“There is going to be increased security around the court, not just the Secret Service that always follows the president but local police
as well with a protest planned by Marjorie Taylor Greene, the representative from Georgia for the Republicans and the House,” Ms Nielsen said.

Governments ‘hideously unprepared’ for safeguard mechanism ‘mode shift’Pacific National CEO Paul Scurrah says rail has been the “most environmentally friendly” and safe way to haul goods but the safeguard mechanism will hit the railway freight systems. “For many years now, everybody knows that rail has been the most environmentally friendly and safe way to haul goods, particularly between capital cities, and is even more important now with the climate action required,” Mr Scurrah told Sky News Business Editor Ross Greenwood. “What we see though is governments have been hideously unprepared for this mode shift … driven by the unlevel playing field between rail and the trucking industry and what this now means is that there’s a further impost on rail operators to … reduce our carbon emissions … the safeguard mechanism as it currently stands actually doesn’t help.”

Menzie’s ‘Liberal values’ can bridge divide between ‘wealthy’ and ‘aspirational’ suburbsReconnecting with the way the “Liberal values of Menzies serve both the urban and the outer suburban” communities, can bridge the divide between the different places and ways of life, says Sky News host Amanda Stoker. Ms Stoker’s comments come after the Coalition lost the Aston by-election. “This is not so much a tale of leadership as it is a tale of two Australias – those people living in the wealthy inner cities and those who are in the aspirational outer suburbs,” she said. “Labor and the Coalition believe in fundamentally different things for your family and for this nation – but if the Coalition just play Labor lite, you can't blame voters for ultimately going for the real thing.”

Pauline Hanson’s One Nation party must ‘take action’ over Mark Latham’s ‘homophobic’ tweetIndependent MP Alex Greenwich says Pauline Hanson’s One Nation party which Mark Latham represents needs to “take action” if Ms Hanson is “so outraged” by the comments made on Twitter by Mr Latham. “The party that Mr Latham represents in upper house is named after Pauline Hanson, surely if she is so outraged and disgusted by his vile homophobic remarks, she’s going to need to take action to protect her own name,” Mr Greenwich told Sky News Australia. “Mr Latham probably needs to work out whether the New South Wales upper house is an appropriate workplace for him … I hope he takes time to reflect on his position. “The New South Wales parliament should be a place where we work together, have robust debate and deliver on outcomes for the people … not a place where we engage in personalised homophobic sexualised attacks on one another.”

Alex Greenwich responds to Mark Latham’s ‘homophobic tweet’ in exclusive interviewIndependent MP Alex Greenwich says he cannot “even begin to understand” what motivated Mark Latham’s “homophobic” and “sexualised” comments about a colleague. “I can’t even begin to understand Mr Latham, what motivates someone to say something in such a homophobic sexualised way about a colleague … although we disagree all the time we’ve always managed to have a fairly robust and respectful dialogue with each other, so I’m not sure what has happened there,” Mr Greenwich told Sky News Australia. “It’s important we sideline Mr Latham … we need to call it out and obviously look at what actions we can take to make sure he’s not able to continue to make these attacks on other people.”
