There are now three “weakest links” who are “killing” the Labor government, according to Sky News host Andrew Bolt. Mr Bolt said one of them – who's looking like the “most incompetent of the lot” – is Transport Minister Catherine King as the government faces criticism over its decision to block Qatar Airways’ bid for extra flights. “King so far has offered about six main excuses, including ones that she used to say weren’t excuses, and others that make no sense at all,” Mr Bolt said. “The whole thing stinks of incompetence and shiftiness.”
