| | The tune to Advance Australia Fair comes from a welsh drinking song. | | | Over the years, there have been numerous attempts to replace Advance Australia Fair with Waltzing Matilda as the national anthem. | | | This alternative shows people what an Australian national anthem should be like - powerful, enjoyable to sing and with a certain sense of irelevance. |

| | The Sydney Morning Herald reported that Middle Eastern gangs were attacked whilst the assailants sung the National Anthem, entitled “Advance Australia Fair,” and “Waltzing Matilda.” | | | Over the last 30 years Australia has begun to develop a vibrant multicultural society, diversifying politics and culture while paving the way for integration into Asia. | | | Conjure an image of Australia in your mind, and you’re likely envision bouncing kangaroos and jovial tank-topped men throwing “another shrimp on the barbie.” You might like to think again. |

| | Advance Australia Fair? by Aziz Choudry |
| | In September 2000, while "multicultural" Australia was being showcased at the Sydney Olympics we learnt that three Somali asylum seekers wrote to Australian immigration officers asking to be sent home to Somalia. | | | From the genesis of the White Australia Policy, to its blocking the right of the federal court to review refugee review tribunal decisions to its support for the recent anti—refugee laws, its track record is little better. | | | Figures released in mid—October show that Australia’s policy of intercepting and diverting boat people to their ultimate destination has so far cost Aus$103 million. |

| | Australia has maintained its ban against New Zealand apples, despite their side having lost. | | | The case is also remarkable given the CER free trade agreement between Australia and New Zealand - an agreement which unfortunately has no formal dispute resolution procedures. | | | When apple trade lobbyists Apple Action Group marched on Parliament this week to protest against an 85-year-old trade ban of New Zealand apples to Australia it wasn't just apples on their mind. |
