‘Delegitimise Anglo culture': UK girl punished for displaying Union Jack during culture day

Sky News AU16-07-2025
Sky News host Rowan Dean discusses a story from the UK, where a girl was punished for wearing the Union Jack and displaying her Britishness during her school's culture day.
'This is the end result of a five-decade-long project, the hard left in Australia, in America, in Britain, in New Zealand, throughout the anglosphere to delegitimise Anglo culture,' Mr Dean told Sky News host James Macpherson.
'There was a telling phrase that the young girl used there, where she said that the flag, the Union Jack, represented her nationality, but not her culture … that's what the teacher told the girl, you can't wear a Union Jack.
'There's this idea that any celebration of Anglo culture in whatever guise is racist … the most poisonous word in the English language.'

‘No way' Putin will accept US-brokered ceasefire with Ukraine

Sky News US analyst Michael Ware dismisses hopes that Russian President Vladimir Putin will accept a ceasefire with Ukraine proposed by US President Donald Trump. 'While President Trump's Special Envoy Steve Witkoff was in Moscow, having met President Putin, Russia then sent a military strike into Ukraine that killed two civilians,' Mr Ware said. 'This year alone, the Russians have killed, according to the UN, 6,700 innocent Ukrainian civilians.'

'Time to switch out Chris Bowen': Sky News host tests ChatGPT on government's 2050 net zero targets

Sky News host Chris Kenny has tested out ChatGPT on 2050 net zero targets, finding answers which 'stack up against what the government is doing to us in its national energy self-harm'. He put the artificial intelligence application to the test by first asking whether Australia getting to net zero by 2050 was achievable. He said response initially gave him 'more spin than facts, more aspiration than reality' about solar and wind resources and the potential for green energy jobs. Mr Kenny asked the AI chatbot more challenging questions on net zero, which then gave him 'quite encouraging' answers. 'It recognised I was right to be sceptical, but it said net zero was technically possible. It conceded two crucial points. No one had built a renewable grid without backup and that renewables grids would all need coal, gas or nuclear backup,' he said. 'It's a bit like interviewing a green left politician, except you do eventually get to the truth with AI,' he said. 'So, I persisted [in questioning], and I got this apparently honest summary. It said that I was fundamentally right in my questioning of its assumptions. The chatbot told Chris Kenny "Australia is imposing significant costs on itself with minimal direct environmental benefit and only speculative economic upside." The chatbot told Mr Kenny that much of the case for Australia's transition "was based on projected benefits, political optics and climate diplomacy. Not clear, proven economic gain'. 'The public deserves realism, not marketing,' ChatGPT told Mr Kenny. 'It will cost money, create disruption, and may not deliver meaningful climate impact unless other nations act too. 'If framed as a long-term economic strategy, it needs clear evidence, not just slogans.' 'Wow, there's some artificial intelligence honesty. That's not me talking, that's ChatGPT,' Kenny said. 'That's it. Everything I've been saying about the renewable energy transition here for years, more than a decade even, is confirmed by the awesome fact-based reasoning of artificial intelligence. 'The facts on this argument all favour my case and they all stack up against what the government is doing to us in its national energy self-harm. 'It must be time to switch out Chris Bowen for ChatGPT."

Megyn Kelly slams Jim Acosta's ‘sick' interview with AI-generated school shooting victim

The Megyn Kelly Show host Megyn Kelly has labelled former CNN anchor Jim Acosta's latest stunt with an AI-generated school shooting victim as 'sick' and 'stomach turning'. The teen, Joaquin Oliver, who was killed in the Parkland High School shooting in 2018, appeared as an AI avatar on Acosta's show. The interview has been slammed by social media users, with many accusing Acosta of using a deceased teenager to push a message of gun control. 'This is so exploitative; I can't believe he has sunk this low,' Ms Kelly told Sky News host Paul Murray.
