This government is all feathers and no meat when it comes to national security.

The Prime Minister and the Deputy Prime Minister have let us down again, taking credit for something that we had no involvement in.

Not only did we fail to send a warship to the Red Sea, we also had no part in the strikes.

Now we find out that the promised ADF personnel haven’t even made it to theatre yet.

Labor continues to prove that they can’t be trusted when it comes to national security.
