‘Beyond parody': Albanese Labor government leaves Australian Defence Force ‘toothless'
Sky News host Andrew Bolt claims Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is leaving Australia's Defence Force 'toothless'.
'Let me show you something truly crazy, it is a brilliant example of what you do get from a defence force when it is headed by a prime minister like that,' Mr Bolt said.
'Albanese has stripped the Australian Defence Force to the bone to pay for nuclear submarines we won't start getting for another decade or more. He just won't top up its budget … three Chinese warships can circumnavigate Australia firing guns and we couldn't even put a frigate in the sea to follow them.'

‘Doing the right thing is condemned': Douglas Murray shames Democrats in LA
Author Douglas Murray condemns illegal immigrants in Los Angeles who are 'protecting foreign criminals' and 'assaulting American police officers', claiming there is no 'better boost' for US President Donald Trump's anti-immigration policy. Incredible scenes have emerged of arson and other destructive actions in the streets of Los Angeles, with people protesting Trump's immigration policy. 'The Democrats, when they decided not to police the border… and to encourage people in that include criminals," Mr Murray told Sky News host Rita Panahi. 'They still pretend that this is the empathetic, good thing to do, to encourage from the border onwards literal lawlessness, and that anyone, including federal agents who are trying to enforce the law, are the bad guys. 'Until we get past this era in which doing the wrong thing is celebrated and doing the right thing is condemned, we are going to continue to be, in all of our countries, in unbelievable trouble.'
