Agriculture Minister David Littleproud says “this is a time for federalism to shine” as the nation’s premiers come together today at the bidding of the Prime Minister to discuss potential border bubbles. “This is where we have the spotlight on our federalism to make sure that we can work together, above all we’re Australians and all I’m saying this is the time to prove it,” Mr Littleproud said.

” The Minister said decisions should be made keeping in mind that coronavirus infections were far higher in capital cities than in regional areas. “We can create bubbles, we can create avenues of commerce for regional and rural Australians continue to feed and clothe you,” he said. “This is why the Prime Minister has been very forward leaning in trying to bring these premiers together but ultimately they have the sovereign right under our federated system.

Australia would be ‘silly’ not to have nuclear power in the energy mix | Sky News AustraliaNew South Wales Deputy Premier John Barilaro says lifting the state’s ban on uranium mining will put pressure on the federal government to abolish its moratorium on nuclear energy.\n\nThe Berejiklian government has reportedly agreed to support NSW One Nation leader Mark Latham’s proposed bill to lift the ban on uranium mining in New South Wales.\n\nMr Barilaro said the position of the NSW Nationals has long been in support of uranium mining and nuclear energy, but the bill must be agreed upon in cabinet before it’s passed.\n\n“Uranium mining and nuclear energy should be part of Australia’s economic future let alone energy future,” the deputy premier told Sky News host Peta Credlin.\n\n“We should be using (Australia’s uranium resources) for our own use, and I’ll be campaigning strongly that the federal government lifts the ban on nuclear energy in this country.\n\n“We’d be silly as a nation not to consider it as part of our energy mix.”\n\nImage: Getty JohnBarilaroMP Didn't Australia sign something with India last year or the year before, building nuclear facilities ? 🤔 JohnBarilaroMP It still will not make an Economic Case for Nuclear.

It is 'absolute horse manure' to say Australians are all in this together | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Alan Jones says within the National Cabinet they clearly have no understanding of the difficulties being faced by people who must cross the border to keep business going, to keep their jobs or to get to doctors in order to stay alive. \n\nHe said everyone knows “we are short of medical experts in the bush” and now people cannot access experts across the border. \n\n“Of course, this border stuff is totally in breach of Section 92 of the Constitution, but presumably, no one is prepared to defend the Constitution'. \n\nMr Jones also spoke with Nationals MP Anne Webster about the issue of border closures. \n\nMs Webster said there is 'story after story of people who are suffering'. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia Its time these bureaucrats be investigated for the destruction of our country and livelihoods and be made accountable for the crimes they have committed in conjunction with Bill Gates and Fauci and WHO Storm Is About To Hit ⏰ You’ve really got some prize nut jobs on your channel.

Calls for the Australian government to purchase copyright to the Aboriginal flag | Sky News AustraliaSky News contributor Warren Mundine is calling upon the Australian government to buy copyright to the Aboriginal flag. \n\nThe Aboriginal flag will be missing from fields at this weekend's Indigenous round of the AFL because of a copyright dispute with WAM, a company which purchased a copyright license to the flag in 2018.\n\n'In 1901, 120 pound was paid to the person who designed (the Australian flag) and it became the property of the Australian government, why can’t we do that now?” Mr Mundine told Sky News host Peter Gleeson. \n\n“Why doesn’t the prime minister, and the minister of aboriginal affairs … sit down with Harold Thomas and sit down with WAM and just work out something?”\n\nMr Mundine said Harold Thomas received no money for designing the Aboriginal flag in 1971 and in the 1990’s received intellectual property and copyright of the design from the federal court.\n \nMr Thomas gave license to WAM in 2018. \n\n“Every time you buy a flag, royalties go with it, which goes back to Harold Thomas, I don’t have a problem with that,” he said. \n\n“I do have a problem with this demand (from WAM) now.\n\n“Surely we can come together again and sort this out and use a bit of common sense.”\n\n'(The Aboriginal flag) needs to be properly respected and rolled out because it has a unifying effect with us all when we see it.”\n\nImage: News Corp Australia nyunggai I have an idea.

NSW should not have to 'bear the brunt of hotel quarantine' | Sky News AustraliaLiberal Senator Andrew Bragg says the states and territories need to 'share the burden' of hotel quarantine for returned travellers.\n\nMr Bragg said hotel quarantine in NSW was at a bit of a “choke point” with approximately 350 people held in mandatory isolation each day.\n\n“One of the most successful components of our strategy to beat the coronavirus has been closing international borders,” the Senator acknowledged.\n\n“We do need to see the states providing more capacity on hotel quarantine so we can have higher entrance into Australia”.\n\nHis comments responded to a push to open international borders and allow Australians to travel overseas at their own risk with hotel quarantine upon return.\n\nIn contrast, Labor MP Anika Wells said, “we’ve always got to balance … public health and safety with the best of the medical advice and the best industry advice.”\n\n“If Qantas is working on the basis that international borders won’t open until mid-next year, then that’s what we should be focusing on,' she said.\n\nImage: AP ajamesbragg Like sharing cruise ship passengers by air?

‘Erosion of civil liberties’ must not become permanent reality | Sky News AustraliaLiberal Senator Amanda Stoker says the cooperative Australian people have accommodated an “erosion of civil liberties” in the last few months but it must not become a permanent reality.\n\nThe Melbourne metropolitan area and the Mitchell Shire have been in stage four lockdown now for close to one month and are expected to last for a total of six weeks, while the city has also been suffering under an 8PM curfew.\n\nMeanwhile, states such as Queensland, Western Australia, and South Australia continue to impose strong border closures which is adversely affecting border communities and their economies.\n\n“There’s a real argument that we need to have maximum, particularly economic, freedoms here,” Ms Stoker told Sky News host Alan Jones.\n\n“There’s a real concern here that the erosion of civil liberties, that the very cooperative Australian people have accommodated over recent weeks and months, must not lead to a permanent erosion of those liberties.”\n\nImage: Getty stoker_aj These articles are so short and safe.
