I know we've had this discussion before but why do we even have a war footing submarine fleet? Apparently they do heaps of sig-int and stuff, but why do we even bother with torpedoes and poo poo on them?

LibertyCat posted:^^^ because we're an island and it's way better to sink ships before they drop an invasion force on our shore. Haven't you ever played Civ? You are adorable, you think Australia would trivially win or lose any war we ended up in with our neighbors irrespective of submarines.

LibertyCat posted:Who said it'd be trivial? Sorry I mistyped, it should have said "wouldn't" Any country we went to war with in the local area would either thoroughly trounce us, or we would wreck. Submarines wouldn't make a difference if say China or Indonesia decided to try and take over. Both of which are pretty unrealistic scenarios.

Negligent posted:Area denial at sea is a really good strategic tool for scenarios that aren't war. Your neighbours knowing that whenever they sail into international waters there's potentially a submarine there is useful if, for example, they are currently involved in sending fishing boats and coast guard ships to start poo poo with Vietnam and the Philippines. Do you have any more info or links on this kind of stuff. I really don't have an understanding of why Australia needs a submarine capacity (beyond intelligence work).

Bulk billing GPs are not doctors who make heaps of money and drive around in sports cars. That's surgeons and specialists. Failing to index bulk billing rates forces bulk billing practices to become charging practices, it's removal of bulk billing by stealth. The exact same thing that Howard did to the university sector by not indexing their funding.

The federal environment minister has argued in court that coal from Australia’s largest coalmine would have no “substantial” impact on climate change and as a result he did not need to consider whether it would affect the Great Barrier Reef. ... The minister’s reasoning was that whether the burning of the coal would make climate change worse depended on whether it would increase the total amount of coal burned globally. But he notes there are a “raft of factors” that could affect how much coal was burned globally, including whether the coal from the mine displaced other coal and whether it was dealt with within various national emissions targets. He concluded that there “was no requisite relationship between combustion emissions and increases in global temperature”. Further, the minister argued that since the net impact was “difficult to identify”, there was no need to impose conditions on the mine, such as that climate impacts would be offset. “Put simply, because any increase in net global greenhouse gas emissions was a matter of speculation, there was no need for or utility in the imposition of conditions.”

"Four Vietnamese asylum seekers forcibly returned to their country by Australia will appear in court on Thursday, facing up to seven years in jail for trying to flee. Four others have already been jailed for between two and three years for illegally leaving the country, despite written assurances from the Vietnamese government – according to the commander of Operation Sovereign Borders – that they would not be charged or punished for leaving. Last year two boatloads of Vietnamese asylum seekers were intercepted by Australian government vessels as they attempted to reach Australia. They underwent “enhanced screening” by Australian officials at sea, before being directly returned to Vietnam."
