i don't really care about the aussie kiwi thing but I secretly enjoy making people squirm when they make a mistake hehe.
I love british humour but I do miss aussie humour too. And it's true that brits are more arrogant than aussies. Except when it comes to sport, where aussie arrogance knows no bounds!
COME ON THE WALLABIES!!

Don't know or care about the quality of Aussie designers as compared to other nationalities. Talent has borders.
What I do know is that at least 20% of the Australian population is living in London and they ALL go to the pub at the end of my road on a Sunday evening.
They are loud, throw up outside my house and leave nowhere for me to park my car.
Therefore, using my bigoted English logic, I dislike everybody from the southern hemisphere.

Wasn;t the sydney mayor going to introduce a yob tax..where evey british tourist entering NSW with a football shirt on, had to pay a bond that would be refunded if they did not engage in any anti-social behaviour?

You're quite right.
The English abroad are terrible. After centuries of conquering anything we landed on it's proving a hard habit to shake!!
And English people wearing football shirts are cocks. But they're English cocks and you know where you are with an English cock. (In my experience that would generally be on your way to A&E).
I just don't understand why there are so very many Aussies in London. Every other person I meet is an Aussie or possibly a Kiwi.

Why are we here?..cause we can work here without too much fuss.
Even if you have no ancestry...which most aussies do anyway..you can get a decent work Visa.

chopsticks, I had this conversation with some NT people yesterday - you should see where I'm from in the northern suburbs of Perth - nearly everyone is british. My dad is from kent, my neighbours on the left were from Manchester, my neighbours on the right were from Liverpool, and across the road they were welsh! There are soooooo many brits in Aus.

i am so impressed by designers from everywhere, it would be hard to pick a favorite region.
i think aussie designers, are finding their feet still, so the styles at the moment are quite varied, so being eclectic and adding our own spin is creating some fresh work.
the internet is having an amazing effect on graphic style, things move so quickly.

3D animation, Canadians and Aussies are all useless.
