Aussie city wants to 'defect' to France An Australian city wants to defect to France in protest at their Government's stance on Iraq. Wollongong in New South Wales is to make an appeal to the Consul General of France. Local politicians have joined forces with unions and employers to make the stand. South Coast Labour Council secretary Arthur Rorris, said: "If the Australian government won't represent the interests of Australians, how embarrassing will it be if we go to another government and say 'our government won't represent us, will you?'" A Wollongong delegation, including Lord Mayor Alex Darling, will approach the Consul General of France in Sydney next Tuesday, reports the news.com website. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
