EDITORIAL: You can be guaranteed that whatever outcomes emerge from this week’s reform roundtable, they will be markedly less significant than the time and energy expended talking about it in the lead-up. 

EDITORIAL: Anthony Albanese’s statehood move is driving a wedge between Australia and the country’s number one security guarantor, the US.

EDITORIAL: By switching allegiances away from our old ally Israel and coming out in support of Palestinian recognition now, Mr Albanese is picking a side. 

EDITORIAL: Hamas’ leaders have praised Anthony Albanese’s recognition plot, but it only makes dislodging the terrorist group’s cancerous presence within Palestinian life more difficult.

EDITORIAL: Australians are sick of bloodshed and want the war in Gaza to end, but recognition now will only prolong conflict. 

EDITORIAL: The idea that Hamas will give up their ambitions is pure fantasy. Hamas has no intention of ever laying down its arms.

EDITORIAL: A woman who celebrates the murder of Jews was issued with a visa to our nation. What greater threat is there to our social cohesion than that?

EDITORIAL: The next roundtable may be a Labor-led talkfest, but done right, it could be a powerful tool in taking the national temperature and informing reform efforts. 

EDITORIAL: The Productivity Commission’s copyright carve-out proposal would serve AI first, opening the floodgates for big tech companies to thieve creative content.

EDITORIAL: The new frigates will counter growing aggression from China. Amidst so much global conflict, Australia’s partnership with Japan brings a reminder that peace is possible.

EDITORIAL: Jim Chalmers’ desire to ‘build consensus’ before implementing any major economic reform is a near-impossible task.

EDITORIAL: While the Albanese Government has earned the right to relish this victory, there are signs this trade turmoil isn’t over yet. 

EDITORIAL: Australians are still in the dark as to what Labor’s plan is to deal with the tariff threat. It’s time for Jim Chalmers and Anthony Albanese to work on cutting a deal.

EDITORIAL: Social media isn’t inherently bad. The problem is harmful content and online predators. The Government should focus its efforts on removing those dangers, instead of children. 

EDITORIAL: Labor decided the best way to deal with Donald Trump’s trade tempest was to batten down the hatches and let it roll over. So much for that approach.
