Australians Want British Nurse To Take English Test

A British migrant who wants to work as a nurse in Australia has been told she must take an English language test before her application will be considered.

‘Are you joking?’ Mrs Julie Dutton asked officials. ‘I’m from England. I was educated there. I worked there. I speak fluent English.’

But politically correct officials in Sydney told her that unless she took the test, proving she understood and could speak English, she couldn’t be considered for the job.

Mrs Dutton’s revelations come the day after Australia announced it was cutting its foreign migrant intake by 14 per cent to help protect jobs for Australian workers.

The Ozzy’s obviously forget where they came from – only 200 years ago.
