Just imagine you in Malaysian parliament in same role it's ludicrous ridiculous and CCP treason ffs she/he has no clue so why is he/she here????? She/he is an implant get him/her out now charge with treason how much more do we have to put up with here and whyyyyyyy is this other pudgy dumpy woman there to not answer another question are they all just so incompetent we see you trans visibility Wong Australia certainly sees you !!!!.Loud and clear
I don't think Penny Wong cares much about Australia's security in relation to trade routes.She is more concerned in getting Palestinian refugees into universities .
Penny rudely interrupted stating she is the minister and has a right to answer the question that was not directed at her, babbled on and didn’t answer the question, was she just attempting to cover for their incompetence, her arrogance is astounding, and her attempts at belittling David is pathetic. Thankyou David for remaining composed and steadfast against these bullies and their intimidation tactics.
Is this what I am hearing ? The dept waits for NATO to tell them what to do and say - so why don’t we get to vote who NATO is if that’s who we take our riders from ?
Do not talk down to or try to evade the questions, as advised by Albo. Senator David Fawcett is on a far superior level than this arrogant Minister or the overpaid Public Servants.
The diversion and obfuscation techniques used in answering questions is mindboggling and if gives the impression that the Labor government doesn't know what it is doing.
Thank you Senator David Fawcett who really cares about Australia and demonstrates enormous respect to those who showed little. I understand your question, which is basically saying Department of Defence and DFAT both have a role in protecting Australia, DOD does that militarily, and DFAT does it via diplomacy and foreign relations. What has DFAT done to protect Australia through their activities?
Funny, my years of school doing ‘comprehension’, says the last question is about diplomacy not defence. It’s not a defence question. It was a defence insult. Defence still won’t be able to answer the question.
"What specifically are you doing diplomatically for the Australian's and our mining to protect them from foreign interests?" "We are working with the world to work better with the world"
We store on shore virtually no oil or other essential imports. We own no tankers so in a conflict we would be abandoned. We are led by idiots at best. I am not permitted to to say anything stronger
The best we can do as a nation is to vote out all incompetent labor leaders of our great nation we can’t afford to live due to the incompetence of state and federal governments don’t forget badly state labor governments of Victoria Queensland and Western Australia managed Covid
And, replace incompetent Labor with the incompetent coalition? At least Labor is responsible for Australia’s AAA stable credit rating and, Dutton should give Labor those In the Black mugs. The current economic problem is Government wants to stimulate the Economy, while the RBA is trying to reduce inflation. What was worse Chairman Dan’s police state during COVID or Dictator Morrison’s secret visits to the G-G to take on a suite of Government portfolios? Hard to choose a side, when both sides are undesirable.
And FYI what is with all the young Asian recruits to Australia's military defence???? Just go down to Chatswood, NSW, regularly and you will see nothing BUT young Asians in military wear with red berets
Utopia covered this paradox in one episode - we have to keep our shipping lanes open and safe from our greatest perceived adversary. And our biggest trading partner is ...???
Until Australia gets rid of CASG and their useless processes we will always lack current and effective military capability. I worked nearly 40 years in defence industry in the UK and Australia, 15 in Australia where I witnessed the most horrific waste of resources in the Air, Land and Sea domains, worse than the UK. Primarily caused by the DMO now CASG. For us to have an effective defence they have to go.
@@Floormassacred Thanks for asking all we need is good lawyers writing availability contracts that lock the defence companies into providing the capability to the ADF, much like we did in the UK and has been done in a small way with the RAAF. CASG has no incentive to make a decision and is highly inefficient in supporting the forces. I have seen it first-hand on many Australian programs, mostly land and sea-related.
Australia has enjoyed generations of prosperity so where is the defence capability to show for all this wealth? Governments in this country on both sides of politics are elected and then promise all sorts of outcomes, only to do nothing while they serve out their time in office before passing the problem on to the next government who then repeat the same process. Labour sat on the submarine question when they were last in office for six years and did nothing before passing it on to the Coalition government who then lost another nine years. That is why we won't have any submarines to replace the Collins class until the 2040’s. Words mean nothing, anyone can say words. What matters in the end is real military capability which is why China is busily arming itself today. We have been badly served by both sides of politics in this country.
I’ve been listening to Penny Wongs crap for two years now and have come to a very simplistic conclusion which I’m sure no one else has seen that she only works for money and doesn’t like Australia. I may be wrong
There have been new technology developments by Ukraine. There is extensive use of GIS, GPS and aerial drones with hyperspecteral imagining cameras for detecting and the mapping of minefields. Also in use is water bourne sonar and other technologies for mine detection. ALP is incompentent when it comes to defence. The danger is that ALP appears to lean towards peace without any strength or defence assets. Since 1992, there appears to be a trend not to finish or deliver defence projects......why? Incompetence or something else? We are far less defence prepared than Ukraine was, when they suffered an unexpected invasion. A sudden thrust into Australia at key terrain points and it will be all over and AUstralia will cease to exist as it once was. This despite the WEF/Globalist's promises which I suspect that the ALP are relying on.
The answer is no , words are cheap it is action that is meaningful, but hard. No not true Labor has been doing a policy of appeasement with China. Not to say anything to but China off side.
Folks were in a dangerous position and our politicians are incompetent and have got us in this position to begin with . All the rubbish talk won't help us when war ships start coming into our waters aggressively launching rockets at cities and infrastructure. All that march in solidarity garbage won't help . Trained and fully equiped and expanded military navy and airforce ,including equipment and installations and large stockpiles of ammunition, will help us. Expanding our capabilities to make weapons vehicles, rockets, jets, sea vessels, etc, is where we need to be right now. With the coal fires cranking to make it happen asap . All the talk , all the redirect, all the fanciful visions of nuclear power 10 years from now, or green energy targets is a pipe dream by some inbecile who is out of touch with reality and putting us into an even more dangerous position. These people got behind the ball and let our let us become sitting ducks while they worried more about allowing foreigners flood our shores , and while they been selling out our ports and our country to the highest bidder . Thinking hand shakes and money making is going to save the day .
"Only Trump could go to Nth Korea!" Recommend re-acquainting yourselves with the STILL potent and most relevant ANZUS Treaty, which states, "The Parties to this Treaty, Reaffirming their faith in the purposes & principles of the Charter of The U.N, desiring to live in Peace with all peoples & all Govts, & desiring to strengthen the fabric of Peace..."
ANZUS is dead and buried. Even though it hasn’t officially been terminated the US suspended it’s treaty obligations towards NZ in 1986. The Australia - US alliance remains in full force.
@@garyhankinson5695 read "threats to Australia's Security". Joint Parliamentary Committee 1981, paragraphs 39 & 40 (F. A & Def) are of keen interest. Its alive, its potency is more than real, its ""genuine", 3rd Millennium compatible (as demonstrated by Pres Bush 9/11), and binding!

