Dunno if that is totally accurate. It happened to us Aussies. We were English (or British in the case of the Irish) citizens relocated to Australia by the English government to a penal colony on the other side of the world. It sucks stealing a loaf of bread when you are starving. So I guess it did happen to your race even if you had forgotten that part of your national history. Aint history a bitch rotfl


Nigel,

I think the ones who left our shores went to make a better life and paid £10.00 for the privileged, hey Nigel £10.00 was a lot of money then, be lucky if you or me could live in Australia now, I don't have £250,000 I could bank with them for my NI. Australian Border Patrol would see us off on the next plane.
You can all come and live here, we don't mind...
