@John@fairdinkum.one#Trump isn’t Australia’s friend nor is he a reliable ally. Trump is out to destroy #NATO & plunder #Ukraine for #RareEarthMinerals.
It’s past time that #Australia should have severed it’s treaties with Trump’s #US & booted them out of #PineGap & #Darwin. Pine Gap plays a crucial role in supporting the intelligence activities & military operations of the US.
Kill the #AUKUS deal. Invest in naval drones!
#auspol #Albo grow a set. If you want #Allies with assets in Asia, talk to #France & #Japan
@John Very well said. Right on.

Brilliant post
Well said.
USA will only ever sell us the hardware it doesn't want anymore eg the old Virginia class subs supposedly coming to us in Aus that will need upgrading here.
ALL military equipment that US sells abroad needs regular software updates, at cost, without which they WILL NOT work.
Let me repeat:
ALL military equipment that US sells abroad needs regular software updates, at cost, without which they WILL NOT work.
This is something ppl don't usually know.
It means that on a whim, or as a tantrum, ANY president can demand Aus govt do its bidding and if we say no, they can withhold updates and supplies TO RENDER ALL MILITARY HARDWARE FROM USA USELESS.
We should immediately dump LNPs/ Morrisons useless AUKUS deal.
USA is rogue and untrustworthy. Accept and cut our losses and renegociate with Japan or France IF they'll have us.
@John
This is just one example from one article about software updates for military hardware from USA.