@@kkcw6668 as you say AUKUS is a technology and information sharing pact. Having this makes us stronger and closer to our 2 biggest allies. Which in turn will strengthen fabric of peace as another country would think twice about invading us.

Congratulations on your sharply focussed, calm and persistent questioning. Minister Wong’s obvious discomfort under your questioning speaks volumes.
She's not at all uncomfortable. She's giving measured answers to the questions. She is not the defence minister.
Just imagine you in Malaysian parliament in same role it's ludicrous ridiculous and CCP treason ffs she/he has no clue so why is he/she here????? She/he is an implant get him/her out now charge with treason how much more do we have to put up with here and whyyyyyyy is this other pudgy dumpy woman there to not answer another question are they all just so incompetent we see you trans visibility Wong Australia certainly sees you !!!!.Loud and clear
Australians need a security force to protect them from worthless goverments.
Thank you Senator David Fawcet. Facinating insight into the shallowness of Ms Wong and the well paid crew.
I don't think Penny Wong cares much about Australia's security in relation to trade routes.She is more concerned in getting Palestinian refugees into universities .
All they need was O'Neil to complete the absolute numptys pack
Penny rudely interrupted stating she is the minister and has a right to answer the question that was not directed at her, babbled on and didn’t answer the question, was she just attempting to cover for their incompetence, her arrogance is astounding, and her attempts at belittling David is pathetic. Thankyou David for remaining composed and steadfast against these bullies and their intimidation tactics.
Totally agree 😂
Truly vile beastly women
The fact that the minister can’t answer questions just shows how incompetent she is and the Labor government in many areas
The Wong is always Wrong
Buddy this is all governments. They all talk around the topic without answering yes or no.
Why is one left always with a feeling of exasperation when dealing with minsters.
He had to dumb the question down for them and they still couldn’t answer it without being emotional and pathetic
Only way to get rid of the incompetence of this Labor government is to vote them out
Yes, we're sorry to, that you're on the bench 😢
Jobs on merit. What is on display is ignorance by the current government appointees.
This is a good example of what happens when DEI rules are applied.
Should take a look at the LNP DEI attempt. Sussan Ley, scream Cash, Bridget McKenzie?
Is this what I am hearing ?

Well, they don't
Those women have no idea, waste of time
This is our department of foreign affairs and trade oh myyyyyyyy gawdddddddd

Wing should look people in the eye when “answering “
Totally inadequate ministerial leadership

You ask good questions and you do it politely, Thanks! ... Shame about the stonewalling though
How can we feel safe when our own government dodges giving answers and is on the defensive ?
"What specifically are you doing diplomatically for the Australian's and our mining to protect them from foreign interests?" "We are working with the world to work better with the world"
I've seen a cornered cat with that look :-)
Hows about all able migrants do National Service! There's 500,000 of them comming in to Australia.

The Australian voter has led us to this place, this country is done without a fight.
We can't afford to get this Wong 😮😂😂
How does he know it was a Russian mine,Ukraine placed mines in the ports and parts of the black Sea.
Time for defense to step up less talk and more work including rebuilding ADI getting rid of foreign influence!
And FYI what is with all the young Asian recruits to Australia's military defence???? Just go down to Chatswood, NSW, regularly and you will see nothing BUT young Asians in military wear with red berets
Cadets.
@@XxBloggs duuuuhhhhhh recruits!!!!
Just answer the questions not b# s#
Is the question asked being answered or do we just get the marketing spin from DFAT?

Nobody knows 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Another Russian bot. You can't spell, Boris.
She/he can't put a sentence together just rehearsed nonsense that sounds like a bad ESL class 😂😂😂😂😂😂

I agree with most of that. No point in accumulating assets if they can just be taken off you, due to poor defence systems
Should be more worried about the security implications of Katie and Andrew Barrs tram ….. just sayin’ ….
CMET isn’t it?
Forget the fact that the mines floating in the Ukraine are old Ukraine mines that Russia offered to clear.
The NIEVETY of these Women is DANGEROUS.
Your lack of spelling skills is DANGEROUS.

In other words their not doing much to keep australia safe
Speak into the microphone, Penny!
WHAT ABOUT HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER
Close the borders.
You might need a chalk board next time and draw a diagram or something.. maybe employ some sort of interpreter even 🤪
