South Australia Set To Stain Staines Reputation



Residents of the UK under 45 come on down. The South Australian State Government is set to play naughty with a mid winter appeal for skilled workers from the UK.

Fifty years after 1m Britons were lured down under with the £10 assisted-passage scheme, skilled tradespeople and professionals are once again being targeted. This time there will be no cheap flights or tickets for ocean liners but the promise that young people can buy a four-bedroom detached house on the beach with space for a swimming pool and "barbie" for as little as £200,000.



My uncle came on one of those packages to Adelaide, but ended up in Perth. I ended up here in a circuitous way. Adelaide has a lot to recommend it if you can find suitable employment. There is a large pommy community here already and I would say that it is a very easy transition. You just have to put up with a lot of Australians.
