Waste of effort, innit? Risk of backfire effects, even

Yes, guess Hockey still supports Trump? However, Rudd’s spend is still chicken feed compared to rent allowances &/or owning properties for personnel, and what goes on at some missions including the Austrade QUANGO.

In the noughties on the latter there was expansion, in one place extra budget of $250K+ and region, then shut down….as did the (host) Mission soon after (much of whose work or mission has been supplanted by digital)

“The Barry McGuire Award”?
Is there any other species on the planet with the capacity and propensity for self-destruction concentrated in so few hands – while taking everything else with it?

“Rarely in the field of human endeavour has so little been owed to so few for so much trouble.”

They used to do a double act on the ABC breakfast show in the early noughties. They even did Kokoda together. Now they have both been Ambassadors to the USA. You can bet they are working together on all sorts of things and that would include the 2 mentioned knees ups. They are both resident in the USA at the moment. Hockey is slurping at the AUKUS trough, Rudd will be in there somewhere.
