We get what 's "Rome wasn't built in a day" defenders are saying. But wasn't built in a day either - it was a overnight brain fart.

So why are the people it would purport to defend - against a yet-to-be-found aggressor - still suffering austerity??

Australia offers a useful “canary in the coalmine” comparator, especially for small and medium-sized states that are facing a similar set of challenges from China. Canberra’s response in the face of increasingly hostile behavior from Beijing suggests the possibility of a loose template for other states seeking to protect themselves against a combination of political interference, coercive economic policies and other forms of pressure.

These anti-China, pro-United States articles concentrate on the "bad things" that China has done while conveniently ignoring the provocations from the US and its South Pacific deputy sheriff (I'm looking at you and ).

A balanced view might lessen the current sabre rattling.

Well yeah, he's a centrist, but Swan was the economics guy… (there's more interesting IP issues in India and Southern Africa… another-nother-story)

I don't agree with on everything, but i consider his a point of view wiorth listening to on some things. mostly i like this "let's NOT do WWIII" idea..

I actually much preferred at the time, another long side track… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leadersh (i wish we still did spills like that, is unimpressive)

But when was on a nuclear military shopping spree and demanding investigate the Wuhan lab … and was doing his chest thumping "prepare for war" rhetoric … i wanted the guy with at least half a clue about China to come back…

BREAKING!

Tudge Totally Innocent. Everyone Else at Fault.

Also: He had to cut short his holidays and leave (gasp, tears) his young family in England (as mentioned 200 times already).

This guy's as circuitous and disingenuous as Morrison but far more boring. At least was entertainingly idiosyncratic.

If Jacinda Adern says she does not have enough in the tank to press on, then SCOMO was running on empty for decades. I know which one is better, too!

Watching The Cult of Conspiracy: QAnon from SBS on demand I realised the significance of Morrison as a religious nut while associated with his QAnon relative. It gives reason to why he ingratiated himself with Trump. Looks like Australia missed a bullet

Morrison’s standing “deteriorated significantly through 2021 to become a significant negative” and both he and the Liberal party were “seen as out of touch”.
