MALCOLM Turnbull finally appears to have turned a Right-hand corner as Bill Shorten takes a disastrous Left-turn. Tomorrow’s Newspoll should indicate whether the public is paying attention, Piers Akerman writes.
LABOR leader Bill Shorten’s Budget-in-Reply speech flunked the pub test and the reality test. Too much never-never, too little credibility and the bloke who delivered it has too much shifty baggage, writes Piers Akerman.
THERE have been exemplary women leaders and there have been abysmal duds. Just being female — or male — doesn’t necessarily impute genius, writes Piers Akerman.
ALLOWING women to lead Anzac Day marches is such a virtue-signalling move it could have only been cooked up over kale and quinoa with Malcolm and Lucy Turnbull.
IN name and deeds, the engineer-general Sir John Monash is precisely the right person to invoke when seeking a solution to the existential energy crisis facing Australia, Piers Akerman writes.
IT’S a fair bet that a majority of Australians had never contemplated the practice of ball tampering before last week but most would have been aware of the notion of cheating, Piers Akerman writes.
IT IS unlikely the latest Newspoll will give Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull the popularity bump needed to turn the tide running against him, Piers Akerman writes.
THE threat to global security has never been greater since the end of the Cold War, but Donald Trump is rapidly proving to be the West’s best bet in the face of the unprecedented dangers we face, Piers Akerman writes.
DONALD Trump looks set to defy his critics yet again and leave them grovelling for excuses after agreeing to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and discuss nuclear disarmament, Piers Akerman writes.
HAMSTRUNG by his grave lack of judgment, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull doesn’t appear to recognise that it is time to replace his current Foreign Minister, Julie Bishop, with a serious person less obsessed with Instagram, Piers Akerman writes.
