Australian cricket captain Pat Cummins has also expressed concern about a partnership with Alinta Energy. “I’m sure they use one of their products on a daily basis, so it’s just fraught with danger, all this nonsense,” Mr Newman told Sky News host Chris Kenny. “The world we live in is being run by patronising and pompous, arrogant people who have no idea really what they’re on about, and make the rest of the people who enjoy life as it is … make it a nightmare.”

Prince William could ‘open himself up’ to criticism from the ‘green lobby’ITV News Royal Editor Chris Ship says Prince William is campaigning 'more and more' on environmental matters and might open himself up to some criticism from the 'green lobby' if himself and wife Kate were to have a fourth child. Speculation has recently grown amid reports Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton are rumoured to be planning for a fourth child. Mr Ship spoke to Sky News Australia host Paul Murray about the issue. 'It's entirely possible – of course she might have a fourth. 'Although, let's remember, William and Kate are in their 40s now – I think they're done with three, that's my personal prediction – although it's entirely up to them, it's a private matter. 'There's actually a slight serious point to this and Harry's mentioned it before and now William's campaigning more and more on environmental matters – a lot of people say that actually in the interest of the planet you shouldn't be having four children. 'And I'm sure William might open himself up to some criticism from that sort of green lobby if he were to have a fourth. 'But you know what, that's their choice.'

‘The least’ Labor can do is be ‘transparent’ about Syrian repatriation planSky News host Peta Credlin says as citizens of a democracy, we deserve “proper information” about the Albanese government’s plan to repatriate the families of ISIS fighters from Syrian camps. 'No one from the government’s been prepared to level with the Australian people about who is coming, when they're coming, what crimes they may have committed, and how we’re going to be kept safe once they're back,” Ms Credlin said. She said it's this sort of 'gutlessness' to front the camera and provide the detail we all deserve that 'gives governments a bad name and that tarnishes our democracy'. 'There is a case that can be made for bringing them back, especially for the children who have done no wrong,' Ms Credlin said. 'I would probably argue against bringing the women back, but I would at least give a minister credit, standing in front of the cameras and making that case to the Australian people. “But that's what this government won’t do. And given this repatriation was never mentioned before the election, the least they can do now is be transparent.”
