One less thing for Poms to whinge about when in Aus.
The Bill is set to come to an end.
Which means Poms who move to Australia won't be able to whinge about Aus screenings being a year behind the UK's any more.
Looks like there's an opening for an expat Pom who hates everything Australian to set up a business offering alternative whinge topics.

Why is calling poms "whinging" not xenophobic?

It's called "projection". Their worst fears about themselves are coming out.

Nope but we deal Aussies who come here and moan like buggery about everything.

Why are you surprised? People who emigrate from here to Australia don't do it because their life has been such a fantastic success, they do it because their life is shyte.

Because they think Australia is going to be a hot version of how Britain was 50 years ago.

Because success stories go to America, failures to Australia.

It's a (mostly) warm version of Britain now. You'd be hard pressed to find two more similar countries, no matter what Tourism Australia say (and off the record, they agree by the way).

And hence they are disappointed, I guess.

Well, teasing apart, no they aren't. They feel at home straight away - for exactly that reason. Same reason Aussies feel at home when they come here.

Tragic that they are taking it off.

To be fair though, I reckon we've been whinging a bit less just lately. Maybe we're finally coming to terms with our many inadequacies and starting to respect you properly.embee wrote:eowyn wrote:Why is calling poms "whinging" not xenophobic?

It's a shame Shoeshine didn't come back.
