      But to answer you question succinctly: Too many 'bed wetters' in too many senior positions. Too many of those supposedly 'sensitive' to the feeling of others, when those 'needing protection' not only do not care, but share in the joke. But the really sad thing is that if the fashion changed to carpet bombing Germans rather than protecting their supposed sensibilities, these same mandarins would prove to be instant turncoats. 'Jobsworths' to a man/woman/person of unknown sexuality.

      It's like 'the flies' that pervade our joint. If ya can't beat 'em join 'em or keep ya bloody gob shut (or nearly)lest the flies get in. As an Aussie who was at school in WW2 when outdoor & canvas shithouses & flies were the mix of choice (or none) , I agree with those who reckon that the way we Aussies talk is as a direct result of the flies fear of getting in. [for the pommy bastards, I contend that the hot Aussie climate pre AirCon & even now, has a direct correlation to how we Aussie talk to this very day, in Lockdown or not.]

    Corbett’s Aussie acent could do with a bit of work but Barker’s was excellant. I’ve seen lots of Barker’s character in the flesh in Queensland and the Territory (NT). I take issue with only one item - Barker was a bit light on with the number of flies he was prepared to consume with his sandwich. Some people have commented on the alligator line but that can be tempered by the reality of the various Alligator rivers in the NT.......... Good work, boys. You are sadly missed, even in Oz

Then I worked with Aussie backpackers in London and finally got the BIG difference, especially when the British, Aussie, Kiwis and South Africans were bantering about the usual Ashes and Rugby tour. 30yrs later, not as much Aussies here and the younger folks seem to use a heck of a lot more Americanisms and have a more toned down accent.

      Yeah poor old Rolf, targeted because he couldnt defend himself. They are backdating "no touch" rules back 30 years or more. When people were alllowed to pat others on the backsode - either gender. If a kid says someone touched them, the accused is put in 11 days jail, EVEN WHILE INNOCENT while waiting for trial.. Trial goes thru, -- no verdict, so no resolution. They guy still stays accused for the rest of their life and the kid gets away with it. The person who led the kid to say the thing should be allowed to be sued and have his house taken away.

      Could you imagine a plague of Rolf Harris'?
      Rolf Harris'.
      They fought the dogs.
      And killed the cats.
      Bit the babies in their cradles.
      And ate the cheese out of the vats.
      And licked the soups from the cooks' own ladels.
      And opened the kegs of salted sprats.
      Made nests inside men's Sunday hats.
      They even spoiled the women's chats.
      By drowning their speaking with shrieking and squeaking in fifty different sharps and flats.
      And the muttering grew to a grumbling.
      And the grumbling grew to a mighty rumbling.
      And out of the houses the Rolfs came tumbling!
      And when they reached the other side.
      A wonderous portal opened wide.
      And when all were in to the very last.
      The door in the other side shut fast.
      And they were never heard of again.
      All except one who was lame.
      And so the land was rid of Rolf Harris'.
