New generation of 10-pound Poms - Australia luring UK and Irish ... (Daily Mail)

An Australia state is so desperate for workers, it's offering bargain basement £10 ($17.60) fares to entice British backpackers Down Under.

It remains to be seen if any of the next batch of British and Irish people moving to Australia will go on to be a prime minister or a music star. Two of the original 10-pound Poms went on to become Australian prime ministers. 'We look forward to welcoming back young people from the UK and Ireland, and encourage them to make the most of these £10 fares.' Two of the most famous people to arrive Down Under that way were former prime ministers Julia Gillard and Tony Abbott, who both migrated with their families in the 1960s. The scheme is an updated version of the program that brought migrants from the United Kingdom - including future pop stars and prime ministers - to Australia in the decades after World War II until 1982. The scheme lasted until 1982 and saw 1.5million British and Irish people move to Australia.
