I do . But we don't have that old stuffy very English aristocracy . We have millionaires yes but they are not old money

They have a class driven system. We subsequently have the same. Majority of the money in Australia is old money, there's a few self made guys but it's a lot more privileged wank than you'd think.

We're a nation of fucking convicts and their prison wardens. That's about as polar opposite of "classless" as you can get!

That's a interesting claim. Can you provide a source to back that up?

We may have ended up somewhat like that but I hardly think that was the intent at the time.

Happy to be proven wrong it's just that I've never heard of that as an official policy.

I had it in a text book . Also had debates in class about it . Was supposed to be a classless society . The rich back then did dress down as they wanted to be one of the workers ie a normal person . This country was a new one . Most people didn't want to bring old world society . If I can remember which book I'll post it

I'm not having a go I'm just interested in what you're saying as that's not my understanding.

I read the excellent 'Fatal Shore' by Robert Hughes which is on of the definitive texts on convict Australia and from memory I don't remember that.

On the contrary, many of the upper classes employed the convicts for various roles and wanted to be well distinguished from them.
