The elephant in the room is now so large the house is basically an elephant wearing a curtain . I just hope this humidity which indian plants in the 3rd world tropics can handle :lol: doesnt cripple an advanced 1st world plant in what is essentially dry arse semiarid woodland. :crazy:
Good heavens it would be more believable if they said an army of trans people had chained themselves to production lines for 4 years straight.

Haven't read all of the audit. However, the stand out appears to me is that the department of Defence couldn't run a project to build an out house. Sooo, nothing new there.

You just have to look at their history in this regard.

Edit: The original production line was built in about two years during the war when there were man power shortages and almost zero local knowledge. The yanks helped out there in a big way. Here we are now, what, 10 years and we can't build a new production line/facility. IMO that's pathetic.

And to add, we tell the whole world we can't do it and where all our defence facilities are.


Its a sad situation isn't it, to think we were once known and envied as the 'Lucky Country'.

Problem with that theory is the shortage started long before Ukraine war.

There are two production lines.
A. For rifle powders. (Single base) Is still operating at capacity.
B. The other one for shotgun and pistol powders (double base) no longer exists.
C. The new line for shotgun and pistol powders (single base) isn't producing. Supposedly due to a "drying" issue.

The ukraine war is surely milked enough now the average person is seeing through it, surely. Everything in the world being short and doubling in price due to a squabble between two ex-soviet dumps, niether even a top 10 economy??

Good heavens, if we believe that, we have basically given the worlds richest the keys to our bank accounts. They have already taken half our money( literally, our money has only half the buying power of a few years ago) and doubled theirs. They didnt just get richer, they invented new levels of rich.

If we have another war they are going to need a jockey wheel on their smartphones just to see their bank balance it will be so long.. Meanwhile I'm paying $9 a can of mens deodorant, 2x what it used to be. Hey obviously its all going overseas for those smelly soldiers fighting the war. :lol:

This is what happens when lawyers run governments, there's not a business brain amongst them, 99% arguing the point and squabbling and the last percent is wasted on ensuring our snack sized chocolate bars are a single serve instead of 1.3 servings... because obviously we're too retarded to work important s**t like that out for ourselves.

At least they're saving our financial asses with a $30 annual power price reduction and enough of a tax break to buy a new f***ing toaster.

Words can barely describe how badly our federal government has failed.

Anyhow, perhaps I need to up my daily fluoride dosage and forget about it all.

Worse, the same effing country that "made under licence - brewed in China", Corona beer. Remember? That Mexican stuff.

In the 1930's Parliaments Hansards are full or quotes similar to "All the scrap metal that we are selling to Japan cheaply is going to come back to us as bombs".

FFS they gave the 1936 Olympics to Berlin under Adolf Hitler's Nazi dictatorship................we have learnt ZERO.

It doesn't make a difference of the political party in power, they have all sold out Australia over the decades.

Fellas they didnt need to kill anything. We sold our manufacture, currencies, assets and even powergrids willingly to the global markets. After the break up of the USSR we had dibs on most of the worlds business. We exchanged our soveriengnty for quick stock returns, easy money, household appliances, 3 cars per houshold and cheap toys for our fat over fed kids. We had the sweet end of all these deals because we set the prices.

Then our economies started to tank, we realised we had industries full of fluff jobs like HR reps, quality assurers, dog shampooers and animal psychologists. And the yellow man outworked us.

No point talking about clever chess matches and them killing our business etc. They are still playing by exactly the same rules we set up.

Your joking? It was prime time news, they literally loaded a mob of the commy pricks onto a plane and sent them home.
I'll have a search....

OK it was tied up with this
https://www.9news.com.au/national/chine ... 4b98ea8aa1
But unfortunately it looks like everything went hush hush over night.
I can clearly remember it being reported but there's absolutely zilch on the internet.

Next time I look there'll be no evidence on the net about smart Chinese security cameras that were installed in government facilities. :unknown:

Yup. He seems like a no nonsense sort of fella. Well, I guess it really comes down to trying to choose the least useless out of our politicians. Dutton however isn’t exactly charismatic as far as the average potato headed citizen is concerned. It’d be awesome if Peter Dutton fixed things like John Dutton out of “Yellowstone “ penny Wong replaced by Beth Dutton as foreign minister, now that would be interesting. Sorry to those who don’t get the reference to the tv show.

Is the significance that there is far too much propaganda in mainstream media?

Neither the US (and their puppet states like Australia) nor Chinese regimes are 'good guys' on the global stage but China's authoritarianism uses every option up to and including genocide to enforce it's will on its population.

Absolutely. Infiltration of our government and infrastructure is a big warning. The fact we’ve had interference in our universities from embassy “staff” is also very concerning. Not to mention the covert police stations set up in countries internationally
