UK is too far, for the British even waving flags for U.S will get asthma, mostly they just "care" about HK democracy for the nostalgia...in SCS they can do almost nothing tangible for sure.
Australia also feel nothing to SCS because of no direct interest i think, the scenario is maybe show the alignment with US and indirectly show some inclination like join de drill or give US ships the supplement..

If they are smart they won't get involved. My crystal ball says it's another American Phuck-Up in the making.

We can obviously. You do know we have a base in Brunei and Diego Garcia as well which we share with the U.S . However, we dont really want to get involved in SCS dispute, since we dont really have much interests in it anyway. So we dont see the point of getting involved given that the U.S already has a large presence and a complete naval dominance of the region. So no point really for us to intervene whatsoever. We have much more economic interests in the region not military.
