On the issue of press freedoms it is highly relevant to do comparisons with other countries.

I actually like Australia and think a more fundamental union with them is inevitable.. Though they have a bit to learn from us on ethics and good conduct. Maybe its a wise idea to wait for climate change to do its work and coal exports to become obsolete so we can gain some more generous terms from them.

Labour could do with the experience I think.
Working on a cure to aging would be a good icebreaker policy for them.

They would treat us as lower than Tasmania, and that is pretty low.

You really don’t understand the concept or process of ageing at all. Every species on this planet goes through a cycle of life, which ultimately ends in death. As much as I too would rather not die, this is how it is, and how it is meant to be. Living in a world of 30 year olds, who will never have children or grandchildren, who will never die - just rinse and repeat their everyday life, forever … sounds downright scary to me.
Out of curiosity, how old are you?

It's simply costing the world too much.
Plus its not overly ethical to stand by and provide no effective solution.
Both health and welfare would go down, then education when there's less need for kids.

Efficiency benefits like that are rather large.
So your "effective solution" is to look after ourselves so well that we don't need to look after anyone else. Is there any wonder Marxism always leads to murder, genocide and mayhem?

Marxism? Sure, most undemocratic systems tend to behave that way (including some dictatorships who called themselves marxist), but what you are describing was and is typical for fascism and proto fascism (including Trumpism).
Maybe you should learn about history before embarrassing yourself.
