My go to supermarkets are Costco and Aldi. Melbourne is now Australia's largest city. Other major differences are, Salaries are generally higher in Australia, you get more public holidays in VIC than any other state, houses are much larger in AUS than in the UK and we don't get Seasonal affective disorder down under. Our trains are air conditioned and classicism isn't a thing in Australia either.
Yes, it can be expensive to travel, but Asia is close by and is very cheap for us Aussies. I honestly enjoy travelling Asia far more than Europe. In Europe, you either get a pompous French person that doesn't like the fact that you do not speak their language or having to keep guard of your phone so it doesn't get stolen, or a combo of both. In Asia, I get treated like royalty and people are so polite and respectful. Most capital cities in Asia are also very safe.
Kylie was NEVER hated. We poked fun at her - called her the 'singing budgie' - but she has a huge Aussie fan base. Aldi is a big supermarket player these days too, in additional to Coles and Woollies and IGA is everywhere too. Your comments about the Voice were offensive and ignorant to be honest. I voted Yes, but that vote failed because of many complex reasons - being a backward country was not one of them. In my state of Tasmania, the local Aboriginal community lobbied for a No vote. Best not to comment if you don't know the facts or understand the nuances. I know London well so I understand the costs there. I find your views surprising - I think you've been away from Australia too long to be commenting. A lot has changed in the last five years, in both Australia and the UK.
This woman needs to re-educate herself when it comes to commenting on a country she doesn’t reside in.
Yes , especially the comment about saving money because we don’t go out become there’s not much to do as in social entertainment. What ignorance. And dum .
Your thoughts are exactly the same as mine. Sadly, she comes across as a bigoted lightweight with no real idea. Next!
the no vote won coz we all voted NO you muppet
Minogue was denigrated widely in Australia . The commentator is correct . Roasts and sausage rolls and pies are not all that popular . When I was teaching one of the few meals that all kids ate at home were stir fries . Pot noodles are massively popular as is pizza . The old british favourites pies pasties roasts tend to be eaten more by . Older Aussies . In my state Foodland is more common than Coles or Woolworths . Drakes are as common .
Was really interested to hear this from the perspective of an Australian living in the UK. A lot of my fellow Brits love to talk big about how they are going to move abroad (and then never do), but as one of the few who said "this sucks, I'm leaving" and then left and then came back I can say that we have it pretty good in the UK. Like, better than most Brits imagine. It's also not that much more expensive than comparable modern economically developed countries are. Some things here are more expensive and other things are cheaper, but it tends to balance out accross the board. What we have is OPTIONS - a cheap option, a mid range and an expensive option, so if you chose to shop cheaply here you can quite easily. One thing I learned is that Brits are kind of weird... sorry, we just are guys. If you ever make it over the pond, you'll find out what I mean...
describe the weirdness please
Mince and onion pies, steak and kidney pies, chicken pies all pretty common in the UK.
Yep, She confused me a bit there. To me Aussie and Brit pies are almost identical. Pork pies are a different category of pie. As far as pies compare, I think UK pies have a higher meat content with less gravy. Aussies have different option like potato topped pies. Budget pies taste better in the UK but gourmet pis are en par with each other.
Very confused by her comparing a Pork Pie and a Mince Beef Pie, both very different. You can get lots of great Pies in the UK Steak Pie, Chicken Pie, Hotpot Pies, and Mince Beet Pies…….
If you want great pies come up North……😂
@@jno5 never heard of a minced beet pie, but I’ll try anything once 😁. It was a bit confusing but I guess (I’ll invent my own adage here), perception is in the eye of the beholder.
There's Beef Mince Pies And Slices in Britain 🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴
@jno5 in Scotland we have scotch pies, haggis pies, macaroni and cheese pies.
There is a programme on itv where you have a couple who choose between living in Australia and England. They found wages were higher but costs of living were higher.
Sydney to Ningaloo will use the same amount of aviation fuel as any other flight of the same distance. That’s why transport costs within Oz are so high.
Even if it’s the same country, it is like travelling from the UK to Eastern Europe.
Weird to compare travelling between places that are clumped together, with a vast island continent, and whinge about obvious incomparable features.
That many good Aussies and Kiwis stood up with us when the time . We always will. If not brothers and sisters we remain cousins!
Marmite is made with beef extract with beer yeast extract. Where Vegemite is made with Vegetable extract and beer yeast extract. So they are completely different.
Not completely different! Quatsch! Colour similar, saltiness similar umami similar. They are both yeast products . Vegemite from wheat and barley marmite from oats and rye and wheat . Vegemite main ingredients were never Veges . A bit of celery and onion is included in it. Marmite is sweeter . They are remarkably similar but if you are brought up on one you probably don't buy the other. ! I never buy marmite !
They are both shit
Your information seems out of date .
