| The former Coalition government’s failure to set more ambitious climate change targets hurt Australia’s standing in the Pacific, senior Liberal Simon Birmingham has conceded.
“What’s clear to me from the few days that I’ve had from engagement with Pacific leaders ... is that it is critical for us to listen carefully and attentively to our Pacific partners, and not just to listen, but to ensure that we act in concert with them,” Senator Birmingham said at a joint news conference with Senator Wong and Palau’s President Surangel Whipps jnr.
Former prime minister Scott Morrison argued that his government did not need to set a higher target because Australia was probably going to hit 35 per cent anyway. , and then we say the same things at home as we say here, is equally critical in that regard,” he said.

Labor’s foreign policy ‘transgression’ is their climate change ‘alarmism’Labor’s only foreign policy transgressions have been their “continuing alarmism” and “open-ended commitments on climate change”, says Sky News host Chris Kenny. Foreign Minister Penny Wong, while in Vanuatu to sign a security pact, described climate change as an “existential issue” about 'culture and land and sea, and safety and security”. “Now this is just indulgent, the Pacific Islands are not being swamped by rising oceans, they are not under threat from climate change, the island areas are actually increasing, according to the most recent studies,” Mr Kenny said. “And the climate alarmism is really just a shakedown for more aid, we all know that, even though diplomacy demands a more subtle approach. “Look, we expect climate overreach from Labor, but the problem is the uber woke (Simon) Birmingham – he chimes in, with climate rhetoric to match Labor’s.” It is an acceptance of the science. Just as most other political parties, which 96% of Australian voted for, also accept. It is only the conspiracy theorists like Sky News and their sheeple now don't accept the science. Sadly we know how dangerous conspiracy theorists can be. Honestly what would Lemons 🍋 Wong know about CC all she does is splash tax payers cash 💵 on the shifty Pacific Islanders !
