Timeti says "It was alot safer back with the white Australia Policy." Safe for whites but Hell On Earth for non-whites and Aboriginals.
BTW: Even though Aussies fought and died to save Britain in two World Wars, Britain refused to allow Australians to have Australian passports until 1949. We were British subjects and Mother England wanted to control our movements.
When Britain joined the EEC, she dumped imperial preference and cut us loose. At British airports there were lines for British citizens, lines for EEC citizens and lines for Aliens. Guess were loyal Australians had to line up?
Britain was not called Perfidious Albion for nothing. It's time to ditch the last remnants of British power by burying the White Australia Policy forever.
