Attributable to South Africans leaving for OZ in the 80's and 90's.

Fun facts about Perth.


Johannesburg to Perth - 8 303.23 km
Durban to Perth - 7 860.85 km
Sydney to Perth - 3291.63 km
Auckland to Perth - 5345.72 km

I include Auckland because there are apparently more Saffers in Auckland than Perth, but we won't vote ANC either.

Correct.

But more specifically I was thinking about this: The predecessor to the DA was called Progressive Federal Party. The party was at the time derrided by right-wing National Party supporters who apparantly said that the party's initials stood for packing for Perth.

One time leader of the PFP was Vause Raw, I went to school with his son (Peter IMS)
 
I read an article recently that claimed about 80,000 South Africans left SA for Oz. I would guess that most left SA because of the ANC's ongoing destruction of our lifestyle, our ZAR currency, and their "jobs for the boys" employment policies.

Only the ANC could be so doff as to think that those ex-pats would now want to support the ANC.

Or it could just be an innocent reason such as the ANC cadres getting tax-payer funded holidays to Oz on a regular basis?
 
Wonder what would happen if the plane doesn't make it...

Which plane? ANC elite travel with a small air force of planes as "backup" (that it just so happens to have friends and family on those planes at the time)
