The British empire spread death, darkness and disease to those poor unfortunate societies that had no sophisticated means of militarization and defence.
British history is stained with blood and littered with the corpses of societies and cultures they extinguished.
but our so called Australian FLAG has the union jack in the corner
,,,,our head of state is the ruling British Monarch
----our commander and chief of our military forces is officially this Monarch's representative, the governor general (ironically the next GG will be a retired General)
Are we a nation?
New Zealanders have more balls than us AUstralians. They enforce a nuclear free zone in the country and surrounding sovereign waters. No exceptions, and that means the USA and the UK - as well. NOBODY enters with nukes or nuke powered vessels or aircrafts.
Australia? Well we bend over daily and get Yanky and British reaming - unlubricated.
The NZ government will have a referendum this year to change their flag. They want to replace the Union Jack in the corner with something more distinctively New Zealand. They feel that their flag is not recognised internationally and is often confused with other flags such as the Australian flag.
We continue to bend over and lie to ourselves.
