With Labor and the Coalition supporting the increased integration of our defence capabilities into the US/UK military industrial/big tech complex and no prospect of any transparent Parliamentary inquiry, a group of concerned Australians have been working to establish an open, public inquiry into the economic, environmental, social and political implications of the AUKUS agreement.>

The individuals and groups supporting a public inquiry include retired politicians and military officers, unions, community, peace and, faith groups, members of Labor against War, academics and business people.

Alas people treat it more like sports.

that aside over a decade ago the ABC did a thing online before the federal election, had a bunch of policy choices you clicked on then which party which you mostly align with was shown (not a who you should vote for), i remember sending the link out to a dozen people and asked them to screen shot and ket me know the result, 9 of them had them aligned with The Greens and they all said "not voting for them".
