We already train/serve together as ANZACs, however, as Helen Clarke is as similar in her political ideologies to John Howard's as cricket is to rugby, then I would say you are on a hiding to nothing trying to promote jointery of marine forces. I'd also suggest the numbers would be closer to 90-10 in favour of us Skips.

 

If they are ggod little sheep shaggers then we may let them deploy on our upcoming amphibs, but only if they promise to upgrade their two Anzac frigates.

 

Something about hell freezing over...

 

 

Do they have the enough sealift and amphibious vehicles to land at least a brigade on a hostile shore?  If not, why bother?
