Destruction of Australia's engineering and construction expertise

Jump to new
Maybe it's time to start building our subs:

US hanging fire on Australia’s nuclear subs

In the latest blow to Australia’s ambitious plans to acquire nuclear-powered submarines, overstretched US and UK shipyards may not be able to supply Canberra with the boats within the decade as out…

A few roofing iron, a good carperters gang a pump and a long garden hose from Bunnings with a shark net float,all made in China and she'll be right.
 
might be better if we started looking for folks willing to be trained , to be the crew for those subs ( and THEN build the subs we have crew ready for )

on second thoughts ... who are we really trying to keep out ( or in ) , all they need are student visas , and they can land at a major airport ( and proceed to over-stay )
 
France is getting 400,000 entries a year from mostly Africa, it has nuclear subs and nuke missiles, spend a fortune in defence budget and has now millions of foot soldiers within destroying its society to the core
Defence of a country is not made by buying F35 or absolete submarines but by having a dozen or so nuke balistic missiles..to protect from state military attack and a strong border protection and economic independence.
We have none neither zip.
At best we will be a disposable ally for uncle Sam..who is now the Reset voice.
Russia eliminated, the Reset has only China left as obstacle..so expect Australia to be used.
We should retrieve independance and build back industrial self sufficiency.
Fair wish with the clowns in charge, and the voters electing them..
 
Russia eliminated ???

i think not , but it will be interesting to see how it will accelerate the trade war

does it use the Chinese style of selective lock-downs to fight a 'serious virus ' ( say in the coal mining area , or uranium mines )

does it just apply export embargoes ( targeted sanctions )

maybe it applies cash controls , or tariffs

if you want self-sufficiency in Australia it will take a top-down reset ( not avoiding the various government departments on the way down )

if you want a better government you will have to abandon the two-party system ( and at least question the preferential voting closely )

AND you might have to change the ways company directors get nominated for the board elections ( no more directors 'the boys' can work with )
