Liberals attempt to appeal to both sides on energy policy ‘wasn't meaningful'

Sky News AU12-05-2025

Former Labor senator Stephen Conroy says he was 'a little bit cynical' about the nuclear policy announcement.
Mr Conroy told Sky News host Andrew Bolt that they needed to not drive the left and Teal seats 'further away' from themselves.
'So they had to say, 'well we're still committed to Net Zero by 2050', but at the same time they needed to keep the National Party in the card.
'It wasn't meaningful.'

Peta Credlin exposes ‘double standards' following Hillel Fuld's ban from Australia

Sky News host Peta Credlin says Australia as a nation must face up to its 'double standards' in dealing with Jews and Muslims. Israeli influencer Hillel Fuld has broken his silence after having his visa cancelled by the Albanese government, hitting out at the "ridiculous excuse" Labor used to deny him entry to Australia. 'Yet no action has been taken against numerous anti-semitic hate preachers despite them routinely calling for the slaughter of Jews and the extinction of Israel,' Ms Credlin said. 'The Albanese government wants to say it's even-handed, and that it's just as against antisemitism as it is against Islamophobia. Well, how come its votes at the United Nations all seem to be against Israel, and its actions on visas all seem to target the friends of Israel?'

VIC Labor government falls through $250 million promise of a high speed express bus way

Institute of Public Affairs' Colleen Harkin says the Labor government spending $250 million on a high-speed express busway is an 'extreme waste of taxpayers' money'. Despite the high-speed promise, Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan says the journey from Doncaster to Melbourne will take even longer, with instead of 100 km speed limits, it might be down to 60 km. 'It's like a Monty Python episode,' Ms Harkin told Sky News host Rita Panahi. 'It's just a crazy situation.'

UN youth branch slams QLD government for impact of ‘Adult Crime, Adult Time' on youth

Institute of Public Affairs Colleen Harkin discusses the United Nations' youth branch saying young Queenslanders cannot have a night out as they are terrified by the 'Adult Crime, Adult Time' youth crime crackdown. 'People have a right to feel safe when they go out,' Ms Harkin told Sky News host Rita Panahi. 'I don't know what these youth people think that they do that they can't just go out and have a good time unless they break the law. 'It's an absurd proposition to say that they're being targeted.'
