Premier Andrews 'rebuked by federal Labor' for Vic-China investment deal | Sky News AustraliaMedia Commentator Karalee Katsambanis says the fact “Daniel Andrews has been rebuked by federal Labor” should “raise alarm bells and red flags”. \n\nVictoria is expected to officially engage in the controversial $24.5 billion infrastructure program with China later this year, which is in direct contradiction to the federal government's public approach to the Belt and Roads initiative.\n\nMs Katsambanis said Nations including the United Kingdom and the United States have issued warnings against signing on to China’s Belt and Roads Initiative.\n\nWhy isn’t there a federal power “to stop Daniel Andrews from doing this to the state of Victoria,” she asked. \n\nSky News host Gary Hardgrave drew a comparison between Hong Kong and the state of Victoria suggesting both were being compromised by the Communist regime. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia Karalee K and her husband r pathetic Curious isn't it that this wave of Sinophobia mainly focuses on Daniel Andrews rather than the huge Australian companies like BHP that sell them huge amounts of resources. Nor does it explain what is wrong with one belt and road.

Vic work-from-home order a ‘slap in the face’ for business | Sky News AustraliaPremier Daniel Andrews’ decision to enforce a work-from-home order on the Victorian business sector was “completely disingenuous,” according to LNP MP Jon Krause. \n\nVictoria will introduce a public health order on Monday which will prohibit people from returning to their workplace if they have been working from home throughout the coronavirus crisis. \n\nPremier Daniel Andrews announced businesses would face hefty fines for breaching the order as health authorities warned the risk of a second wave was too great to allow people to return to work.\n\nMr Krause said Mr Andrews “has enjoyed the extra power that has come with this health crisis” and his collaboration with China over the Belt and Road initiative may have given him the opportunity to “learn from the socialist masters in Beijing about how to control the economy and the population”.\n\nTime, money and human resources have been invested by the private sector to ensure businesses could continue to function throughout the coronavirus-imposed lockdown.\n\nMr Krause said, “I think it is a bit of a slap in the face” for all those businesses who have done the “right thing”.\n Stop quoting the opinions of your preferred politicians and start reporting actual news I thought they were listening to the experts? Fauci says this... after listening to the train driver talking about recirculated air on the carriages on tonights news... I'm with Dan

Twitter fact-checking President Trump indicative of a 'Left bias' | Sky News AustraliaTwitter’s decision to fact check a Tweet by President Trump on mail-in ballots has sparked controversy regarding the supposed regulation of free speech on online platforms which Sky News host Gary Hardgrave says is “extraordinary and very scary”. \n\nDonald Trump has threatened to “strongly regulate or close down” social media platforms after Twitter placed a warning label below one of the president’s tweets concerning mail-in balloting. \n\nTwitter subsequently defended their warning label, saying “these Tweets contain potentially misleading information about voting processes and have been labelled to provide additional context around mail-in ballots”.\n\nMr Hardgrave pointed out while Twitter is a “platform and not a publisher,” their recent actions have seen the company take on an editorial role. \n\nLNP MP Jon Krause said Twitter was “an echo chamber for the Left” which was “unreflective of the mainstream opinion in Australia” and was best “turned off”.\n\nImage: AP Sky after dark mouthpiece is scared shitless by facts, reckons they're part of the left wing agenda. You guys need to go home now, you've had enough. Trump's EO does not have anything to do with free speech... It has to do with Twitter not being liable for it's content because it is a digital message board, not a publisher. But by inserting their opinion on people's tweets, they are now no longer neutral and therefor liable. What's scary is a President making false claims about postal ballots. The only reason he is anti postal votes is that he knows that the higher the voter participation rate the greater the risk to the Republican Party of losing an election.

Morrison’s National Cabinet announcement ‘an admission our federation needs fixing’ | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Peta Credlin says Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s Friday announcement that a so-called National Cabinet process will become permanent “is a welcome admission that our federation needs fixing”. \n\nMs Credlin said “the only time our federation seems to work, is when the Commonwealth is spending even more money to enable the states to do the job they're supposed to do anyway”. \n\nOn Friday Mr Morrison announced the Council of Australian Governments will be replaced by a completely new system based on the success of the National Cabinet formed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.\n\n“COAG is no more,” Mr Morrison said at a media conference in Canberra.\n\n“We've agreed on the new structure, and we think that will ensure, for Australians, they'll get better government, more focused government, at both a state and a federal level.”\n\nMs Credlin said the prime minister seems “determined” to end “the blame-game” by “getting the Commonwealth and the states to working even more closely together”. \n\n“If entrenching this National Cabinet process makes premiers more accountable, and if it subjects the states to more scrutiny, it's got my support,” she said. \n \n“But if it means that even less gets done, at any level of government, unless all levels of government agree, it will make the problems worse, not better”. \n\nImage: Getty ScottMorrisonMP President has said Republic of Queensland accept the invitation from the Australian Prime Minister to continue to be involved in their National Cabinet, as a neutral observer.
