Australians are coffee snobs. An influx of Italian immigrants after World War II ensured that - we probably had the word 'cappuccino' about 20 years before America. Cafe culture is really big for Aussies. We like to work hard but we take our leisure time seriously.
I believe we need to attract a new generation of the best and brightest to public service and I believe that government can be a source of inspiration not degradation.
