'Double standards': Albanese ‘getting a free pass' from mainstream media

Sky News host Chris Kenny believes Australia's media has normalised double standards by shielding Prime Minister Anthony Albanese from scrutiny while giving Labor a free pass. “It's hard to overstate the amount of denial, delusion and bias in our political debate. The overwhelming majority of journalists and media in this country with the green Left are weak and deferential to Labor,” Mr Kenny said. “You're supposed to have some spine. Instead, the journos elicited nonsense. “Albo is allowed to move on. The press pack don't ask him about his embarrassments; he's not forced to address it in front of the cameras, and we're expected to pretend this is a level playing field. “What we are seeing is double standards, lies, and hypocrisy being normalised.”

Chris Philp has told GB News that Britain must get tougher on countries who refuse to take back their criminals, following the release of Rochdale grooming gang ringleader Shabir Ahmed.Speaking to host Christopher Hope, Mr Philp said: I think it's unacceptable. If a UK citizen overseas commits a crime or is in another country illegally, of course we take them back and the same should apply for every other country around the world, including Pakistan. We expect them to take back their own citizens and if they don't agree to that, and currently Pakistan are being difficult. It's very simple, we say if you don't take back your own citizens who are criminals or illegal immigrants, zero overseas aid.WATCH ABOVE. Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter
