I like the Poms. I deal with quite a few of them. You can take the p##s out of a Pom but he'll give it back to you in spades...........

More to come to our country. Great! I guess that can't get over the fact of losing the ashes and coming to Australia will remove this dismay.

As an ethnic group most english are too racist for my liking.
Always slurring other cultures/religions with their "humour".

I have relo's from pommy land come visiting from time to time , and friends and never found them to be racist, in fact I have to say they would give anyone the shirt off their backs, and would not say a bad word agaist anyone, im not a pommy by the way, but thats how i found them, but you can find a few bad eggs anywere I think..... in australia too.

I didn't even think this topic to be thread-worthy, in all honesty. At least the English assimilate well: the same can't be said for a lot of other minorities - but, let's not go into that.

The way their country is going, who can blame them.
Maybe we can swap them for the pro multiculturalists who want to drag this land down to their utopia resembling the third world.
