot Bullshit" thing then? Shall we mention lots of other British traditions adopted in Australia as well? Right to trial by your peers? Inncocent until proven guilty? Freedom of association, speech? Is Australia going to be "less" traditionalist I take it? Drop the christmas BBQ? Take the Bush hats from the army?
