'We need a new model of agreement … that we agree to live with difference.'
Mr Kurti claims a 'willingness to tolerate difference is eroding' in Australia.

PM pressed to tackle cost of living while balancing global role
Former Labor councillor Linda Scott defends the prime minister's promise to keep a sharp focus on easing cost of living pressures at home while also navigating Australia's international responsibilities. "Labor just won an election with a whole suite of policies about what they're going to do," Ms Scott said. "They're rolling it out, they've already done student debt relief, they've reduced the costs of medicines. "They're also recognising that millions of Australians are distressed about the fact that we are seeing images every night on the news of children starving ... this is a clear human rights crisis that Australia cant ignore."

‘Worst case of FOMO': Sky News host torches PM for ‘naive' Palestine decision

'Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas is about as believable as Anthony Albanese – but not nearly as naive.'
