Liberal Party Defence and National Security Policy Chair Lincoln Parker has slammed the Albanese government for “punching below” their weight by “bludging off our allies” by refusing to send a ship to the Red Sea.
In December, Australia denied a request from the United States to send a warship to the Red Sea as part of international efforts to safeguard ships from attacks by Iranian-backed Houthi rebels.
“We’re actually bludging right now off our allies. Australia relies on sea lanes for all of our important and all of our exports … we should be doing our bit,” Mr Parker told Sky News host Erin Parker.
“We were asked by the Americans to come out and send a ship for the Red Sea to stop an attack on all the shipping.
“Prime Minister Albanese has said no, and we’re not punching above our weight – we’re punching below our weight, and it’s a real shame.”

Albo is the weakest pm in living memory
And first of all, Stop selling our great high class Iron Ore to the Commo Chinese military so they can build their tanks and aircraft carriers with. Stop selling them anything for that matter, and Stop buying their rubbish. Let's stand on our own 2 feet and build our own stuff and export it to all friendly countries, except China. It's called being self sufficient. Let's try it some time.
Good. Ukraine was invaded because the allies got the Ukranians to surround Russia. Why are we protecting the Ukranian goverment who are trafficking kids and have bio lab facilities?
Guys we are officially in the END TIMES now. I stand with the Lord Jesus Christ the Lord of all, the one who gave his life for us on the cross at Calvary and you can also if like me you are fed up with and totally against this evil that is going on in our world, We are being pushed into a *new*world*order and the enemy is parading their evil like never before in our faces, the only way out of it all is by salvation through Jesus Christ and await his soon second coming to redeem us and destroy all evil. Repent of all sin and accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour today.
To receive Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour and be saved from sin–
Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gracious gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ. Please ask him into your heart for if you have read ths far into this post be assured that he is knocking at the door of your heart.
Albo and all the labor governments need to go. Better yet let them be disbanded as they seem more like a communistic/socialist party.
Maybe AnAl could send Putin a strongly worded letter.
You know they say once a bludger always one albo prooving that stereo type
I dont normally believe this but going by his history and present day action
The occupation of Palestine is the last phase of European colonialazation and notice that the countries that are most strongly in support of (Israel) are not just the US. It’s the united state, Australia and Canada. The offshoot of England. Anglosphere. Sometimes called unusual form of imperialism. These are settlers colonies societies. South Africa was little like this or Algeria under the French settlers colonial societies. In which the settlers came in essentially eliminated the native population. Also driven by religious principles.very religious groups. Driven by Christian Zionism. Those are major cultural factors. Noam chamsky
Free Free Palestine 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸
The government needs to be replaced as soon as possible, this government is dragging Australia down and destroying the nations reputation, global standing and sovreignty. This affects our citizens, our allies and our future as a nation. This government must be abolished to the back benches of parliament.
Seems standard for labor if they dont want it they destroy it so cant be used again
Who destroyed all the coal power stations last time
Who builds over price small hospitals
Then destroyed the one double the size
Besides if anyone knows anything about military this is normarl to keep or increase their budgets
Many vechiles tanks be buried in perfectly working order
A guy who calls his dog Toto, do u think hes got the ability to run a country?? 🤔
ALBO pro Palestine
Of course send them. How silly not to give them to Ukraine.
Imagine if we had to go to war with this clown managing the deployment. "Oh hang on, thats not my job, it the minister of defence's responsibility, I'm not going to step on his toes".
Albo is a lazy and weak leader , governer general has to step in , sack them all . They are destoying Australia . This is payback from albo and his elite mates ..
it’s all a distraction.
7.5 trillion reasons why NATO wants Ukraine…
Woke people are running the world and Australia is in deep shiznit
Albo is determined to destroy Australian nationality and its sovereignty. China expects us to "Do as we are told", which might suit Albo and the circus but I suffer from passive aggression and my answer to those who wish to give orders is intelligent disobedience. As an Australian I cannot follow orders from those who lie to me and treat me as inferior. I had enough of that in the military and will fight rather than meekly surrender to Chinese will! Australia needs a strong military and loyal allies BUT this requires a solid national identity and culture both of which are under attack by Labor sponsored woke policies! The helicopters are worthless to our national defence but Albo is worth even less!
Pm is pro Hamas terrorist, anti Isreal,pro communist party of china and pro islamists and anti Jewish right to defend
It doesn't make a fuk difference. USA can do everything, shit thing is USA start shit but cant end it.
A bludger, a coward, a vacuous merchant of waffle, a university activist that never grew up. Is Albanese the worst prime minister this country has ever seen?
Isn't the current government developing Australia's manufacturing of long-range missiles? They just signed a multi-million dollar deal to do that. The coalition never bothered to do that.
Australia should do more? They haven't done anything.
Start assessing who you are going to vote for in 2025. Our government said no to sending coal to Ukraine for winter, no to a warship to the Red Sea to assist our strongest allies and now we are supposedly burying nearly a $ billion dollars worth of Taipan helicopters in the sand, which Ukraine is desperate for and would accept. Time to stop the decay.
Albo wants us in bed with the Chinese.
Time to stand up, thus commie must be stopped.
Albo doesn't want to offend muslim votes or the pro palestine left.
