      We left NZ 20 years ago, as we could see the writing on the wall and Labour's ardern seriously rootd the country during her socialist commie reign. And we would never go back, as Australia has been fantastic to us, still is in comparison to the likes of UK, the EU, and if Trump gets cheated out of his rights, to make America great again, your country will also be rootd like NZ and the EU, and the UK. We just feel for our family in Wales.

    Actually voting or filling in the ballot papers is NOT compulsory but what is compulsory is that you have your name crossed off the listed of names on the electoral role when each election is held. But you don't have to physically vote if you don't want to. The is no CCTV camera above each voting booth watching what you do in that booth and your name is not on the ballot papers. When you put your ballot papers in the marked boxes there's an AEC official standing there to make sure you put the right ballot paper in the right box but they have no right whatsoever to see who you have or haven't voted for. If you decide for some reason to show them your vote is declared invalid and the your ballot papers are destroyed.
    All elections are held on a Saturday and local groups show up to sell things and offer food making it a carnival like atmosphere. The democracy sausage is well ingrained Australian tradition at elections. It's a proper sausage on a slice of bread with tomato sauce and if you get there early enough, onions too and you have to buy it if you want it.

    #47 - Currency is probably most famous for the notes being made of plastic instead of cotton paper.
    #38 - Enrolment to vote & attendance at a polling booth are compulsory. Voting after check-in is secret, therefore optional.
    #26 - Despite being among the most venomous, snakes typically retreat to avoid conflict unless accidentally stepped upon.
    #21 - Bob Hawke became Prime Minister almost 3 decades after this beer drinking infamy. He reformed his image.
    #00 - Established as UK's remote convict dump after USA achieved independence.

    New Zealand did legislate for women's right to vote in 1893. In 1894, the colony of South Australia became the second place to do that and in 1895 the first to give women the right to stand for election to parliament. In 1899, Western Australia also gave women the right to vote.
    The Commonwealrh of Australia came into existence on 1 January 1901. South Australia and Western Australia became States within the federation, New Zealand did not. In 1902, the Commonwealth gave women in all States the rights to vote and stand for election in federal elections.

      Unless of course these women were Aboriginal, their women were not given the same kind of rights that you're so confidently boasting about. The women you are talking about were WHITE women, in other words IMMIGRANTS, which brings us back to, "but these women were born here", maybe so, but just because a dog is born in a stable, it doesn't become a horse. YOU invaded Australia which is the land of the Aboriginals. Now it's being invaded again and YOU as the original immigrants, don't like it, Pot, Kettle, Black, comes to mind!

    You didn't explain why Burger King is called Hungry Jacks here. You just said that it is.
    The reason is that when Burger King started here in the 70s there was a tiny little hamburger shop in Queensland that already had the name. Burger King tried to bully them into giving it up, but the court ruled in favour of the little shop. So they went with Hungry Jacks instead
    That shop is long gone now. A few years back, Hungry Jacks tried to change their name to Burger King, but no-one knew who they were, so they stuck with Hungry Jacks

    We visited family in 2003 when we retired and drove to many places on our own first. I found the Aussies friendly and thought Victoria in the south a bit like lovely Devon in England but obviously larger. The only miserable person we came across (in 3 months there) was a waitress in Noosa where I had a steak in a restaurant and I could not get my teeth through it (my husband's steak was good). But she was quite rude to me as if it was 'my' fault the steak was tough! However she was the only Aussie who was rude. Also we bought fish and chips in a south coast shop, they were the worst we'd "ever" tasted (fish was nearly raw inside the soft batter. Other than that we thought highly of Australia and the food was great. One day up the east coast we got out of our hire-car to study a map. A man pulled up, introduced himself and helped us to find where we were heading. Fantastic, how kind of him. Also I felt more at home walking along the High Street of Sydney than I do (nowadays) in my own local city. Well done Aussies, thank you for lovely memories. We love you and your beautiful country - from beautiful Warwickshire, England.

    All countries have problems and Australia is no different. I retired here after living in US , UK, and NZ, only because medical services are free if you’re not in a hurry, ER in hospitals are free if no insurance.
    AU is around the same age as USA but nowhere near as developed,
    Racism is alive and well and history tells u of aboriginal women being raped and all half caste children were taken and put into religious boarding schools. There is now a Stolen generation still trying to find their parents.
    Alcoholism is a way of life, domestic violence is rife, teens run wild at night .
    There are only 3 train lines . One from The north east to Central area then u have to go inland by coach for an hr to continue to Sydney.
    Another train takes u to Melbourne and another to Perth on the west coast. If want to travel north to Darwin there is only one line and it’ll cost u $3000!
    Homelessness is at crisis point with the cost of housing being out of reach to the working classes. Drugs are becoming a real problem with Fentanyl coming in on ships.
    Alcohol has always been a problem in AU as there nothing to do unless you live in a major city and even then hotels and bars are everywhere. Drunken fights on the city streets is common and quite a few tourists go home in a black bag!
    Of course the obvious downside is the poisonous snakes , spiders , and many toxic sea creatures.
    Huge crocodiles swim in the sea on northern beaches along with sharks so swimming is only in netted areas.
    There’s plenty more negatives but there’s no time to tell all.
    The positives are mainly the rugged scenery of the interior but that’s best viewed by helicopter. That’s why camels were brought here , they’re about the only way to travel the interior.
    Happy travels!

Eastern Browns are extremely aggressive but also have enough venom per bite to kill 10 adults, we also have the world's most venomous spider (male) Sydney Funnel Web can and has killed both adults and children and also the same species as the US Black Widow but they're seen just as pests, not a threat here), the world's most / only? venomous octopus in the Blue Ring (mainly NSW south of Sydney), which can kill in a few minutes, the world's most venomous jellyfish (Qld's " box jellyfish) again can kill in minutes) possibly the world's most dangerous bird (Qld's Casuary) which is very territorial and can disembowel people with a quic kick, the unique and often misunderstood as timid or gentle kangaroo (also capable of a disembowelled kick and also for drowning threads in dams, rivers etc (particularly during breeding season and mothers with joeys), large amounts of sharks including several known to attack or kill people, and also parasitic species varying from tics, leeches, and worst of all, politicians, that want suck the life out of all they can, not as friendly environment as its often shown to be (especially the final one which is widespread throughout the continent but I still wouldn't live anywhere else for shit
