Disruptor for business/economic nuisance.

Might make sense if the "accused" regime didn't have the largest proportion of it's market overseas ... I know they claim not to have been particularly affected but that's the same propaganda as the attempt to cover-up the fact that either (a) they're an incompetent bunch of buffoons that can't safely play with their toys without said toys escaping or (b) too obsessed with 3-ways with sniffly bats & coughing pangolins.

Because no doubt we import the lube as well, and that's stuck out at sea somewhere when the probe goes in

I think you have hit the nail on the head there.
Every Aus CEO who ever closed down a plant here should be put on a slow boat to china but without enough fuel, along with the pollies who allowed it to happen.
