AUSTRALIA LOVABLE BUT ANNOYING

The Independent has a list of 20 things the Brits love about Australia and another list of 20 things that are maddening:
Lovable: Rolf Harris and Germaine Greer.

Maddening: Vegemite and Rupert Murdoch.
There seems to have been some sort of inversion when these lists were compiled.

What does Antony Loewenstein see in the lists that I don't?
The Independent doesn't know if it loves Australia or finds us irritable.
Australians are irritable? That explains the involvement in Iraq and more troops for Afghanistan.
