ONLY FRAN: Think NDIS is wasting taxpayer dollars? Meet AUKUS

June 12, 2026·17 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

This week Jan looks at the mammoth trilateral security pact known as AUKUS and asks how much are those submarines costing us again? Be warned, there’s not a clear answer to that question because even those in charge don't really know. Let’s just say hundreds of billions of dollars for deliverables that just keep changing??  That’s a lot of tax payer dollars at stake - not to mention the billions of dollars we’ve already thrown away on quite literally nothing. You’d think that would incense the media as much as other government spending but not so.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
