Re: Why do the British have disdain for the Australians?
My wife came from Australia and I lived there for eight months 20 years ago and toured all over the place. I met all of her extended family and friends, I worked in a couple of places for a while too.
I remember flying into Sydney airport after spending the previous month visiting New York, San Francisco and Hawaii and feeling strangely depressed walking through the airport on what should have been an exciting moment.

As time went on I began to think that horrible feeling I had was my first ever instinctive premonition as I grew to despise a lot of the kind of people that I met there. As a friendly, up front person with no shit motives I was surprised how unfriendly Australians were toward me ,including some of my wife's family, as well as just random people I had dealings with every day. I began to think my values etc were inferior to theirs, that I was a dickhead. However when I did a lot of hostelling and working with foreigners to the country, which was an incredible relief to meet and be merry with, and from their stories of Australian behaviour mirroring mine I knew there was something disconcerting about the whole bloody society.

There are plenty of decent minded ones of course but there are many collective cultural forces that afflict the entire feel of the country. For example, a destructive inferiority complex especially towards the British, possibly due to the convict cringe (even though most present day Australians' ancestors were not convicts). I think this phenomenon makes them childish, sulky and sullen like teenagers, even below the tedious, rivalrous "Pommie" banter, there is a petulance among the macho types. The blokey man's man stuff is also wafer thin - my father in law was an ocker and his patter was just so predictable and shallow, even though he was successful in political circles.

An all pervading atmosphere of xenophobia occurs there, as if their embarrassment of being stuck-out there, isolated and insular is known, and so their defence is to mock others the mockery they believe everyone is giving to them.
I don't believe the mateyness as it is only show, maybe not amongst themselves. I think fear causes a lot of functions in an Australian man possibly derived from their horror of the Aboriginal who they have treated very badly over the years and still have a manic inner terror from.I could still pick-up the desolation from the land that was taken from them and the cruelty inflicted on them. Everyone is racist there and not just towards different colours.

It is a desperation to be loved that conflicts with their stand alone, can-do belief in themselves.
When they are in a foreign country and I can vouch for them being in the UK, I sense a dimension missing in them in a way I sense in no other visitor here. A true lostness like a little boy feels for his dead mother. A very sad place overall then, because the Australian state stole the land, the guilt laid over the repulsion and fear they feel for the originals, sadness for all supposedly being expelled from Mother England, sadness that all quality culture comes from elsewhere, sadness at having to try so hard only for few to even notice. If you ever go there see if you can pick up on that vibe as well.
I could go on and every country has it's bad parts of course, but Australia is a superficial place which hides behind the marketing of modern values, so in conclusion I found it to be a woeful place full of two-faced wankers.

It’s true, I can’t stand Australians. I don’t know why because they haven’t done anything to me. I just can’t stand them. In fact, I hate everyone.

Dood! No one calls Maoris poofters; they'll beat you to death by ripping your limbs off and smacking you with them...

That's actually why we like Kiwis.

British people are funny, for those who have acquired the taste of British humor. Monty Python and Allo Allo.

It's mainly the disgraceful way they used the ANZACs as cannon fodder in WWI. Up until then every colony, including Canada and Ireland, were expendable dross in the eyes of the British establishment. But we all know it's the other way round.

Because they can't tell the difference between Australian, New Zealander and South African accents, so you have all these New Zealanders and South Africans over in the UK (especially London where they outnumber Australians 2 to 1) acting like complete fuckwits and the locals are just assuming they're Australians.
