It's the Alzheimer's. Can't blame Oz companies' policies on those they wish to employ, mate. Pick on the companies themselves if you want to change things.

The Ozmates I know are all a good bunch and have no problems with others, although most have worked outside Oz as expats themselves so probably see it from a different point of view. Saffers will probably have less problems assimilating into Oz society because of the similarities and are usually bright enough to adapt their culture to fit into their new home. Those who don't integrate are more than likely in a minority and should rethink their choices if they want to be happy where they are. It takes a generation or so to become completely Oz so give it time, rather than get wound up. We're all immigrants or descendants of immigrants of one kind or another.

As for Go Right, he's proof Oz is a liberal progressive society. In SA we put our plonkers in parliament where we can keep an eye on them instead of letting them loose on the street without a minder...
