Last week in the world, Australia upset the apple cart by buying new subs from America and the UK instead of the French. The French deal has been in place for many years and is worth a fair bit of money. The French are pissed off at this decision and you cannot really blame them. Australia, as usual, is easily swayed when making decisions and lately I feel many of the decisions they have made are shite. The fear and paranoia of America is spreading worse than Covid.

Australia has always wanted to play with the big boys, but no one really takes them seriously. Australia is the child in the room that wants to be an adult. They want to go to the parties and join in with all the old guys but they are just too young and naïve and an easy touch……..

They want to have a drink but they are too young to handle it and then someone offers them a beer and they get all excited and the bravado kicks in and they will do anything they are asked to do to curry favour.

America pretends to be the nice big brother but in reality, he is a psychopath. Australia wants to please its big brother so much and will always do what it can to make him happy, even over the last four years when he was really going off his rocker. However, underneath Big Brother has always been cunning, manipulative, psychotic and an all-round selfish bastard……….however wee brother still wants to please and can’t see the reality.

And so, when big brother says to his wee brother, “Tell the French go and Fuck themselves! You don’t want to buy their smelly diesel submarines; you want our shiny new nuclear submarines which are really really good”

“Ok where do we sign up?”

“Right here me boy…..”

Meanwhile Big Brother does not tell wee brother that they have just been conned into being cannon fodder in the event of a fight with the local gang, and plus the fact they have been conned out of their lives savings. They are so gullible……….remember the last time they bought some planes? That didn’t work out as planned…..

However, wee brother is too stupid to see the big picture and happily embraces the death eagle and invites him to come to his home and bring all your friends and at the same time Fuck the Dragon.

Not only has Australia annoyed the French, the rest of the neighbourhood ain’t very happy either and I am not sure that the Australian population is on the side of government. I thought the Pacific was a nuclear free zone.

As part of the deal there will be more Americans on Australian soil, not a good idea. You may as well paint a target on the country and send invites out to every radical on the planet. Mind you I remember them being so happy when they could finally announce that there had been a terrorist attack in Sydney, and they were so happy that they could finally join that club.

Only thing I like about America are the land yachts.

We need to keep America at arm’s length and not to support them with every whim that they might have. America just loves a conflict, especially when it’s far away from America. Remember it is a war economy……

I moved to Australia many years ago and was happy that it was far from the maddening crowd. We had a war monger in the name of Maggie. In Australia people were just enjoying the sunshine and the wide-open spaces, tickling a Koala and riding kangaroos.. In all those years, Australia has desperately tried to join the global community, to be part of something bigger but they just have not had the right qualifications. Right now they have the opportunity to join one of the most important global issues and that is climate change, but they would rather try to get into the Eurovision song contest instead.

For want of a better word, Lapdog comes to mind. This petulant, racist country can only associate with the same creed, not those pesky Asians, and they may as well get conned along the way.

Meanwhile senior government ministers are doing the rounds of neighbouring countries to rally support, for something. What a sorry bunch they are. Trying so hard to embrace their Asian neighbours but they don’t know how, it’s difficult to watch the awkwardness of them. Not one of them has a semblance of a personality; a smile seems as foreign to them as they try to keep their racist views under wraps.

On TV the other night I watched a discussion on the possibility of war with China. I lasted 5 minutes and had to switch off. How fucking stupid are they? Australia is like an ant by comparison. Yes the country is big but it has a population similar to that of Shanghai. Too many war mongers being allowed to comment so that they can get their 15 minutes of fame or better still make a quid. These “experts” are dangerous. And don’t think that for one minute America has its back.

China will continue to push and push and where that will end I don’t know. For years they have slowly impregnated countries by stealth and no one seems to have noticed or cared. They are like fungi in some respects and the root system lying beneath is extensive and no one can really quantify it. Their world domination is different to past empires that went out to conquer the world by shouting loudly and starting wars, no they come bearing gifts and set financial traps for the unwary.

We live in interesting and scary times. Social media gives a voice to the nutters and the tribes will emerge once more and if we are not careful the global community will fracture because it will become harder to distinguish fact from fiction……..
