Gday...

.... unfortunately, I doubt any better responses would be forthcoming from surveying Straya's "general public" in the street with the same questions.

I agree this is pretty funny,,,but  also it's very sad that the average person on the street doesn't know easy general questions.It really is blight on the American school system,I wonder if they asked the same questions in Australia if we would fare any better?  cheers Peter

Ms Annastacia Palaszczk, the likely next Premier of Queensland phoned in to a radio competition but failed on the first question which was the rate of GST.

I'll be honest I didn't get them all right & if only the wrong answers were aired I would look pretty dumb as well.

I found it amazing that they had such limited knowledge and I am sure that I would not get all of the questions right but I am sure that neither Iran or France are in central Australia where those people stuck pins.nono

They may both be in Western Australia cause they have some fairly weird things over therewinkwinkwink