Albo and his government – punch far below their weight. And no-one suspects. Albo and his labor colleagues – are really – clueless clowns – of the rotten Sheriff of Grayndler. He and his collective cabinet. Are all – ego's without a clue. They talk the talk. You can see their fake facade. Is all they have. They say anything – then when someone asks them – to explain themselves – it's everyone else's fault. You literally are looking at the kids of politics. It's just race & climate – there's no other policy – that exists.
Outside of that – he has nothing. His mind and those around him – are empty voids – of useless words and lies. They have nothing else to give or contribute. You really are looking at – the dumbest people – in Australia.
If they knew their job. They would have the economy – under control – the unions under control. And run a tight ship.
None of that. That's not important. The longer – The nutty sheriff of grayndler – is in town – the more you realise – the people from Fat Pizza are running Australia. The sheriff of grayndler and his merry band of brothers – are the low I.Q. crowd.
You watch any senior labor figure. It's always – lets talk about what they want to talk about. If they are asked questions. Their faces go blank. They have no idea – what they are even talking about. So they blame someone else. That's a labor press conference – every day. Pick any minister you like. All the exact same – thinking – exact same press conference outcome. And even their prepared – speech like the famous telstra ad – Emperor Nasi goreng – built the great wall of china – because there were to many rabbits in labor.
It's very Biden like. We don't care. We got nothing to say – it's everyone else's fault. They are saying – everyone is a fool. to them – and they don't care.
Ukraine is killing the Men and now the women sending them into war at the front line. And people think Ukraine's the good guys FFS. The United Nations start wars for profit yet people think and believe it's normal. WAKE UP, thus shit going on is the NEW WORLD ORDER at play, smart cities will be built in replacing the ones being distroyed and the death of millions is the Bill Gates Depopulation Program, again wake up people.
THE UKRAINIANS ASKED FOR THEM, NO THAT PATHETIC IMPOSTER ZELENSKI DEMANDED THEM AND IF U ASK, MOST AUSTRALIANS ARE NOT AWARE THAT THEY ( TAXPAYERS ) WOULD B PAYING FOR THEM TO B TRANSFERRED TO UKRAINE, IN WHICH WOULDN’T GO DOWN TO WELL !!
OH BTW, THE AUSTRALIAN PEOPLE PAID FOR THOSE HELICOPTERS, THEY BELONG TO US, IN WHICH ALL MSM KNOW THIS BUT NEVER SAY !!!
AUSTRALIA DOES NOT PULL THEIR WEIGHT !!!!! WT… MUST B HAVING A BLONDE MOMENT , OMG DISGUSTING !!!!!
hey albo the loser. how many millions have you donated to hmas and Houthis. why isn't our navy in the red sea protecting our brothers in blood for the last 1100 years.. could it be that you have done a secret deal to join our navy with the chinese ????? what about all those Aussies living in tents cause they can't afford to pay for their gas and elec bills and the HOMELESS>
THESE TWO INSIST ON AUSTRALIA TO STILL B APART OF THE SWAMP, NOT ME
HEY ALBO BE CAREFUL you being a unionist dont forget THE EUREGKA STOCKAGE that's when us Aussies got the s h i t s remember and you are giving everyone the S h i t s
So my tax payers dollars are being cut up and buried. Absolutely the wrong decision not to ship the Taipans to Ukraine. The last thing an Australian wants to be called is a bludger.
Why is the Defence department and Government Not Acting in the interests of the Defense Of Australia .. the Tiapan Helio Black-box showed No recorded Mechanical Fault .. So Why Has this Mediocre Government and Defence Grounded or I should Internment buried a perfectly good Helio even with any problems it may or may not have had seems this is a Political move by Labor ..meanwhile Australian Defense Force have no Rapid Response Helios for Emergency Operations Recent Floods .. etc .. Counter Terrorism and SAS operations ..So This Government Speaks about Waste well The Tiapan's are now a Wasted Working Military Asset .. How to wait for the New Black Hawks from the US . again the full ineptitude of Socialist Labor is on Display .. . plus the fact we cant field more frigates is appalling .Sighting the need for readiness here in the Pacific yet Trade routes go directly through the Red Sea … Obviously Labor Greens Teals can't read a Map .. No crewing Military Assets gets harder when the Government and Media Educational Institutions constantly Denigrating Australia and also attacking ANZAC Day the ADF personnel.. the Alleged War Crimes Without Presentation of Evidence not a Verbalization from some member of the Taliban.. plus some disgruntled former SASR member Guilty until proven innocent then there's the Woke Military Brass the Top Echelon Elites removing Service Metals from ADF Service Men . and then there's the treatment of ADF Widows
Albo is a bludger, weak as pi5s.
labor sux, Airbus is a wef puppet
We should not give 1 cent to Ukraine, the most corrupt country in the world. Maybe these security experts can explain why Ukraine’s bureaucrats are buying up expensive yachts and investment properties around the world and explain where the $100B+ in funds have gone. They have totally ignored the Minsk agreement signed in 2014 and not even attempted to broker peace with Russia. Ukraine is just a Ponzi scheme.
How about he does the same to Palestine. Stop donating money to Hamas. Albanese is supporting the wrong side. And going against the general public in doing so. Just another example of idiocy from the worst PM we’ve ever had.
We should give nothing to Ukraine.
Australia is shameful😮 im disgusted
Australia cant prevent proterror protests, let alone fit to fight a war.
My wife was right with something she said in childbirth…labor is a pain.
