UTS Business School’s _warrenhogan Warren Hogan says the focus of October’s federal budget has got to be on how to get the economy into the recovery mode.

UTS Business School’s Warren Hogan says the focus of October’s federal budget has got to be on how to get the economy into the recovery mode. “And that’s about how to get JobKeeper out and finish with that in March,” Mr Hogan told Sky News. “How to get the bank moratorium over but not have the economy weaken.

” The Morrison government will deliver its budget in the first week of October, which usually gets released in May but was pushed back due to the coronavirus. “There’s a lot of challenges there, so they may have to look at short term programs like the UK used, the subsidising of lunches and dinners in London,” he said. “Who knows what they will come up with, but they have still got to provide stimulus for the economy in a targeted and sharp way.

Barilaro under pressure to resign | Sky News AustraliaNew South Wales Deputy Premier John Barilaro says he is confident in his position despite facing pressure to resign after a failed coup to overturn a Liberal party policy on koala conservation last week. \n\nTransport Minister Andrew Constance was among several Liberal Ministers who were unhappy with Mr Barilaro’s actions, and said it would be difficult to work with the Nationals if he remained leader. \n\nPolice Minister David Elliot also said Mr Barilaro’s leadership was untenable and he needed to vacate the position. \n\nNSW Deputy Nationals Leader Bronnie Taylor, however, backed Mr Barilaro on Friday, saying he had the support of the Nationals party room. \n\nThe Deputy Premier stated he would continue to work in Cabinet and was prepared to be as vocal as always.\n\nOpposition Leader Jodi McKay pushed for his resignation over the matter saying via Twitter the Nationals and Liberals were “at each other’s throats” and “NSW deserves a stable Government”.\n\nLabor is set to move a vote of no confidence against the government on Tuesday. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia JohnBarilaroMP For God's sake man.

Border politics continue: Northern Territory opens its border 'weeks after election' | Sky News AustraliaSky news host Paul Murray says a perfect example of borders being used for politics comes from the Northern Territory which has announced it will open its border to New South Wales, just two weeks after the territory election. \n\nMr Murray said in the lead up to the election, the sales pitch of the Northern Territory Chief Minister Michael Gunner was “vote for me, save lives”.\n\n“Before the election, keep them out,” Mr Murray said. \n\n“Two weeks after, where there had been no change actually in the number of cases, now people can come in, and they can come in from Sydney.”\n\nImage: News Corp Australia Time to refocus.

Australia is handing over its privacy 'in the name of security' | Sky News AustraliaPsychiatrist Dr Tanveer Ahmed says the notion of privacy has changed in Australia as, in the name of security, increasingly extreme forms of monitoring are being allowed. \n\n“Drones now patrol the city in Melbourne patrolling social distancing protocols,” Mr Ahmed said. \n\n“The Covid safe app monitors our movements.\n\n“Our internet behaviour already produces gigabytes of data for commercial use for the likes of our Silicon Valley overlords- Google, Facebook, Amazon etc.”\n\nMr Ahmed said Sydney has about 60 thousand surveillance cameras and was only a step away from incorporating facial recognition systems. \n\n“In the name of security, we've allowed all types of monitoring that civil liberty types are up in arms about,” he said. \n\n“Every new technological, legal, and cultural development raises concerns about the death of privacy. \n\n“No one wants us to be like China, but authoritarianism is on the march in even the places we consider bastions of freedom. \n\n“Privacy is central to liberty. \n\n“But arguably, privacy is also a privilege. \n\n“Do we really have a right to privacy and how do we draw up the limits?”\n\nImage: Getty IDONOTCONSENT TakeAustraliaBack info_libertes La!!

'Premier Palaszczuk, you are not the victim': Murray | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Paul Murray says Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk on Friday spoke like a bank teller who’s talking to a customer about a policy they can’t change, not like a premier who’s in charge of the entire executive power of the state of Queensland. \n\nQueensland resident Sarah Caisip, from the ACT, wasn't granted exemption from quarantine to attend her father's funeral in Queensland. \n\nPrime Minister Scott Morrison contacted the premier to seek an exemption out of hotel quarantine for the young woman who would otherwise miss out on her father’s funeral. \n\nThe Queensland premier, however, entered Queensland parliament later on Thursday and declared that she “will not be bullied nor will I be intimidated by the prime minister”. \n\nOn Friday, Ms Palaszczuk said “Let me make it very clear, I don’t make those decisions.”\n\nThe premier insisted the decision to forbid Sarah from attending her Father's funeral was made by Queensland Chief Health Officer Dr Jeannette Young. \n\n“It’s rubbish – I love this garbage where 'I’m single handedly the most powerful person in the state, but I’m also a victim' – it’s rubbish,” Mr Murray said. \n\n“Premier, you’re not the victim.”\n\nImage: News Corp Australia “State Premiers” have power & politically close all borders that hurt our people at home who also will have to pay for big lost economy at least 10 years. IF Premiers have power to close all airports there would be NO CAPS issued but NO ONE STRANDED OVERSEAS can go home anyway. However; the caps & border closures are ineffective strategy & wrong action that extensively & politically implemented on people at home & Aussies stranded overseas too long. We’re people, not Wuhan virus. Please don’t feel bad then treat us worse. Many are madly crazy enough. Has he listened to our deputy PM it beetrooter

Biden will mark a return to Obama’s ‘regional war-creating’ policies | Sky News AustraliaSky News host James Morrow says Americans should contrast President Donald Trump’s peace-seeking international affairs with Joe Biden’s approach which would represent a return to Obama’s “regional war-creating foreign policy”.\n\n“The choice is now between someone who’s getting peace deals signed, and someone who doesn’t even understand the difference between the Arab world and Iran,” he said.\n\nMr Morrow said back when President Trump first entered into office, the foreign policy doomsayers were predicting a disastrous Trump foreign policy platform.\n\n“Yet four years on, the world hasn’t been obliterated in a nuclear holocaust. The US hasn’t gone charging into nation after nation, starting stupid wars and destabilising the Middle East,” he said.\n\nAfter brokering a historic peace deal between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, President Trump has been able to bring Bahrain to the table with the Arab nation signing its own deal with Israel.\n\n“Trump’s foreign policy has not only been a direct refutation of Obama’s foreign policy, it has been its undoing.\n\n“None of this outbreak of peace would be possible without Trump’s unwinding of Obama’s insane deal with Iran.”\n\nImage: AP realDonaldTrump JoeBiden BarackObama realDonaldTrump JoeBiden BarackObama realDonaldTrump JoeBiden BarackObama
