Mr Garnut Gumpal must be feeling very pleased with himself for the way this bit of whimsy has progressed.
(Rest of Sthn Hemisphere, perhaps, and I'd take it seriously)
And we will bail them out no doubt so that a few idiots can go ski-ing in Queenstown.
Interesting. I misread the purpose, then. After the polarising absolutes espoused in the 2 other similarly titled threads, I assumed a bit of levity, with inconsequentiality to the fore. But I see your point.I can assure you that this thread was started with utmost seriousness as I can see Australia being dragged in to save these wellington booted numbskulls. They closed their whole economy down, had no income, did less well on the stats viz a viz coronavirus on a per capita basis, and now expect us to bail them out

To be honest I do sometimes egg it.Interesting. I misread the purpose, then. After the polarising absolutes espoused in the 2 other similarly titled threads, I assumed a bit of levity, with inconsequentiality to the fore. But I see your point.
If we are forced to deal with New Zealand might it not be worthwhile to do it gradually and admit The South Island in to The Commonwealth of Australia as an easing so to speak, and then if there are no adverse effects on Australia put admitting the North Island to a referendum.
Naturally the people of The South Island would be entitled to vote on this as would all the States and Territories of Australia, but NOT The North Island of New Zealand. .

My dear @Porper .As I live in New Zealand (North Island) I would like the right to vote.
The reason being I work for an Australian company.
I also travel to Australia once every 2 years for work, supporting your economy. I get paid in AUD.
The Subway shop in Auckland will be more chill than any here in Oz, so should become an iconic and worthwhile investment, like the Beehive in Wellington.Been to New Zealand a few times. Love it. They are more chill than us.
I was there recently and Auckland is getting an underground subway! All that volcanic rock, it must be costing a fortune.
Great video. Cardona on my wish list now.The Subway shop in Auckland will be more chill than any here in Oz, so should become an iconic and worthwhile investment, like the Beehive in Wellington.
Speaking of iconic, best T-shirt ever was from here.
Sir GarpalMy dear @Porper .
I am quite sure that there are some who live in Mexico or Botswana who would like to be citizens of The Commonwealth of Australia and vote with the South Island of New Zealand and the States and Territories of Australia in my proposed referendum.
Will you settle for Governor of Queenstown @rederob ?Sir Garpal
I am willing to prepare a letter to the Queen proposing that Queensland annex Queenstown, as a forerunner to any referendum.
As you will note, this is a very natural State of Affairs amongst all queens.
Gratuitously
Your Minion
That is one nice standard.
Paid for by selling the volcanic rock for use in BBQ's, meaning that Australians and Americans will be footing the bill in practice.I was there recently and Auckland is getting an underground subway! All that volcanic rock, it must be costing a fortune.
You obviously didn't fly to Brisbane, it's full of KiwisAnd to think I used to have to climb on a plane and travel at least 3 hours to find a place full of Bloody Australians
All the best
