natecochrane.bsky.social @natecochrane.bsky.social · 28/09/2026↪ Replying to @rbreich.bsky.socialThis is Australian PM & Trump loyalist Anthony Albanese’s & Labor’s go-to every time progressive policies are raised. They have half a trillion dollars to spend on #Aukus even as they kick Aussies off medical programs, and their mismanagement means people must skip meals to pay rent. #auspol 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 18/09/2026If this govt.: •quit $$$s on #AUKUS & the like to the #Military-IndustrialComplex •applied a 25% #TaxTheGas rate •paying diesel subsidies to the mining sector, etc. •cut down on corporate & billionaires tax evasion. Maybe cutting stuff that benefits all 🇦🇺s may not be required. #auspol 020
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 15/09/2026I call 🐂💩 on Rudd’s position around the maintenance of the #AUKUS scam. Given the shit procurement process from our govt. this con will likely push the $1 trn mark, can we as a country afford this? The UK is bailing out. There will be no submarines only USN SSN VC boats via RSFW Stirling. #auspol 010
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 14/09/2026What f**kin’ planet do these people inhabit? 🇺🇸 is setting us up to be dragged into a conflict with China & making HMAS Stirling a prime target. After blindingly marching lockstep with the US Military-Industrial complex into the ME & Afghanistan 🇦🇺should say NO, just Fuck Off. #auspol #AUKUS 031
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 13/09/2026The next major 🇺🇸 war will be against 🇦🇺 #1 trading partner. That war will naturally will not impinge on American soil but will be fought via remote control from #PineGap & #HaroldEHolt using RSFW Stirling, thereby putting a 🎯 on my community sitting on Stirling's doorstep. #auspol #AUKUS 092
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 12/09/2026www.instagram.com/reel/DdLQxC4... The meeting was pretty much opposed to #AUKUS State Labor MP Sanderson reverted to casting aspersions and basically labelling the #Greens party as fringe, Sophie McNeill touched a nerve. #auspolinstagram.comInstagramCreate an account or log in to Instagram - Share what you're into with the people who get you. 010
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 12/09/2026The impact on our community will be immense. •housing •infrastructure •security The analogy used yesterday was “they are building the plane as we take off”. Morning coffee looking across at the base watching the movement of naval ships including occasional VC submarine thinking WTF. #auspol #AUKUS 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 11/09/2026I sat in an #AUKUS forum yesterday listening to 2 politicians 1 state 1 federal selling us this deal as a great employment opportunity, ignoring the rationale of the US wanting to fight our #1 trading partner dragging 🇦🇺 along with it. The mood appeared to be anti #AUKUS. #auspol 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 11/09/2026With the antipathy towards the @australianlabor.bsky.social state & federal, the mood I saw was not pro #AUKUS so the Greens representatives headlined by Sophie McNeil did themselves no favours with the forum audience towards the end with their sometimes strident interjections. #auspol #Greens 011
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 11/09/2026The #ABCMornings #Spotlight Forum on the #AUKUS wound up, kudos to Rockingham Mayor for her assessment on the failings of state & federal govts as well as the needs of the local community. State & Federal MPs were not well received with the level of antipathy towards #AUKUS quite high. #auspol 131
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Sitting at an #ABCMornings #Spotlight forum in Rockingham in relation to the #AUKUS debacle that will ultimately be to the detriment of this community, & country as a whole. We are saddling future generations with a debt not of their asking all the while putting a target on our backs. #auspol 436
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 07/09/2026This is a braindead policy. How did the ADF audit supplier capability & say this is good? They have limited capacity to restock their own inventory so the US will never release used VC subs. The govt has set up mine & my children’s front yards in #Brand to be targets. #auspol #AUKUS #voteGreens 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Sitting on the Rockingham foreshore across from the WA US submarine base this morning enjoying a coffee watching our resident humpback whale do what whales do & what do I see but some dickhead on jet ski head up to circle it. It goes to show that people just don’t care. #auspol #AUKUS 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Spot fucking on! #AUKUS will #FAUKUS. #auspol 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 06/09/2026The 1st US submarine base in 🇦🇺 is 4-5 kms from my front door in the once safe Labor seat of #Brand & the degree to which I am unhappy about it is unparalleled & cannot be understated. We are now a legitimate target in any conflict 🇺🇸 drags us into! #AUKUS needs to go! #auspol 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 06/09/2026We were never ever going to get submarines. #AUKUS probably dreamed up when Trump 1.0, #ScottyfromMarketing & Boris the Bozo were in power. It is now so set in stone whereby we are essentially the US imperialist’s largest Sthn Hemisphere base from which to attack our #1 trading partner. #auspol 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 05/09/2026No $$$s for social programs or the betterment of our country, yet we willing hand close to $1/2 trillion to the 🇺🇸 military-industrial complex #AUKUS needs to stop #AmericaIsNoAlly close US bases now #auspol 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 05/09/2026They are currently building a ☢️ waste dump on Garden Island at this very moment. Local hospitals/health campuses will or have been stocked will iodine tablets. Tell me this is a govt who give 2 fucks about its electorate! End #AUKUS now! #auspol 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 05/09/2026HMAS Stirling is dead & now we have US submarine base RSFW Stirling. Ceding 🇦🇺 sovereignty through lies & 🐂💩by Morrison & now the @albomp.bsky.social govt. is laid bare. #AUKUS was always about having a 🇺🇸 Indian Ocean base to prosecute a war on our #1 trading partner & dragging 🇦🇺 with it. #auspol 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 05/09/2026The Aust govt. has been conned & continues to be conned by a duplicitous US regime ably supported by the UK govt. Anybody with an ounce of heavy engineering knowledge knows these submarines are illusionary for the ADF. Stop propping up the ailing USN shipbuilding sector end #AUKUS now. #auspol 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Yes we are the cash cow. By what supply audit measure did our ADF assess capability to deliver of 🇺🇸 or 🇬🇧. When I used to do stuff like that for a living:- the 🇺🇸 •no craft labour The 🇬🇧 •technical capability poor. Both 🇺🇸&🇬🇧financials are suspect to fund the scope so not recommended. #AUKUS #auspol 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Where in the USN priority list does #AUKUS sit: •update current naval inventory - new SSN VC boats yrs behind to trigger 3 used boats 1/3 way through their life cycle. •build trumps vanity battleships & other surface ships & missile class subs All this with no blue collar craft labour. #auspol 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 05/09/2026This country is governed by timid people. 💩scared of the🇺🇸 #Kleptocracy we pay close to 1/2 trillion $$s, ceding 🇦🇺sovereignty for something we will never see #AUKUS! So scared of being labelled antisemitic by the #Gaza regime we provide visas & security for IDF members to run in a marathon! #auspol 022
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 03/09/2026With the establishment of the US submarine base a few short kms from my front door I feel comfortable knowing that our #feckless PM & #Kegsbreath fanboy Marles have now placed a 🎯 fair & square on our backs & for that we can be eternally grateful, NOT! Time to end #AUKUS now. #auspol 000
paulwa14.bsky.social @paulwa14.bsky.social · 02/09/2026💯spot on. 🇺🇸 degraded their naval shipbuilding industrial base in the mid ‘90s & now have realised a generation or 2 have been steered away from vocational trade training, the 🇺🇸 has limited capacity to update their submarine & surface ship inventory. #AUKUS is a $368b scam on 🇦🇺 taxpayers. #auspol 000
