Boris Johnson’s office says the British Prime Minister has agreed to work with US President Joe Biden to ensure all those eligible to leave Afghanistan were able to, including after the initial evacuation phase ended.
“They discussed the ongoing efforts by the UK and US to coordinate the rapid and safe evacuation of our nationals and those who previously worked with our governments from Kabul International Airport,” a Downing Street spokesman said after the two leaders spoke by phone on Tuesday morning (Australian time)
“The leaders agreed to continue working together to ensure those who are eligible to leave are able to, including after the initial phase of the evacuation has ended.”
Britain, US agree on Kabul evacuation plan
Western media, a tool of the political, military and business establishment, have played a part in the killing of millions in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Libya, writes John Menadue. In turn, Australia’s media is a tool of this “US Imperium”.
Australia’s media does not just have a problem being dominated by legacy US and UK media. We have a particular problem. Its name is Rupert Murdoch, an American citizen who owns two-thirds of Australia’s metropolitan dailies, a monopoly Pay TV licence in Foxtel, and more.
News Corp was a key supporter of the unmitigated disaster which was the Iraq War. Of the 173 Murdoch papers worldwide only one, the Hobart Mercury, opposed that war, a war sometimes described as ‘the Murdoch War’.
Murdoch told us in 2003, “I think (George W) Bush acted very morally, very correctly. US troops will soon be welcomed as liberators”.
His Foreign Editor on The Australian Greg Sheridan could not contain himself. “The bold eagle of American power is aloft, high above the humble earth. For as it soars and sweeps it sees victory, power and opportunity”.
Sheridan is still in his job. Murdoch prefers loyalty to competence in all those around him, including his family.
White Man’s Media: Rupert Murdoch and the US Imperium
The Cladding Salesman PM is found doing a photoshoot pretending to talk into a Mac that is so bored it isn't even turned on.
In the same fashion as a desperate salesman Morrison is now pushing yet another fake argument that the Doherty Institute has revised it's model issued earlier on Covid-19 including Delta. The Director of the Institute has declared their model remains the same it hasn't changed and is applicable no matter the numbers fitted into it. Morrison is suggesting there has been a massive change and revision of it that now requires an absolutely new approach to Covid from suppression to living with it. This distinction is false and one never made by the Doerty Institute.
Morrison hardly explains the science as foretasted and in a political frenzied effort to boost himself and his stocks rather than analysing what is best determined for the Public prefers to just improve his Political Health.
Morrison's mixed messaging has always been about him. It resulted in the shortage of vaccines initially, in the unvaccinated numbers in the healthcare sector itself and even now in the current cancellations that are occurring in vaccination appointments. Playing the role of "alpha male" to the media isn't working for this incompetent PM as nobody believes him when only his lips move.
Feeling safer than he did on the "Insiders". How does he get rid of the ABC
AMONGST THE MANY reasons why Morrison is virtually untouchable is that the most powerful news outlet in the country – Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp – chooses not to emphasise his political problems.
Scott Morrison shielded by Murdoch protection racket
