[QUOTE=Wintermute]Tony Blair is the Prime Minister. The American equivalent would be Bush, not Howard.[/QUOTE]

Heres another one.

I'm not American.

Not the point - Blair is the British equivalent of Bush, not of Howard. Having heard of Blair means nothing.

So what if you're not American? Doesn't mean you don't know more about America than me.

Heheh, your missing the point im trying to make.


John Howard is Australia's PM :)

Fair enough. It's a funny thing, but Australia just doesn't feature in British news. Whatever the link twixt him and Bush, I didn't know of it. And I can guarantee that if I didn't know about it, neither did the majority of the British populace.

Ahh, I see.

Yeah, theres lots of anti war people over here that hate howard as he'll do anything to be in america's good books.

Blair gets the same treatment, you should have seen how many newspaper cartoons drew him as Bush's lapdog.

I c. We have that too.

Wurd.

There was actually a big rant about the way that Australia simply does not occur in the UK media a while ago in Politics, News and World Issues subforum. I don't remember when I last heard Australia mentioned. And I work in a Newsagent.

... No, really can't think of anything... it was probably Irwin dangling babies in front of big reptiles. And yes, I know Australians hate him, don't worry.

I didnt know John Howard was the Australian PM either.

Wintermute has got it by saying the people of the UK just dont hear about Aus.

yeah i dont think i have heard any news about australia before

When I was in grade school we had this huge "map of the world" that got painted on the concrete on our lunch area and it didn't have Austrailia. :p After they found out they screwed up they painted it in during the next summer.
