PRIME Minister Scott Morrison has told Left-wing councils not to cancel Australia Day celebrations under the guise of COVID-19 restrictions. With increasing numbers of councils abandoning January 26 events, the prime minister has cautioned them not to politicise the national day.
WATERED down laws dealing with drug use – along with the threat of a new carbon tax – lie in store for NSW citizens if senior members of its Coalition government have their way.With NSW debt skyrocketing and its AAA credit rating downgraded this week, the Berejiklian government appears side tracked with implementing Greens Party policy.
NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has intervened to force radical energy policy into law – against the wishes of voters and the advice of experts.
Her demands to rush through NSW Energy Minister Matt Kean’s 100 per cent renewables “roadmap” – without first releasing cost modelling – succeeded last night with the backing of Labor and The Greens.
WHILE the muddying of NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian’s public image was a surprise to many, it was far from a shock to close observers. The premier has been confounding people who know her – or thought they did – for some time.
NSW cross bench MPs have vowed to reject all legislation while ever a “compromised” Gladys Berejiklian continues to lead the State government. Bombshell revelations this week revealed a secret personal relationship between the Premier and a disgraced former Liberal MP facing corruption allegations.
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.
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.
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.
NSW National MPs are preparing to walk away from an increasingly radical Berejiklian government as it continues to unleash over-the-top environmental policies onto the State. The latest Greens-inspired policy, called the Koala Habitat Protection State Environmental Planning Policy, has up to six National MPs ready to quit the Coalition and sit on the cross benches.
