@@V14V Да, все мы иногда ошибаемся: "Day and night in irons clad we like poor galley slaves Will toil and toil our lives away to fill dishonored graves But by and by I'll slip m' chains and to the bush I'll go And I'll join the brave bushrangers there, Jack Donahue and Co." 😉
Convicts were sent to Australia to work as slaves. In Victoria we have miles of dry stone walls built around the paddocks that were compliments of those slaves. The land owner would make request to the Government for convicts to work on their properties. The women, some Transported as young as 15 years of age, were sent out to these land owners as maids etc. America had the coloured slaves. Australia had white slaves. The irish were hated by the English and were treated very harshly though that went for most of the convicts. If I'm wrong someone will correct me. We are proud of our convict heretage.
This is correct, I just wanted to add that before the American Revolution, England sent Irish convicts to the colonies as indentured servants. Essentially, the Americas also had white slaves as well as black. After American Independence England needed to look elsewhere.
Technically, they weren't slaves and had legal rights as subjects/citizens, but it was still captive forced labour under horrific conditions. The vast majority were petty thieves, but were given standard sentences of 7 years, 14 years, or life. The fictional Jim Jones getting life for poaching makes sense because it would have involved trespassing and using a firearm (and stealing from someone rich). With good behaviour you could get Ticket of Leave (parole) and work for a private employer for pay. Still under terrible conditions, and they'd often stiff you by paying you with rum. Very few were hardened criminals. Most had turned to occasional stealing due to poverty, so you won't find many Australians who are embarrassed or ashamed about having convict ancestry (It's only about 20% of us anyway).

Hi Alex. PI3 is my boyfriend. He doesn’t really have anything on social media yet. There are a few other songs on RU-vid. This version is fantastic, right?! I am glad I was able to convince him to put it on here.
During the latter part of the 18th and early part of the 19th centuries, the law in England punished with hanging or transportation anyone who "poached" - that is, took fish or game from another man's land. It was a common offence as workmen were paid such low wages that they and their families were practically starving. As the landlords' estates generally abounded in game it was only natural that a battle of wits, and stronger armaments, developed between the "poacher" trying to feed his family and the gamekeepers hired to protect their lords' estates. If caught and sentenced to transportation to Australian convict settlements the poachers met with hardship and brutality. They worked and sometimes slept in iron chains and were punished for trivial offences by floggings of up to one hundred lashes. From this background comes "poacher" Jim Jones - hardly a convict by modern ideas - defiant, bitter and living for the day when his oppressors may "regret they sent Jim Jones in chains to Botany Bay."
Hi Bob! Thank you for your interest. We don’t currently have it for sale or any of his other stuff available for selling. We are working on a web site.
