1960s Anglo Australia

I just re-watched the 1978 Australian movie Newsfront and talked to a mate about it down under.

Luke: “It was so lovely.”

Mate: “You would have hated 1960s Anglo Australia. It was boring. It was 99% white. The food was s***. There was nothing to do. There was stifling conformity. Everybody thought the same way, talked the same way, ate the same s*** food.”

Luke: “Orthodox Jews never had it so good. The country was cohesive, loyal to the Queen, hated all foreigners, could say racist things with abandon.”

About Luke Ford

I've written five books (see Amazon.com). My work has been covered in the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, and on 60 Minutes. I teach Alexander Technique in Beverly Hills (Alexander90210.com).
