29 November 统治阶级通过白痴的娱乐来削弱被统治者反抗性.中阴两国在这一点上保持了高度一致, 但程度仍然有所区别: 阴国的恶俗是真恶俗, 我国的恶俗是通过层层审查的小心翼翼的假恶俗;
真他妈浪费了我房间的plasma, 连iplayer也用不了, 真讨厌. 27 November 澳洲人先走一步, 我准备跟上这是我记忆中credit crunch以来媒体第一次报道某国籍的群体开始逃离伦敦. 我也要和兑人民币汇率只有1:10的阴磅说声: '迟点见.'
London News: Thousands of Australians are fleeing the capital after losing their jobs in the credit crunch by Richard Moriarty. Tuesday, 25 November 2008
THOUSANDS of Australians are fleeing London after losing their jobs in the credit crunch. Antipodeans are heading home after turning their backs on the UK's economic gloom in favour of better job opportunities - and sunshine - back home. According to new figures, from the Australian Government’s Immigration Department, an average of 2,700 Australians are leaving the capital each month, up from 1,750 a month in 2005. In the 12 months to June, 13,062 Australians applied for working holiday visas compared with more than 27,000 two years ago. The reversal comes less than a week after the Local Government Association predicted that one in 12 jobs in London would be cut in the next 18 months. Since the 1970s Australians and New Zealanders have flocked to London, attracted by the strong pound, travel opportunities and superior careers paths. But mass redundancies in the City and the laying off of casual and temporary workers in other industries has led to many losing their jobs and planning their return home. Emily McGuinness, 25, went home to Melbourne last week after spending three months looking for a job in the capital. She said: "A lot of my friends are being made redundant - four are going home next month. Businesses are just not looking for people on visas." Oliver Harris, of Robert Walters recruitment, one of the biggest employers of Antipodeans in London, said: “Two or three years ago, it would take [Australians] one week to get a job. Now it will take a month. A lot will be heading home for Christmas, leaving dark and wet London.” In contrast to the UK economy, Australia's economy forecast is more robust, with Prime Minister Kevin Rudd planning on drawing on a billion dollar surplus to help the country through the world recession.
