PRIME Minister Scott Morrison’s harsh rebuke of a self-serving United Nations bureaucracy should serve as a lesson for Australia’s hostile public sector. Mr Morrison this week reminded the UN it worked for its members and not for its own “processes, institutions and officials”.
TIME-tested political strategies were thrown into turmoil with the rise of the 24-hour news cycle and then all but decimated by disruptive social media – but PM Scott Morrison has found an ingenious fix. John Howard used the political “wedge” for more than a decade to great electoral success while his Liberal Party successor Tony Abbott mastered the “slogan”, which saw him sail into high office in 2013.
PRIME Minister Scott Morrison has outmanoeuvred China’s trade threats by securing alternate markets for discretionary items – strengthening Australia’s hand dealing with Beijing’s “structural” trade needs. In a move described as “smart”, the Prime Minister has made Australia a harder target for Beijing according to defence and security expert Michael Shoebridge.
ONE of Australia’s most experienced military Generals has backed Prime Minister Scott Morrison as capable of running – and winning – a “serious war”.
Retired Australian Army General Jim Molan AO DSC said this week the Australian Prime Minister displayed the type of leadership you’d expect in war time.
AUSTRALIA’S military build-up is on track to dwarf Germany, France and Britain as it responds to Chinese hostility in the Indo-Pacific region.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison last week announced a massive war chest taking annual military spending from this year’s US$35b up to US$61.2b by 2030.
This is approaching Russia’s current defence budget of US$61.6b a year.
CHINA has attempted to race shame Australia in its latest move to punish Prime Minister Scott Morrison for leading the push to expose its Wuhan virus cover-up.
With its vast arsenal of diplomatic revenge tactics, the Chinese communists have so far failed to silence Australia’s call for an independent inquiry into the origins of Coronavirus.
PRIME Minister Scott Morrison blasted journalists yesterday telling them to “get with it” after a blatant attempt to wedge him in a race baiting storm.
Australia’s mainstream media, which has been obsessed with 10th order issues since the invention of Twitter, provoked a furious lecture from the Prime Minister.
WHEN Tony Abbott’s government came to power just seven years ago, it promised to have Australia live within its means, to get back into the black, to free our children and grandchildren from the coming burden of massive debt.
It was a fear campaign with relevance to those who had worked, scrimped and saved. That debt – then around $175b – was promoted as a significant threat to Australia’s future generations, and when the Labor Government was thrashed in the election, it seemed that most voters must have shared the view.
ALMOST 60 per cent of Australians who support Left-leaning political Parties claim no religion, according to the lastest Newspoll.
Supporters of Leftist political Parties are typically young, female, non-religious and paid marginally less while similarly educated to centre-right supporters.
WITH the exception of a few senior ALP figures, the wider world has backed Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s refusal to crumble to Chinese demands despite its retaliatory sanctions. Although many Western nations have been on the receiving end of the Communist Party’s threats, Morrison has been one of a handful to push back – hard.
