Albanese urged to endorse landmark antisemitism report
Sky News host Sharri Markson has called on the Albanese government to 'do the right thing' and respond effectively to a landmark antisemitism report. 'Albanese today welcomed this report, said he'd engage with it, but he stopped short of endorsing it,' Ms Markson said. 'In fact, he didn't explicitly support a single recommendation, and he brushed off questions about what he'd commit to. 'When, prime minister will you finally do the right thing?'

Albanese meeting with Xi Jinping despite failing to secure meeting with Trump

'The pair in fact have never met, despite Trump winning the election on November 4th.'

Albanese ‘buries head in sand' as antisemitism runs rampant in Australia
Sky News host Sharri Markson discusses the 'weekend of horror' in Melbourne following an array of antisemitic attacks which took place in the city. 'This is the violent, racist country that we are now living in, that's increasingly unsafe for Jewish Australians,' Ms Markson said. "Albanese did not adopt a single one of those recommendations; perhaps he naively believed if he did nothing, if he buried his head in the sand, the problem would go away.'
