Tasman Absorption



It’s not deliberate. It just happens.

New Zealand has a population the size of one of (biggest) cities. So if someone talented in any sort of performance art begins to make some noise, there’s a finite level they can reach over there.

So they come over here to Australia, and if they make it big, well then, they made it big here, clearly they’re Australian! I mean, unless they’re constantly reinforcing the point that they’re a Kiwi through and through, we claim them as our own.

It’s not deliberate.

Unless they mess up, then we deliberately call them Kiwis again.
