EDITORIAL: Should the Liberals bow to Nationals net zero pressure, Ley’s leadership strife may be alleviated - temporarily.

EDITORIAL: Donald Trump couldn’t have dreamed up a better foil for his MAGA faithful to concentrate their ire upon if he tried. 

EDITORIAL: The pressure should be on Treasurer Jim Chalmers to help the RBA tamp down inflation. Unfortunately, with the Coalition tearing itself apart, there is little chance of any pushback inside Parliament.

EDITORIAL: While a certain degree of tumult is to be expected at this point, it is in the interests of the Coalition — and Australians — for the parties to sort themselves out as soon as possible.

EDITORIAL: News of Trump and Xi’s ‘12-out-10’ meeting will come as a relief to Australia, which feared being caught in the middle between its closest security partner and its No. 1 trading partner.

EDITORIAL: The Albanese Government wants to introduce yet more layers of bureaucracy and red tape that our mining industry does not need.

EDITORIAL: By sitting back, letting US President Donald Trump take the lead and having a laugh at Kevin Rudd’s expense, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese played his role perfectly. 

EDITORIAL: It’s in the national interest that this meeting goes well, but coming off as toadying would be a disaster for Mr Albanese’s personal popularity at home.

EDITORIAL: When our PM moved to recognise Palestine he had no roadmap to guide the transition of power to a legitimate authority.  All he had was a plan to humiliate our longstanding ally in Israel.
