This is a load of balls, Australia is still a great place to live compared with the majority of countries in the world.



As long as you're white and healthy.


Australia is a country with free health care available to all citizens and no constitutional right to free speech. Hence laws banning making racist statements in public(amongst a great many other anti discrimination laws)

You are deluded


"Australia is a country with free health care available to all citizens"

The Abbott gov wants to end this. The Liberal party in general has been busy dismantling Medicare for years.

"no constitutional right to free speech. Hence laws banning making racist statements in public"

This is a drastic oversimplification of a very complex debate.

I love Australia, I live here, and probably always will.

But... We need to wake up to ourselves because the way we're going isn't pretty.
