RS> So we can bare our arses at the poms any time we feel like it.

KR> the poms are fucked as a world power,

You could say that. Those chinese you were smirking about how they
were treated are now having some considerable fun rubbing the poms
noses in the fact that they cant do a fucking thing to them now.
They even ate the governors dog. Oh how the mighty have fallen Keef.

KR> the australian forces would find it difficult to do
KR> a fauklands type operation to south stradbroke island,

Indeed they would, we dont have a need for that sort of capability,
so we dont have delusions of grandeur and try to conquer the world.
If Sidivene Rambuka chooses to bare his arse at us, there would be
fuck all we could do about it. I dont care, I'm not interested in
paying taxes to have some way to make him stop. He is free to bare his
arse at anyone he likes, including the queen if thats what turns him on.
