UK vs Australia

I must say now I am in a state of confusion.A very good friend of mine, who lives in Perth called me over the weekend and 'lectured' me on why I should go to Australia rather than the UK. She did a rather good job trashing the UK.Valid points she made I must admit and above all she is willing to help me find my feet, something I won't have in the UK.
So I'm reconsidering my options and today the song in my head is UK or Australia? UK or Australia? UK or Australia?
