Why you guys don't rule the world anymore

[GeorgeGregan]

You make people pay £120 a year for a bunch of soap operas nobody wants to watch

Somebody manages to convince kids to eat real food, parents respond by passing lard over the school fence

Paper license is more important than the plastic one with the photo

Your politicians think a period of consultation can solve any problem

You release the most dangerous criminal immigrants rather than deport them

You think your little island is a completely separate place from "Europe"

It's more important to waste billions of £ than admit that the NHS is outdated

It's more important to cling to the idea that A-levels mean something than give universities something useful to rank entrants with

You have to plant 1000 trees to compensate for christmas lights on oxford street, but most people live in uninsulated houses

You're going to get walloped at the cricket

OK over to you Mailman...

Dammit! Agree with everything except point (1). We wouldn't want the Australian Broadcasting Corporation now would we?

But this is probably the only country in the world which even bought an australian soap.

Listen, Mate, can I have a pint of Fosters and a 8 ounce Abbo Burger, with Onion Rings? Cheers, Mate

No, people pay £120 a year for a bunch of soaps because too many people want to watch them. Not enough lard in our diets you see. The world wars were won by lard.

We used to deport dangerous criminals until we discovered they were upsetting the aborigines. Now we just send nonentities there.

And isn't Australia a desert island just off New Zealand?

its because lard makes you happy. Everyone knows that, surley!?

At least the ABC has a clear charter and doesn't p iss taxpayer's money up the wall trying to compete with commercial stations.

Oxymoron of the day - Great Australian drama

You make people pay £120 a year for a bunch of soap operas nobody wants to watch

International Emmy Awards 2006 - British TV wins 6 out of 7 categories. Australian TV wins nothing yet again. If only there had been an award for reckless nature presenters. Has there EVER been a quality Australian drama series, or is it all banality in the suburbs?
