| No it's not too early. We know the French deal was absolutely crappy to begin. Follow the money. Christopher Pyne brokered this $50Bn deal to get re-elected (some boatbuilding would happen in SA) which blew out to $90Bn and rising. Pyne immediately retired (got his pollie-perks-for-life golden ticket stamped) and then immediately became "employed" as a consult with the people profiting massively from this twisted deal against the public interest. Pyne followed the same slimy playbook as Andrew Robb (4) who sneakily slipped the 99-year Darwin Port dodgy deal across the line, and then he got a free $880k "job" with them the day he left parliament shortly thereafter. Borderline treasonous behavior is rife with our political elite (both sides stink badly) https://www.macrobusiness.com.au/2016/04/would-you-employ-ch... https://www.macrobusiness.com.au/2019/07/pyne-poisons-ey/ https://www.macrobusiness.com.au/2020/01/audit-office-torped...
