It must be a generational thing because I simply don't get it. The kind of response you post stating every 'Tom Dick and Harry' makes me think you are the typical Daily Mail-reading racist expat that'll probably get along fine with the redneck locals in rural Queensland. Australia is a country of immigrants if you hadn't noticed, what do you expect to find there, a Ku Klux Klan convention. Melbourne and Sydney in particular have huge immigrant belts where you wouldn't see many a white face, you would be shocked!

Sorry Gags
I think you are wrong. I am not racist and never have been, In my line of work I deal with lots of different nationalities and may I say with respect. I supposebly live on the outskirts of one of the worst cities in the UK (HULL). Life has changed so much and yes we do have a lot of different nationalities living in the UK who will do jobs that a lot of people won't. Maybe a few years down the line you may wonder why you ever came back.
How would you feel if you had a child who was beat up just because they didn't like the way he was dressed. This was by a group white youths who had been drinking. If they had got him on the floor they would of killed him.
Please don't judge us when you don't know why we want to leave the UK.
