Who would of guessed that Morry was going to torpedo the deal with the french. Our relationship with france has sunk to a new low. I don't think that a bottle of french champagne will be broken over the bow of any of our new AUKUS diving tubes.

The big question now is going to be the naming of our glorious aquaducks. HMAS Horizon or HMAS Houston are a possibility, my favourite is HMAS Lachlan.

Good choices, encompassing tradition as well as more current concerns.

I like Das Boot and Wreckless Eric.

Abusive. The entire relationship with the federal LNP is abusive

However France, if you feel you need to take Scotty back to a secure site somewhere in France or one of your Pacific dominions so you can have a "good" talk to him, please don't let us stop you...we understand.

Perhaps the Chateau d'If, as in The Count Of Monte Cristo

I hope France takes the opportunity to stick it to Aus in every negotiation we try to enter into with the EU.

The future will reveal the ramifications of this shift in global strategy. The longer term effects may result in the Lucas Heights fuel rods, that have to be reprocessed every few decades by being sent to the garlic Gaul's plants for a tune up, being told, sorry we are all full up, go fuck yourselves.

Will the most farcial democracy the western world say, yeah give us all your toxic waste and your huddled masses from Nauru.

When our farmers, vintners, most of whom rely on our government sudsides to stay solvent, those that are still in business that is, and don't forget our purveyors of exquisite delicacies, and who could forget our rocks and minerals extracted from our very big holes in the ground, are given the two fingered salute

Our ministerial policy on the exchange of certain ministerial Au Pair girlies, will impact the glitterati of those suburds that don't pay any tax

Don't forget all of you minions in voter land that the ad man from the nether regions is only doing the work of the big Kahuna himself, as he has admitted to his inner circle. You can't argue with that sort of government policy.

Whilst the SitzKrieg, before the armaments profiteers reap their harvest of donations to the Liberal party erupts, we could use our budget blow out / emergency, Hockeyism, for our great Australian steam boats to spend some training time to look for the wreck of the elusive flying Malaysian. After all the garlic gang used their subway, kettle boilers, to find what was left of AF 447 in the middle of the Atlantic.

I suspect the poor people of Perth will be compelled to wear Dosimeters in case of a government denied leak from the bubbling cauldren in their dockyard.

My therapists has just rung to tell me I have gone manic again.

And then you made no mention of his Armageddon cult membership - clearly M. le Président Macron - you were not genuflecting to that same "jealous" god - so if you weren't up for throwing your hands up in the air - random Heil Hs in the mix, mind - you were clearly up for ditching! Au revoir!

Good point. Yeah avoid love interests in kooky cults, infact avoid anyone involved with kooky cults.

I speak from near cult experience - fundamentalist protestant - not as prosperity theology nor waving hands in the air. We paid tithe - believed in doing good (parable of the good Samaritan and the Beatitudes kinds of injunctions)...and eschewed drugs (coffee/tea/alcohol/nicotine)...and other in the world but not of it separateness!

Is "prosperity theology" a fancy term for a cargo cult? Must come close.
