    I'm watching a fascinating program about the history of race-based responses in Australia. Back to the Gold Rush days (well that's what they're up to so far) and the response to Chinese miners.

    It's a rip-roaring tale by Peter FitzSimons. Some pretty shocking stuff.

    Part 1 of 3.

    Sounds racist.

    I think that's been on before, interesting how the events unfold

    I'd like to watch the Cronulla bogans in action again.
