Ha! I heard that headline on the telly last night and was like "What? They're reading my LJ now?"
Paranoia aside, though, it's a joke item from the funny pages, right after the bit about Bat Boy going on a blind date with the Sasquatch's cousin's hairdresser. I don't think any of the Aussies behind this plan are big names, and it looks like the entire nation of NZ is opposed to it. It would be harder to pull off than making Australia a republic, and that's not going to happen this decade either.
Anschluss!
