‘If only these Liberals knew their history': NSW Liberal Party proposed primaries slammed

Sky News AU09-07-2025
Sky News host Peta Credlin discusses the NSW Liberal Party's move to emulate US-style primaries for candidacy selection.
'The push from a shell-shocked Liberal Party, to let anyone and everyone choose Liberal candidates, rather than the party itself,' Ms Credlin said.
'The Liberal Party should choose from a shortlist of candidates, and then all the members of the general public in that electorate get to choose … who will then become the endorsed Liberal candidate.
'No, it wouldn't because it would allow people who aren't committed enough to join the Liberal Party.
'If only these Liberals knew their history, they might actually get themselves out of opposition and into government.'

Australians should be ‘very afraid' of the Treasurer's economic roundtable

Sky News host Steve Price says Australians should all be 'very afraid' of what might come of next month's economic reform roundtable. Australia's ailing productivity will be the subject of the roundtable led by Treasurer Jim Chalmers next month where leaders across business, politics and unions will discuss the nation's poor growth. Economic and productivity reform was a lower priority during the Albanese government's first term, despite slow growth and the country sitting in a per capita recession.

Potential worsening of Australia-Israel relations as Albanese releases statement

Australia and Jewish Affairs Council's Joel Burnie comments on the Australia-Israel relationship, claiming Israel has a 'very close affinity with Australia' despite the Albanese government's recent condemnation. 'The good thing on that front is that the Israelis have had a very close affinity with Australia ever since its establishment,' Mr Burnie told Sky News host Danica De Giorgio. 'The relationship between Israel and Australia is far deeper than that; it's a friendship, it's a deep and warm relationship where Israelis love Australians, they love what Australia means to them.'

‘Emmanuel would know the difference': Brigitte Macron is a woman because ‘she says so'

Sky News host Rowan Dean comments on the Macron-Owens saga, mockingly claiming Brigitte Macron is a woman because 'she says so'. This comes as French President Emmanuel Macron sued influencer Candace Owens over assertions that Brigitte Macron is a biological male. 'On this show, we're always unafraid to tackle the most confronting questions of the day, especially when they highlight the hypocrisy of the left, and today's big question is a very simple one: Is Brigitte Macron a man?' Mr Dean said. 'I say a very simple one because it is an easy question to answer. No, Brigitte Macron, the wife of the French President Emmanuel Macron, is a woman. How do we know? Because Brigitte says so. 'And you would assume that, being a gallant and romantic Frenchman, Emmanuel would know the difference. 'Now, in case you don't know who Candace Owens is, she is a rather eccentric, albeit sometimes entertaining podcaster and conspiracy theorist with some seriously disgusting views about Jews who has a fixation that Brigitte Macron was born a boy and at some point transitioned.'
