    Ah all those young European English people emigrating to Australia.

    We left. Please exclude us from this sort of European nonsense.

        Nope but see above. Unfortunately our people (which is what this map is about) aren’t European anymore.

          Switzerland, Iceland, Turkey etc. are also included and they aren’t EU members.

          I feel like you are deliberately misunderstanding the EU and Europe.

      You left Europe, the subcontinent? How did you manage?

      Or are you confusing it with the European Union, the political system?

        Are you confusing the land mass of England as being part of the European continent with the residents of England as being European?

        Suggest you reread the post title. This is about young Europeans. Which unfortunately young English people aren’t anymore.

          How exactly?

          By definition, even England is part of the subcontinent Europe. You can’t just leave Europe by voting.

          Brexit, what you are probably referring to, affected the membership of the EU. That one you left, correct.

        They don’t have the luxury of having their village idiots hidden behind a language barrier like the non-english countries.

      They really need to switch the New Zealand flag to the fern one so people can tell them apart

        I would have thought the fact that the Aussie one has white stars (as in this map) and the New Zealand one has red stars made it clear enough already.

        Still seems to confuse you though.

          I don’t see them both named and together often enough to notice that they have different colors, but maybe I’ll remember it after this interaction.

          I still like the fern better though.

      last time I checked, the British Isles weren’t a continent themselves, so we do belong to Europe 😅 (unless you’re trying to imply that we somehow belong to the Americas)
