Gallo_Ways Payne has a long way to go before reaching the same level of Paul Keating, best she remains silent!

Gallo_Ways Such a lightweight Payne.

Gallo_Ways She ‘hit back’ …sure.

Gallo_Ways No Keating's right about Australia using old Anglosphere instead of Asiasphere: ASEAN, India, Japan, Indonesia, Phillipines, etc. block against China. China's aggression 2 extend claims in air, land & sea rights in South China Sea, around Taiwan, with belt & road initiatives 2!!

Gallo_Ways The Australian people get it right once more at elections. It’s now quite a while since we collectively determined that Keating was past his ‘use by’ date

Gallo_Ways He is absolutely correct. Your colonialism just does not know when history ended. You roam around proxy procuring foreign lands by claiming to be best friends, buyout telecoms so China does not buy in, build military bases, so China can not, sabotage China's covid efforts...&c

Gallo_Ways She’s put Australia out in front on the attack on China: screwed our trade and now our national security. A short time ago we we about to ride the Chinese boom and now we’re looking at getting crushed by it.

Gallo_Ways So what if we are anyway? Sounds good to me 🤷‍♀️
