Greetings from the northern German city of Hamburg and the beginning of a Thyssen Krupp Marine Systems media tour. They are one of two finalists for SEA 3000, the general purpose frigate project, but they are forbidden by Defence from discussing their proposal. This ridiculous level of secrecy seems to be in place purely to conceal Departmental incompetence and to cover up the growing possibility that no frigates will be built in Australia, ever.

With Canberra starting to return to normal we have a bit more to discuss on the domestic front. Firstly a thank you to Defence Industry Minister Pat Conroy, who agreed to an interview that will be published in full in June APDR. It was a wide ranging chat and we will continue to have different views on matters such as the Defence budget and also secrecy – but it’s good to be in dialogue.

We start with a clarification from the previous episode that Defence Industry Minister Pat Conroy has retained responsibility for capability delivery, even though those words have been removed from his title. And then a lot more about the unreliability of the US as an ally – a reality so obvious that everyone can see it, except for Australian politicians.

We have a new Federal government ministry – and it’s very much like the old one.

The election result is a surprisingly strong win for Labor, but it’s important to understand the basis for that. Yes, the Coalition ran a poor campaign and the ALP a good one – but the real reason for a reversal in poll numbers during the last 4 months is because of the Trump Effect, similar to what has occurred in Canada. It’s important not to lose sight of the big picture – Trump’s tariff war risks destroying the global economy and Australia will not be insulated from the consequences.
