I literally need to make 2 phone calls and the team will be here within a month.

As for our critical dilemma over fuel reserves and lack of refinery facilities, the undeniable fact is that Australia possesses massive oil reserves under the Arkaringa Basin in South Australia. More specifically shale oil which this woke government will not even contemplate to touch. Those reserves are calculated to be similar to those of Saudi Arabia. Already the USA has chosen to access their shale oil deposits and has in the space of ten years not only become self sufficient in fuel but also has become one of the leading exporters. Given the fact that China is also heavily dependent on the passage of Middle East oil, I ask everyone reading this - do you think they would have any qualms in accessing our shale oil if the USA suddenly fell under Donald Trump’s spell and withdrew from the region??

We cannot afford both a $39bn pa Aboriginal industry AND a viable defence policy. One or the other must go.

The sad part of this is, its a consequence of 20+ years of poor government of both stripes combined with poor quality General Staff officers in the ADF. No question this is a significant failure and one that needs to be fixed quickly. The reality is, many very good, capable and well intentioned people have been pointing this out for many, many years and it has fallen on deaf ears.

finally some truth from a labor minister, we are totally vulnerable, close up the sea routes and we are done, all governments are guilty, we are living in a fools paradise. she'll be right mate is over, rip the money out of the many wasteful programs and start buying serious military gear, start with the aboriginal industry.

Mr Marles, China has been preparing for Tawianese War for years, and now you are worried?

Andrew we've had the ability to know what was coming, but no-one admitted it or put anything forward to counter it, for the last 20 years. Putting mass money into military equipment for immediate receipt would only result in more land based vehicles, that we haven't got soldiers for. No our fight will be on the sea & as actions as are in process to strengthen our Navy/Airforce. Orders have already been placed, with a couple of naval procurements to come. These Orders have only eventuated under our current government. Yes they should have happened previously, but they didn't. Building ships, planes,subs takes time, we can only hope that our current actions will suffice.

AHHHH YES THE TYPICAL POLATITIONS MARKETING SPEECH PROMISE THE WORLD & DELIVER NOTHING.

Australia is an incredibly rich country. Australia should do what Sweden is doing. Sweden has a military/industrial complex that makes it self-sufficient in everything: firearms, grenades, mortar shells, artillery shells, strike jets, tactical air superiority fighters, tanks, armoured vehicles, ... you name it. Sweden can supply themselves. Australia should have done that years ago. The army should be three times larger than it is and heavily trained for amphibious warfare. The nuclear submarines should already be part of the navy. Australia should have aimed to be the second largest aircraft carrier force in the world. Nero has been fiddling while Rome has been burning.
