Albanese receives no clarity from China on military expansion or east coast aggression

Sky News AUa day ago
Former Army director general Retired Brigadier Ian Langford discusses a lack of explanation received from the Chinese government regarding recent maritime aggression.
'We really didn't achieve any acknowledgement from the Chinese, as it relates to things that concern us,' Mr Langford told Sky News host Peta Credlin.
'Some of the maritime aggression we saw off the east coast some months ago, we haven't had a clear explanation on the purpose around military expansion in the way we are seeing.
'The period we are moving into now demands more Australian statecraft, demands more expertise and more real agility into how we manage our economic and security relationships.'

‘As routine as breathing': TV host slams Welcome to Country ceremonies

'Our politicians gathered in Canberra today for ceremonies marking the start of the new parliamentary term,' Mr Macpherson said. 'In modern Australia, nothing officially starts without someone solemnly reminding us that the land we're on existed before we developed it. 'Ours is a country where 'Welcome to Country' has become as routine as breathing, and just as impossible to opt out of without social repercussions.'

‘Always nonsense': Labor's Medicare lies exposed in new reports

Sky News host Danica De Giorgio discusses Prime Minister Anthony Albanese winning the election on a 'big fat lie' around Medicare. 'It is virtually impossible to find a bulk-billing GP clinic these days and when you do manage to find one it is so hard to get in, or you are stuck in the waiting room with hundreds of others to be seen,' Ms De Giorgio said. 'Yet, as you all know, the PM spent most of his election campaign flapping about his Medicare card like it was his best friend and reviving the Mediscare campaign.'

'For her, to try and upstage an important occasion in Australia's democratic system, the opening address by the governor general. 'It shows a great disrespect for Australian institutions and Australian democratic norms.'
