The United Kingdom and Australia elevated their defence ties to “NATO level” with a new agreement in Canberra on March 21. The UK’s defence minister said it was extraordinary that the “UK and Australia didn’t already have a defence cooperation treaty in place.”The deal established a legal framework to host troops & share military intelligence between the two nations.

Australian unions are mounting fierce resistance against plans for a new submarine base in Port Kembla. Watch the video to find out more.
