    In an awkward moment from the joint press conference earlier today, Joe Biden appeared to forget the Australian prime minister’s name as he gave his remarks on the new partnership.

    The US president could only refer to Scott Morrison as “that fella Down Under” and “Mr Prime Minister”, while he mentioned Boris Johnson correctly by name.

    America's leader can't even remember your head of state's name but they're more than glad to have you as a first line of defence against the PLA.

      Given the general popular support for the nuclear-free policy in NZ I look forward to conservative polling dropping even further. I know Arden is a lib but she riles up the chuds so much I can't help but enjoy it.

    honestly, based on our recent track record, they will probably leak after a week at sea and break the neck of everyone aboard when they surface

    We've been embargoing Iran for decades because we suspect they might have a nuclear program, yet we're just handing Australia nuclear submarines because China wouldn't buy their wine. :anglo-burn:

      Agree with you but it's a nuclear powered submarine, not for nuclear weapons. Non proliferation doesnt apply here
