Well Well Well. Take Heed Westminster.

AT LAST someone with BALLS..... Prime Minister Julia Gillard - Australia Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia , as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks. Separately, Gillard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying she supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques. Quote: 'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.' 'This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom' 'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society. Learn the language!' 'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.' 'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.' 'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.' 'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted!!

Re: Well Well Well. Take Heed Westminster.

I wouldn't argue with that - I would like to see all countries take a similar stance on immigration. I have reservations about the "God" bit though. Government(s) and God(s) should be kept separate, I think. Also what about the Aboriginal people of Australia (they weren't Christian and they were there first).

Sadly it is a hoax, it was credited to the Australian Prime Minister John Howard back in 2008.
This is about the third version.

Well I was caught out too. I would not try to hoax you.

Perhaps the Admin would remove this as I can't find the delete button.

I didn't think that Roxy - don't bother about it. It would have been good if it had been true though

I would not give it a second thought Roxy, it happens all the time. It is a similar thing with bogus warnings of computer viruses, they are everywhere and designed only to cause panic or sell someone something they don't need.

I think that's taking things a bit too far!
