So far as i can tell there are two women who are Australian/British dual nationals currnetly jailed in Iran. One was motoring through Asia with her Australian partner and was possibly initially detained over a drone offence. The other appears to have been travelling or working alone and is reported to be on a spying charge.
Both are as much British as Australian, are entitled to protection from either and could have a reasonable expectation that Canberra and London would work together.
Having said that if release might be conditional on a prisoner swap with Australia then Canberra might drive process.
The idea that either are 'nothing to do with us' is nonsense.
