An excellent @ABCnews report by Alex Barwick on the huge public gathering in Alice Springs over the weekend to protest the presence of the US military surveillance base. The #PineGap protests brought together disparate parts of a building coalition. abc.net.au/listen/program…
The tip of the iceberg. As the ALP pours obscene amounts of our money into the military/ industrial complex, grifters, thieves, opportunists and greedy ex politicians queue up to line their pockets. Marles must act decisively and demand the accused faces an open criminal trial.

AUKUS Inquiry via Christopher Pyne reveals the bipartisan agenda to support USA military hegemony in the Asia Pacific @KellieTranter
Catching the dawn coming up on Arrente land near Simpson Gap in the NT this morning. This country is so beautiful.
The size of these US bases is really staggering. So much US tax dollars wasted. #MIGA
[Why hasn't the Australian government just come out and said that a critical reason for AUKUS is to give America a military base in the Indian Ocean. Christopher Pyne's statement of that fact is understated but definite. Yet another demonstration of why we need more information about exactly what AUKUS means for Australia.] "And the media coverage of AUKUS is very much about the submarine procurement, but it's a lot more than the submarine procurement. And from a strategic point of view, it's not something that's ever really discussed in the public, but it's one of the most important aspects of it. AUKUS is also a new United States submarine base in the Indian Ocean. The US doesn't have a submarine base in the Indian Ocean. A submarine base in your city can, at HMAS Stirling. In the Second World War, HMAS Stirling hosted 140 submarines. It was one of the biggest submarine bases on the globe, because the Dutch, the British, the Americans, the Australians based their submarines at HMAS Stirling. It's actually a fabulous submarine base. And it's been great for Australia, of course, for the Collins-class. But for the Americans, being able to have a submarine base in the Indian Ocean is a massive strategic advantage." ~ Former Defence Minister, Christopher Pyne, at the #AUKUSPublicInquiry #AUKUSPublicInquiry #auspol
