Oh so a rich french man can enter the country. But not us ordinary people...being kept away from our loved ones.

This govt needs to be sacked by the GG

Lucky him.

Who cares

It's not the first time he's stabbed someone in the back. Turnbull

Speak English or lose contracts is the message.

Aren’t they several billion dollars over budget and at least a decade behind schedule?, kick rocks sir

Strange that this is making more international headlines than Scott Morrison's announcement on the international stage of AUKUS. Maybe because it has made the world aware that Australia can no longer be trusted for major international agreements.

The Australian PM LIED to the French President LAST MONTH. Where are our diplomats? Where is the constraint on this PM? The guy is worse than a loose cannon. ThatFellaDownUnder

Au revoir!!!

Seeya

This is an absolute disaster diplomatically! Scott lied to the French Government. He strung them along. We asked the French to convert a nuclear sub to be a non-nuclear sub then dumped them because it wasn't nuclear!?! It is going awfully:

Can't help out of work Australians but can dump money into submarines? The f**k is wrong with this guy?

Australia ‘regrets’ French ambassador recall but makes no apology for new subs dealThe federal government has hit back at criticism from France over the decision to tear up a contract to buy 12 French submarines, defending the move as in Australia’s “clear and communicated national security interests”. | James Massola, Bevan Shields ... What, communicated as clearly and with as many lies as that lot uses to communicate with its own constituency? ScottMorrisonMP prove it, as France also has nuclear submarines and the technology so it’s just a matter of changing the propulsion from diesel to nuclear that could have been done under the current contract with France. What else are you not telling Australia come clean!!

'A clumsy, inadequate and unAustralian situation': French Ambassador departs Canberra after recallJean-Pierre Thebault leaves Canberra offering a scathing analysis of Australia's diplomacy in recent days, describing the decision to scrap the government's $90 billion submarine contract as a 'huge mistake'. It’s not up to up to people from overseas territories to tell us what is and what isn’t ‘Australian’. What is Australian is the protection of Australians. Hope France has learnt their lesson. Next time, make it a contract. French ambassador to Australia seen at residence.
