@luciedigitalni Just imagine, for a moment, if we'd stuck with the French subs (whether nuclear or retrofitted diesel); we'd have subs, and be aligned with the right side of manufacturing and trade.

Even the second-hand subs will never come. It's all a fantasy.

Marles welcomes the poop sandwich of now only getting 2nd hand boats. It “simplifies” things.

Such a trooper. He barely cried.

#richardmarles announces overseas that the #aukus mess which we have ‘donated’ billions of dollars to has been downgraded to second hand subs. So not telling the public here but sneaking off and telling a whole pile of foreigners. He is such a grub.
