Any sport we decide to take seriously and really get into we destroy you in, my friend.

Football?

Let me guess, you don't take it seriously?

Of course not, probably our 5th biggest sport, if even that.

We didn't take cricket 'seriously' during that decade you beat us................Everything you have now said has become invalid.

Touche. But I'll stop now, getting too heated. Can you show me some more lovely pictures of England?

For your wank bank?

Of course! *Gets tissues ready*

Because we're superior, obviously.

Not really. Aside from a more glorified history, there's nothing else that the UK is genuinely better at this particular point in time. The economy might be larger but we're not facing a meltdown unlike the UK (thanks, China, you can dig up all of Western Australia and ship it off). And unless you happen to be an Indigenous Australian, you are far better off in Australia than in the UK. Getting down to the more human aspects:

Culture- If you like visiting Museums every week and attending plays or piano recitals or whatever, obviously the UK is infinitely superior. Australia lacks a white collar upper class culture. If you want blue collar, meat pie, doing burnouts in a bright red Holden Commodore and shouting at immigrants, this is the place.

Education- I've never been educated in England, so I'm not in a place to comment here, though I will certainly vouch for the excellence of our system.

Life expectancy- Australia shades this by a year, and the margin would be far higher if we treated our Aboriginal people's fairly.

Human rights and crime- In the UK, you get fucked over for saying some things on Twitter. Over here we can scream Paki and Wog as loud as we like and no one gives a fuck. Also Australia is fairly crime free. There are few instances of organised crime in Australia, apart from small time Chinese/Vietnamese Triads and Italian Mafia groups, which all act hard but are ultimately all talk, no action.

Healthcare- Our healthcare system is fairly inefficient, but there aren't any efficient healthcare systems anywhere in the world, so who really cares?

Politics- Much like every other democracy in the world, Australian choices are limited between choosing one cunt or the other. Two party states are awful.

Sport- The UK may have the edge at this moment in time, but we have a world class pedigree in both rugbies, cricket, cycling, swimming and tennis. In the latter 3, England are Johhny-Come-Lately's. You were nobodies in those 3 sports barely 5 years ago, whereas Australia hit the top in cycling and swimming by 2000.

Marital life- Australia has a marginally lower divorce rate than the UK

Climate and Geography- Should I even bother? A simple way of putting it is that it's midwinter in Australia right now and it was just 6 degrees colder in Sydney today than it was in London.

That covers just about everything, I think.

We're such a multicultural country we respect all

Outstanding.

I was clearly being sarcastic. If you read on to my further post you will clearly see that sarcasm expressed once again. Retard.

[capriccioso 2,545]

Lol, we're a better sporting nation. When was the last time a Brit won a Grand Slam? Or the last time a Brit won Paris-Roubaix? When was the last time you got more than 50 Olympic medals? When was the last time you did anything in your sport, football?

Or the Tour De France....................Oh wait!!! When was the last time I gave a fuck?

What further post? It took me about 10 minutes to pull together all the data to support that. Suddenly after I clicked post 10 replies showed up out of nowhere.

[We Hate Scouse 10,287]

At the end of the day we don't take any of those sports you said or any sport you may refer to in the future seriously. GTFO.

They really made you want to come right?? We're so smart sending all the convicts to a country that has better weather, scenery, minerals and resources and staying here in "Great" Britain.

[capriccioso 2,545]

We beat you to your first ever Grand Tour win. As did every other major English speaking nation:

-1986 (USA)

-1987 (Ireland)

-2011 (Australia)

-2012 (Canada)

So basically, you've beaten New Zealand, and that's about it.

This made me LOL so much.

Leeds and Hull would disagree with you on the rugby parts. As will the millions of bandwagon hoppers British cycling will soon gain.

And that's a good thing?
