Cutting through all the crap Dr Ken Henry tells it as it is!! Statements that would have been made decades ago by politicians who serve the nation not lobby groups!

What a fabulous rebuttal of an absolutely ridiculous assertion by the gas lobby!!

$368+billion wasted!!!!

New detection tech could make AUKUS submarines obsolete Chinese researchers have developed a new gravity-based detector that could be used to find submarines and render the proposed AUKUS submarine redundant.

"One hates to think of $368 billion (and counting) wasted on a project that, by the time it is delivered, technology will have made redundant."

And that's even if we get those mythical subs. #DitchAUKUS #auspol

One wonders if the sophistication of warfare into the future will make our ‘phantom’ American submarines of any use defending Australia

The Western world countries should never forget those worlds!!

“The Australian” is a real ugly paper. Born out of the 60’s with a chip on its shoulder. Read by old farts who long for the bad old days! Pathetic!!

Not too sure who our defence experts are but if you take a look at the recent ‘wars’ submarines where not on the hit list for buys. The world of ‘killing people’ has changed and it’s now all about drones and airborne missiles!!

Nobody’s “Obsessed” With Israel — It’s Just A Uniquely Horrible Country Have you ever noticed how the same people who accuse Israel’s critics of “obsession” with a tiny insignificant country will also fall all over themselves to tell you that Israel i…

To avoid Vancouver's Empty Homes Tax (EHT), you must occupy your property as your principal residence for at least six months (180+ days) of the calendar year. Alternatively, the property must be rented out for at least six months in periods of 30 or more consecutive days.

Fantastic idea!

The tide is turning??

I can't understand how negotiations with Iran could possibly have failed with such a stellar lineup of Americans🙄

They're not even trying, folks.

I've had a couple times recently where I said AIPAC needs to be designated a foreign terrorist organization (it's a front group for Israel to influence our government, what else could it be?) and someone responded accusing me of attacking Jews.

They must be joking! Haven't you seen the IDF murdering children on your TV?

US Congressman Thomas Massie “We should end all US military aid to Israel.”

HELL YEAH!

I thought Australia had gone overboard with their legislation to try to prevent any type of Palestinian protests, but as usual, the 'old country' takes the cake with their stupid, old, archaic laws.

Why do the Libs immediately take a right turn to the punitive side of immigration and then go to Church for a prayer meeting?

As one who has listened to and read many remedies to youth crime it is interesting that our politicians refuse to read the research from around the world. No wonder we have lost faith in their bubbling offerings!

Great footage.

Like Trump, Abbott is all about Abbott.

Vance is a disaster!!!!

Meanwhile for Australia we have tied our dense spending fully to the US and probably send $1+ to the US. Dumb politics and dumb strategic development for the future.

All disgraced Lib and Lab politicians should never be invited back into the decision-making process. Why? After such shocking election losses, any publicity drops the credibility of all our future political leaders.

Oh shit, please send him to a pasture and lock the gate!
