    In USA, China, Hungary etc. the stereotypical Austrialian is a White man. That is the look people associate with Australia. That makes the White immigrants more Australian in my eyes. The Abo's were there earlier, but they had no concept of statehood. Modern Australian culture has much more to do with Anglo-Australians than with Aborigines.
    I'd probably vote "both in equal measure" if that option existed.

    Aboriginals.
    My answer is closest to the "go back where you came from" mentality.

    True Australians are the descendants of all those criminals that were brought to Australia from UK.

    The rest are just immigrants.

    Okay. But to be fair, I didn't say that Englishmen were exclusively responsible for founding Australia.

    Option's been added. But why vote for both in equal measure after making an argument that the English are more Australian?
