It is in the interests of every country that touches the Pacific to deescalate the regional arms race and to oppose this kind of militarisation.
It is also long past time to join the push to ban nuclear weapons.

Show me a party that is against AUKUS and that’s the party I vote for. Sick of this!
If the support internally is so strong why are they so afraid of debate?
It’s because AUKUS, which is led and directed by the US, is a strategic surrender to Washington.
The truth is, AUKUS is about as patriotic as Pine Gap, no matter how hard Labor spins it.

'Legitimate criticism' of Israel is fine, internal governments docs say. It's unclear what this means
Documents obtained by Crikey paint an ambiguous picture of what counts as antisemitic in the government's eyes, as it continues to apply a controversial definition.

The Senate has backed our push for transparency in NACC appointments.
The Attorney-General must release all documentation on candidates, and the committee will interview them directly. A corruption watchdog needs to be chosen in the open (only Labor opposing this!)
