Scott Morrison has rejected claims the US expected the Labor Party to be briefed on the AUKUS agreement after Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese exploded at the Prime Minister for failing to seek bipartisan support.

Mr Albanese said Mr Morrison broke trust with the United States, after the Biden Administration insisted it would only pursue the nuclear-powered submarine agreement if it had support from both major Australian parties.

The Morrison government was accused of failing to consult with the Labor Party until the day before the partnership was announced, according to a report by Sydney Morning Herald and The Age on Saturday morning. "The idea that the Labor Party would have rejected this defence agreement with the US and UK is fanciful."

Scott Morrison suggests Labor may have leaked AUKUS information had it been briefed soonerThe Prime Minister denies that Australia broke with the Biden administration when it decided not to consult Labor about its momentous decision to scrap the French submarine program and unveil an ambitious new plan to build nuclear-powered submarines with the US and the UK. So, the Prime Minster were planning on walking out of the French subs deal... 5 months before.... 'five months before the AUKUS announcement in September last year.' You better believe it. I wouldn't trust Labor with a kid's lunch money. We know him, who in their right mind would want to vote for a blatant lier like Morrison! What an insult from the LNP towards the people of Australia

'Like adding kerosene to a fire': Labor attacks Scott Morrison's super home deposit planLabor housing spokesperson Jason Clare said the policy would drive up prices and hurt young Australians, after the former prime minister and super architect Paul Keating called it a 'full-frontal assault' on the system. A financial whiz-kid I definitely am not..on the contrary, I'm a math-dickhead..but I know enough to know that if innocent dickheads syphon their super & flood the market with MILLIONS of bucks in available cash, it will be a feeding-frenzy for the sharks..Please..dump Morrison.. $50k will be totally absorbed in higher house prices, and people will lose $360,000 of super over a 25 year period based on historical returns. A disgraceful dud policy Liberal have been hell bent on destroying Super for years. Why do you think they allowed ppl access their Super in 2020? It wasn't out of the 'goodness' of their hearts🙄. Jason Clare is 100% right here. But don't take my word for it, just ask the experts who say the same thing.
