Shadow Defence Minister Andrew Hastie says Labor has “not been serious” about Australia’s defence strategy.
Mr Hastie told Sky News host Sharri Markson that Labor has spent “no new money” since the Defence Strategic Review was handed down.
“We’re not recruiting enough people into Defence,” he said.
“I can tell you countless stories of people who want to serve but can’t for a whole range of reasons which are ridiculous.
“And we’re not retaining enough people.”

I am no fan of Labor, but saying this, the coalition was absolutely disastrous when it came to defence in their more then a decade in power.

When has any of our governments care about our defence it's all way been we wait an Yanks will turn at the last minute.
Anyone that repeats catch catchphrases should never be trusted!
Australia has always had weak PMs when it came to defence since after the second world war 😂😂
Yeah they have, serious about destroying its capacity to defend Australia against China
I thought you would be a good politician Andrew, you really got to start telling the truth and stop supporting bullshit
And you know it!
There's no point in trying to catch up with the world powers at this point, save the money invest in diplomacy
They are only series about woke agendas pay rises for themselves and destroying the economy.