I’m British but live here in Australia, I agree that Australia has a nice lifestyle on a budget but there is much more to do and see in the UK and having Europe on the doorstep is a bonus, in my opinion there is a richer and more sophisticated life to be lived there but I’m not sure if I could handle the cold after all these years. There are always trade offs hey.
That’s true, but I heard if you purchase property in Portugal, the government there will grant you citizenship. That way you can live in a hot country but travel to the U.K. when the weather is warmer and live in Portugal when it’s warm, travelling to the rest of Europe as well.
What is there to do in Europe other than look at old buildings and historical sites?
@@petermcculloch4933 Instead of asking me, why don’t you go and experience it for yourself.
@@petermcculloch4933 When I left Australia to come home, some friends said "Why do you want to go back to that grey and overbuilt country". A year later I came home from having my first baby and they were at my house. They were so excited after my hubby took them on a walk round the lake. Lots of photos of them in mud and ice. You could do that.
Interesting. I’m contemplating a move to Aus. Just been in Thailand for two years and realised the grass isn’t greener. I wish you could find people that give a more realistic opinion. It seems people just either say it’s amazing and that’s that.
Very informative. Thank you.
Yvette, both types of rugby are played in both countries. Historically Rugby Union in the UK was played by mid-upper class boys/men who attended grammar and public schools, and was always played by amateurs (who had other paying jobs) at club and national level. It's a tough game on the pitch, but supported by those from that background. Rugby League developed in the industrial North of England and was a faster-moving game, played by working men and is followed with the same passion as football (another 'working mans' game) where people could be paid professionals. There's mutual respect and competitiveness between the UK with Australia's Union and League teams. FYI - so many other sports are popular here in the UK - golf, hockey, sailing, athletics, rowing, motorsport, equestrian, horse-racing, swimming, cycling, and various bike-related, and the indoor ones e.g. darts, snooker, pool. Even winterports including skiing and snowboarding are popular.
We dont have a bank holiday for st george's day in England
In the UK we don’t get St George’s day off.
Girlie did not do done her research there 🙄
Before hearing your explanation Yvette about the origins of Vegemite, I thought it looked similar to Marmite. It is a bit salty but it’s nice on occasions, spread on wholemeal toast with tomatoes to offset the salty taste of Marmite. My brother in laws sister moved reluctantly to Australia 10 yrs ago, they live in Perth. And when she visited the U.K. recently, I asked her would you like to move back to the U.K. She said she wants to but her husband and son are happy living in Australia, and she said she couldn’t afford to move back to the U.K. as well. I think both countries have their pluses and minuses. I’m a Brit and I think some of us slate the U.K., when they say, they’d like to move abroad, thinking the grass is always greener on the other side. But I think life in U.K. isn’t bad. Yes it has its problems, but so do many countries. On the upside, living in close proximity with mainland Europe, when the weather gets you down sometimes, you can take a short flight to Portugal, Spain or Greece for warmer weather, or visit other European countries for culture enriching experiences.
Good vid and interesting perspective. Would've liked to have heard about Medicare vs NHS too...
Central market in Adelaide and Queen Victoria market in Melbourne have the best food produce that I have experienced.
Seafood in Australia is second to none.
Greek food In Melbourne (Oakleigh) is excellent as for Italian and Asian food it’s by far better than the U.K. due to the produce being a lot fresher.That includes sushi. Yum yum. Australia also has the equivalent of the pound shop, Two dollar shop.
Wine, wine, wine need I say more.
Wages in Australia on an average are a lot higher.My daughter works as a nurse in one of London’s major hospitals and earns approximately £28,000 a year. She has been offered the same job in a Melbourne hospital, her start off salary is $100,000 a year.
Just a few more advantages to living in Australia.
Scottish seafood is the best in the world.
@@charlestaylor9424 I have no doubt that Scotland has beautiful seafood but the best in the world 🤔
Yes. I live in Tasmania so I have access to superb oysters, lobster and fish and so much high quality vegetables, berries, cheese and alcohol. We actually have been voted at international competitions as having the best gin and whisky, which is extraordinary.
@@carokat1111 Alright!👍
Australia and Canada share many similarities compared to the UK. Huge country -- more expensive to travel within the country than to Europe for example. Also -- the 'tall poppy' syndrome applies to us as well. We will put our own people down sometimes unless they make it big in the US and are recognized and then are welcomed back though this is changing. In the past, we would compare ourselves with the UK as a colonial country but more so with the US in the past century Inferiority complex I guess. Cheers from Canada.
We used to be tea drinkers like the U.K, many of us drink tea and coffee, you're young...
Nicely put Yvette, insightful and informative.
Hi Yvette I love how composed & intelligent you are! 😊
Great to hear your opinion Yvette and that the both countries have good and bad vibes.
