If you’ve ever met any Australian folks, as friendly as they might appear on the surface it won’t be long before they racially abuse us Brits by calling us a “˜Pom’ or “˜Pommie’. Ok, “˜racially abuse’ is perhaps a tad strong but, this well established Aussie slang term for British people irked the “˜British People Against Racial Discrimination’ (BPARD) enough to launch formal complaints against advertisers in Australia. Seriously. And they won. So what to do if you are on the end of this kind of Aussie banter? Simply reply: “Pom? I think you’ll find I’m not actually a French apple, sorry. Good onya Kiwi.”
stop the racial abuse
