End AUKUS

AUKUS is a military agreement between Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States  with two “pillars”.
1.  The first pillar is a Federal Government commitment to spend $368 billion to purchase and construct 8 nuclear powered submarines to be part of the US nuclear submarine fleet surrounding  the People’s Republic of China.
2.  The second pillar to to collaborate with the Governments of UK and USA to “develop and provide joint advanced military capabilities” involving computer, missile and artificial intelligence technologies.

A widespread campaign is developing across Australia to  have the AUKUS pact dissolved completely.