Little Australia has moved south, it was Earls Court when I lived there in the 70's. Clapham, well Clapham Village was a tad too expensive then although the edges with Battersea, Balham and Wandsworth were cheaper.
Both Rugby League and Union are played in the UK, League mainly 'up north' where it originated as the sports organisers/governing body wouldn't accept professional players then. Union was wholly amateur until very recent in its history. it was the same with Cricket and Players (paid) and Gentlemen (upper class amateur) and often the batsmen, players being the bowlers, all on the same National team.
Aussie Rules is very similar to Gaelic Football and is now an International Rules Game played between Ireland and Australia, many Irish footballers go over to Australia to play Aussie Rules.
fun fact rains more in Sydney than London
I remember 40-45 years ago you would normally get 2-3 weeks straight rain ( a few dry days) in august...
Nonsense about career opportunities. Way more jobs with much higher salaries in Perth
Very interesting video. Although there is one topic that most Brits living in Australia (the flip side) add that you have not, and that is weather. It's something money cannot buy, and most Europeans living in Australia say it's both a game and mood changer.
With regards to groceries, not sure how the UK does it. Yes, the Coles and Woolworths duopoly is well known at screwing customers. But even on a UK, US comparison, the UK is significantly cheaper. Actually in many cases, the UK is considered to be the cheapest for groceries by a large margin, anywhere in the developed world.
But I would argue you have two elements incorrect in your video when it comes to prices.
Cars.... Cars are significantly more expensive in the UK. It is worth noting though, that the UK is what I call an option sensitive country rather than a price sensitive one. Most brands will ensure cars are well specified (albeit with smaller, Euro friendly engines than available in Australia/US). People in the UK will usually spec up, and pay up. Brands know this. Australia sits 1/2 between this and the US, which has tended to be cost sensitive rather than option sensitive.
This price variance occurs at all levels of car.
But for arguments sake the exact same model basic hybrid Corolla is £17,000 pounds all inclusive in Australia, £18,000 pounds all inclusive in the US and £30,000 pounds in the UK.
Up at the higher end, a top spec KIA EV9 is £70,000 in the US, £73,000 in Australia and £78,000 in the UK.
---
The other is public transport. The UK has been tremendously good at selling off to every private company possible (sadly something that was a copied lesson in Sydney). But it's led to public transport in London being well known as the world's most expensive city for public transport.
A good view of this is www.picodi.com/uk/bargain-hunting/public-transport-2023
This is made worse by the five year price hold coming off.
That said, I am a massive fan of Londons transport network. Sydney's hub and spoke model is a mistake common in many cities of the world. The only city I would say that makes London's network look underwhelming and way overpriced is Tokyo, which has a network is made up of 48 systems, 4000 odd stations (over 6.5 times as many railway stations and the trains and tube combined), and does so more affordably. (Yeah, sorry Sydney does not come close in either comparison.....)
Your pie knowledge needs updating.
We have mince beef pie's in the Uk
@@user-kl4bh4lq6r It's where we got it from, it used to be a well known fact (common knowledge)...
Apparently as of last week coffee has overtaken tea as the UK's favourite beverage. There are great coffee places all over the UK. I am personally 50:50 as I love both at different times. I can cope with bad tea when I go abroad on holiday but the coffee better be good!! As a UK resident and lover, I have visited Australia twice and thoroughly enjoyed my times there, and I am definitely going back again!
Gotta love that the uk weather showed up as a reminder about how important it is to us 😂
NO activities, yawn! What sheltered life did you live in Australia
I know , what an ignorant comment .
It is the most boring country on the planet
I live in Manchester and manny is wayyyy more like Melbourne. London is the closest comparison to Sydney- both expensive, bustling and international!
Great video in sports as a English -British sports fan I will rugby league is also played in England and the competition is all super league and uk arm force day.
Hey Yvette. Australia has both rugby union and rugby league. I've watched England play Australia in both forms of rugby.
I read an article saying Melbourne is the place to live in Australia at the moment.
Melbourne's great but it depends what you like. There's something for everyone. It's a big country.
Melbourne is a marxist sh!t-hole the rest of the cities are rapidly turning into the U.K also.
Sydney “Was” the largest city.
Coffee tastes like shit in the UK. Just returned from there.
No need to come back then 🧐🙄
👍👍👍 Good vlog Yvette, interesting to hear the comparisons , like the jumper,/sweater ❤.
Bali is 3 hours from Perth and I've had flights for $200 return. My wife gets 6 weeks leave. Salaries, overall, are much higher than the UK. They just are.
Most of what you're posting is your experience only I'm afraid. Almost most of it us nonsense too.
It is true. Australian food when I was there, is very British. Sunday roast, English breakfast fish & chips etc. Same as in Canada. It also has a British culture.
When were you there, 1961?
Australian cuisine is nothing as you describe.
@@panayotisdamianakis3658 Minus the third-world immigrants, 75% (ish) is as @Standard663 described, you're defective, Oh Greek, typical...
