IN A bombshell exposé, Premier Gladys Berejiklian’s leadership could be “sunk” if her actions as transport minister were made public.
In an article published on page one of The Australian newspaper on Tuesday it was inferred Ms Berejiklian’s successor to her transport portfolio, Andrew Constance, was in a position to undo the Premier with revelations from her time leading that department.
VICTORIA Premier Daniel Andrews told the enquiry into the hotel fiasco that he did not know who was responsible for the disastrous decision to hire a security firm to monitor the quarantine of overseas arrivals. Not only did Andrews dodge accountability, but for good measure he threw Health Minister Jenny Mikakos under a bus by shifting blame to her, causing her sacrificial resignation.
It’s time to take back our country. “If you want a vision of the future,” wrote Orwell, “imagine a boot stamping on a human face – forever.” Let us hope that any vision of 21st century Australia is not one of the masked DANSTAPO storming the home of that terrified, young pregnant mother, Zoe Buhler. Pinning her arms back and handcuffing her, they took her away. Her crime? Daring to propose a Freedom Day for Ballarat.
THE Berejiklian government remains teetering despite Nationals leader John Barilaro walking back plans to withdraw his parliamentary support. The Deputy Premier last week announced – then withdrew – plans to lead his entire Nationals team to the cross benches in response to the government’s latest Greens-inspired environmental planning policy – the so-called koala habitat protection plan.
NSW NATIONALS leader John Barilaro started it, by threatening to take his bucket and spade from the sandpit and go play on the cross benches. He made a thorough goose of himself on two counts: tittle-tattling to the public about matters that should have been sorted out behind closed doors and displaying his ignorance of constitutional conventions.
AFTER a nail-biting wait of 20 days, Sarah Caisip finally received approval from the Queensland government to enter Queensland so she could farewell her dying dad. Sarah’s dad had already passed away, the Queensland government having overlooked the fact that death does not recognise bureaucratic timeframes.
ANGER over NSW’s hard lurch leftwards has spilled into public view, with voters expressing disgust at the Berejiklian government’s Greens-inspired policy agenda. The government’s direction has become so unpalatable that its Nationals coalition partner has announced it would move to the cross bench en masse.
WHILE Australia’s educational performance plummets to its lowest since international rankings commenced, public schools have reintroduced radical gender theory into classrooms “by stealth”. Australian students were placed 29th in mathematics, 17th in science and 16th in reading in the latest Programme for International Assessment (PISA) rankings.
A SPECTRE is haunting the world – the Mussolini syndrome where the leader addresses the populace based on a cocktail of alien, fashionable dogmas, announcing decisions taken which will significantly change their lives.No longer needing a Palazzo Venezia balcony like Mussolini’s to speak from, leaders today do this through electronic devices now found everywhere.
NSW Environment Minister Matt Kean is on a collision course with the State’s powerful Parliamentary Development Committee which has warned renewable energy is incapable of meeting growth demands. Mr Kean, who hopes to reduce State carbon emissions by 35 per cent by 2030 and 100 per cent by 2050, is under pressure to back away from his pet project by the cross-Party committee findings.
