  • Australia's China contradiction: AUKUS vs the Pacific
    The Albanese government has been on an unprecedented campaign of diplomatic activism in the Pacific Islands – all to keep China’s military at a distance. At the same time, AUKUS is remaking our defence strategy, with eight nuclear-powered submarines, expanded facilities for US forces, and plans for a new east-coast submarine base. For some watching on, those two approaches are at odds – the diplomacy aims to prevent a Chinese foothold, while AUKUS gives them the exact reason why they need one. Today, the director of the International Security Program at the Lowy Institute, Sam Roggeveen, on the contradiction at the heart of Australia’s Pacific policy – and whether there’s a safer way to defend our region.

  • Dezi Freeman: from family photographer to alleged cop killer
    Almost a month after two police officers were shot and killed in regional Victoria, the accused gunman – Dezi Freeman – is still at large. Victoria Police have deployed thousands of officers, searched more than a hundred properties, and offered the biggest reward in Victorian history – with no result. People have also been combing Freeman’s Facebook history, which plots a journey from nature photos and family updates, to calling police “Gestapo cowards” and who deserve “Nuremberg 2”. Today, reporter for Crikey Cam Wilson on what Dezi Freeman’s years of posts reveal and whether there’s a pattern we can recognise before it boils over into violence.

  • Washington's warning to Australia over Palestine
    Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is in New York for the UN General Assembly, where Australia has formally recognised the State of Palestine – a step that more than 150 UN member states have now taken. The move is part of what Australian calls "a co-ordinated international effort to build new momentum for a two-state solution". But with no active peace process, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowing to fight calls for Palestinian statehood, and the US attempting to scuttle the process – how much difference will recognition make? Today, press gallery veteran Paul Bongiorno on whether Australia and others can shift the positions of Washington and Israel.

  • The Coalition is in crisis (again)
    The Coalition is again in crisis. The latest Newspoll puts its primary vote at 27 per cent – its worst on record. And with one frontbencher sacked over immigration comments and others threatening to quit over climate policy, the party seems more divided than ever. Today, press gallery journalist Karen Middleton on the ideological battle lines tearing the party apart.

  • How the government’s climate targets stack up
    Having released the National Climate Risk Assessment – a report full of apocalyptic climate warnings – earlier this week, the government has now announced its 2035 emissions reduction target. It’s a range, not a single number: 62–70 per cent below 2005 levels. The government says it’s achievable and ambitious, backed by more renewables and industry support. Critics say it adds little beyond what the states are already on track to deliver, the modelling leans on technology that doesn't exist yet, and it avoids difficult choices – such as stopping new coal and gas projects. Today, contributing editor of The New Daily Amy Remeikis, on how ambitious this target really is, whether it can keep global warming to 1.5 degrees.
