Fuck. 18/20 (12 to pass). Dammit, there goes my point :P
Seriously. The hell. What the fucking hell. Here's your new test, if you can peel yourself away from Bush's cock long enough to pay attention:
Can you speak english at a functional level for the society you will be living in? Y/N
Are you a wanker of a higher accord than most QLD'ers? Y/N
Are you aware that by becoming an Australian Citizen, you will be expected to ACT like a citizen of Australia? Y/N
You're in. Unless you answered Y to the second one, or N to the third, in which case fuck off. (it probably doesn't help that I live in Melbourne, where we mostly play nice and lack the Sydney insanity)
Mind you. i'm rather persnickity. Seriously, we have a population deficit approaching? So get a shitload of immigrants in, train 'em up (if needed), give them citizenship, and fill the hole that way. Or just export the boomers, either way it's all good. Just stop fucking eying off my womb and expect me to punch out babies for the fatherland.

Date: 2007-08-31 10:02 am (UTC)We're having the opposite problem here. Mexicans (NSW and Victorians) are moving here at a rate of knots. We have an inflow of about 1200 new residents PER WEEK.
The strain on our infrastructure is insane, it's caused the level 5 (soon to be 6) water restrictions, massive traffic problems, housing issues that outstrip just about anywhere and a lot more problems.
Yeah. You want more people? you fuckin take em.

Twats.
With the population, I was referring to fucking Howards demented ideas of racial purity. Seriously, that's what it comes down to. Baby bonuses my arse, you just want more whites for when the boomers shuffle off and have no one to pay their fucking pensions.
Piss on 'em. And piss on Howard.
