Every single story about AUKUS and how bad it is could have been an opportunity to absolutely smash Dutton over how bad the Libs are on defence.

US congressional analysis blunt on AUKUS difficulties
A new budgetary report said it would be 'difficult and expensive' to sell Virginia class submarines to Australia without compromising the US Navy.

People still tend to think of gas as a vital industry to Australia, but the truth is, if anything, it costs the Australian economy.

Australians herded towards cynicism by the general air of ‘nothing to see here’ from the NACC costing us $140 million so far, and as transparent and briskly free-flowing as a tin can of black molasses.
After 18 months of operation and a cost of $140 million to Australians, the staggeringly incompetent NACC has concluded its top 3 major corruption investigations, and guess what?
It has found no corruption.
The #NACC is a failure and a national embarrassment.

NACC finds “no corruption” – spends $140m to date

The thing is - the Australian Government should take the 'strongest possible action' with any Country which deliberately harms an Australian citizen - but it doesn't.
It's selective based on the politics of the day - and it shouldn't be. We're all less safe with this approach #auspol