I enjoyed that but no direct mention of England and Scotland's "Religion" which is Football(soccer) voted the most popular sport in ALL 55 European Countries.
The South Of England prefers Rugby Union and The North has their own Rugby League.
Did you mention the weather directly? Sidney v London would be a fascinating comparison and today, hours b4 November,I am out in shorts right now. lol
One of the great things about The UK is that we are within a few hours flight of 40+ out of the 55 European Countries,many with different Cultures:)
Why such low quality video (as in resolution)?
because its only just been uploaded so is still processing.
Looks great now.
Only showing as 360p for me and it’s set to show the highest resolution, also the sound isn’t as great as normal………
I Love the Aussie handle on Life .
Nice video good information
What a nice Aussie 🇦🇺 lady👍
as you said you don't no much about sport but the AFL is the oldest professional football sport in the world and as for cricket we do play every sat and some sundays in summer all over aus just like the Uk
A fair and objective list.......you forgot to mention deadly snakes and spiders ........
Cricket whites are worn primarily to see the ball......there are large white screens behind each wicket.....the white clothing of the bowler allows the batsman to see the ball against the background of the large white screens as it's bowled at high speed towards the batsman.
Deadly snakes and spiders are so ridiculously over-hyped. Most Australians never see them their entire lives. No joke.
I never followed cricket until the new format which is much quicker, less white more colour
fvck colour, give me White.
Great video as normal.
There was absolutely no need to bring up the voice.
You might be a born and bred metropolitan Australian .
Outback Australia is a different place.
Love these video’s hope life’s going well for you 🍻👍🇦🇺
Great topic.
Channel 4 used to show Aussie Rule Footy .I Loved it was really getting into it .Then it just stopped. Ive no know idea why .im sure im not the the only Brit who enjoyed the Game .
I'm 68 and all of my life I've heard how bad the UK is. Like all countries we go through good and bad patches. Like everyone in the West we've currently got one or two problems but the great thing is we always work through them and choose the right long term solutions. See how we're currently working through the trans issue. I'm not so sure of the future in other countries which seem to be having extreme problems. I've read the history of the UK over the period of my life and the actuality of what happened wasn't as I was led to believe as I lived it so the answer is ignore the lying media, they hate you and don't trust them.
I hate how people compare UK to Australia . Leave these two countries alone . Every country has good and bad points . Just live your life to the fullest . This lady has been out of Australia for sone time now and she does nit know what is going on . We do have nice restaurant food in Australia . If you look you will find . Both countries are expensive now , especially after Covid . You get 4 weeks holiday . Christmas break is a public holiday . Sydney transport system is being updated and we will be having trains every three minutes . Please appreciate both countries, as no country is perfect . Thank you !
Homebase are you Listening to this Aussie.? You've gotta try Australia.
I thought Bunnings bought Homebase. They did our local one anyway. Bunnings is Australian.
So basically they’re too faced?
''Two'' Learn English...
Hello Yvette Great video good to see you back on form again, You do grand job of selling Australia it sounds great, In the Uk Rugby union🏈 is more Upper Middle class played in the South of England but in Wales Is More a working Class game Rugby League🏈 is played in the North Of England and is very working class orantated
Keep up the good work Yvette your a great Aussie Girl ,,👍🇦🇺🇬🇧
Scotland is mainly Rugby Union.
Prettiest flash digs you’re living in mate.
I wouldn’t be bragging too much about life being better in the UK
When I was on holiday in Thailand, I went to an aussie bar and aussie rules footbal was on, aparrently Brisbane vs Adelade is the main game of the year so we watched it.
man, Aussie rules football is full on. no wonder there are four quaters.
I did have a laugh with an Aussie over a few tinnies, I asked why Australia gives us crap llike home and away and neighbours. he said we gave him Cricket and were no good at it. ha ha
I said thats a fair point.
even stevens. lol
You will miss the people the most if you do come to Australia! Why are so many Aussies working in the UK?
Forgot to say before Yvette cute jumper 😼}:‑)👍
tall poppy syndrome. just to make sure you;re not better than me. and I am not better than you. No higher class no lower class. Not one to bow to. get it ??? I bet all that good food, sunshine and fresh (no pollution and fog) has added to years on your life.
This is a very Southern uptake of Britain 🇬🇧. Go Northern it Britain and it Changes. But the same values .
26th January not January 26
It is called film not movie
left-wing english birdie needs to return home...
But she's adorable looking ❤ she's a sexy 💋💋♥️ little fox 💗
You are right, Australia is overrated
i give you one big subscribe. hahahhaaha can we meet in london?
Are you sounding more British than a few years ago? It’s hard to tell. I kind of hear it when you say, “erm”
For me the UK 🇬🇧 is the best country
is this just another whinging pommy ???
