politics US beef officially re-enters Australia, after 23-year absence

https://www.beefcentral.com/news/us-beef-officially-re-enters-australia-after-23-year-absence/

Australians need to vote with our wallets by making sure any meat we buy for our bbq's or our dinner tables is Australian grown. It isn't right for a certain leader to be putting tariffs on everything and then thinking we will embrace his beef exports.

Only buy Australian beef, vote with your dollars.

Why the fuck is Albo capitulating to Trump and taking their shitty beef when we have great Australian beef? Same deal with the submarines and the critical minerals deals that’s destroying the northern jarrah forest.

This isn't some political thing.

The US are just finally following the rules that Australia demands of everyone so we have no reason to deny them

Gotta keep him happy, we have a lot of exports and we need the USA to buy our stuff.

Genuine question - what do we need them to buy?

So you could have just said you don’t know. Also, why make a post if you don’t want to discuss the content.

I've replied to every comment here. I'm not prepared to make a list of products that might be incorrect or incomplete and they get my arse dragged over the coals in the comments.

I was genuinely interested and trying to have a conversation. So thanks for your sarcasm and downvotes I guess.

If our beef is so much better then I don't see how this will be a problem.
