@Sailor FNQ; there's no future in submarine warfare - full stop! Pretending otherwise is head in sand stuff.
The Coalition's decision to buy the 2019 Election by pork-barrelling to produce French subs in SA has backfired - spectacularly!
Morrison's decision to sign the French sub deal as PM in February 2019 only to renege on it soon afterwards is still to be investigated by a federal ICAC. Our relationship with France is toast and as demonstrated at the G20 Meetingt in Rome and at COP26 in Glasgow, under the Coalition Australia has been relegated to the very naughty and not-to-be-trusted corner!
Taken collectively, it doesn't get much worse than what we've seen since September 2013 - even the Port of Darwin was flogged off to the Chinese for peanuts and now Dutton has commissioned new patrol boats to replace the ones gifted to the genocidal military dictatorship in Sri Lanka.
