I wonder if being a knight gives any perks?

Good! I am glad to see Australia recognises where it actually belongs as a significant power in the Far East. It has huge mineral resources and its new role has been emphasised by Obama's " Pivot to the Pacific " in defence policy.

It does not need a silly little island on the other side of the world which happens to speak English even though we have the connection that a lot of British children have gone South for a better life.
