poms

Poms is Australian and New Zealand slang for British people, especially English immigrants.
The term is mildly derisive but often used affectionately: The poms can't handle our summers.
Origin uncertain—possibly from "pomegranate" as rhyming slang for "immigrant," or a reference to sunburned complexions.
Also spelled pommies.
