British terror links extend to second investigation (AUS) Schliebs, Wallace Authorities have established links between Australian and British men in two separate terrorism •investigations in recent months, with different groups of people in both countries questioned over their ties to alleged plots. Labor's $14b superannuation hit to well-off (AFR) Coorey The well-off would lose $14 billion in superannuation tax concessions over the next decade under a new Labor policy that it says is needed to keep the system sustainable and restore equity. DOMESTIC AFFAIRS POLITICS Let’s educate the upper house pygmies about democracy (AUS/Opinion) Craven Traditionally, there were two routes to certain social death in Australia.

MELBOURNE TERROR ARRESTS Teenage terror accused set up, father declares (AUS) Akerman The father of a teenager accused of conspiring to plan a terrorist attack has pleaded his son’s innocence, declaring the youth has been “set up”.

UK counterterrorism police in Melbourne for alleged Anzac Day terror plot (CAN) Mills, Cooper, Russell Counterterrorism police from Britain who provided information leading to raids in Melbourne on Saturday have flown in to assist the Anzac Day terror plot investigation. TAX REFORM Joe Hockey 'undermining' tax reform process, experts say (AFR) Mather Tax professionals have taken a swipe at the federal government for "pre-empting" the white paper process by announcing new policies before anybody has had a chance to make a submission.

Exemplary Anzac spirit guides successive generations (SMH/Opinion) Abbott On a still spring night a century ago the ships carrying the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps stole in towards the high coastline of the Gallipoli peninsula. ECONOMY Reform should be Tony Abbott's path of least regret (AFR/Opinion) Mitchell Economy Reform is Australia's best answer to the risk of secular stagnation. Tony Abbott's task is to carry the voters with him. SOCIAL SERVICES Sussan Ley pushes new Medicare deal (AUS) Parnell Doctors and specialists will be enticed to help the Abbott government find new Medicare savings — such as might be achieved through a crackdown on inappropriate practice — if they want a contentious freeze on rebates •lifted. SECURITY/TERRORISM Charity sector ‘faces high risk’ (AUS) Butler Australian authorities are not ­investigating enough money laundering offences and the nation’s charity sector is at risk of being used to channel funding to terrorists, an intergovernmental policymaking group has found.

NAVAL SHIPBUILDING PLAN Launching a new deal for naval shipbuilding (AUS/Opinion) Andrews The Abbott government is committed to a sustainable Australian naval shipbuilding industry.

Bishop's mission to Iran raises more questions than it answers (CAN/Opinion) Yusuf What a crazy few weeks leading up to Anzac Day period it's been. We've had Reclaim Australia holding rallies in most major cities calling for jihad against halal vegemite. We've had hundreds of police swoop on a bunch of kids accused of plotting to kill more police, giving The Daily Telegraph an opportunity to report of "a devastating new terror threat planned for its most revered day", with one columnist reminding us: "Oh, Islam. How the left so cravenly folds when that particular grievance card hits the table". ECONOMY Rush for the exits or reach for the stars (AUS/Opinion) Newman Landing at an Australian airport from a major Asian city leaves you conscious that the look and feel of your destination is significantly inferior to the standard at your departure. Compared to Asia, the facilities pale and a sense of indifference is what greets you. There are no dedicated APEC channels and express lanes are honoured in the breach. The Prime Minister may boast “Australia is open for business”, but you wouldn’t guess that from your arrival DEFENCE/SECURITY US says it won’t share intelligence with Iran (AUS) Lewis The US will not share intelligence with Iran in the fight against •Islamic State and wants more •detail on the deal with Australia. We need a wider national security ethos for the world of 2015 (AFR/Opinion) Medcalf Galipolli anniversary The Anzacs will always be an inspiration, but modern Australians have to deal with a much more complex strategy equation than the one in 1915, writes Rory Medcalf IMMIGRATION We’re willing to help Europe stop boats: Peter Dutton (AUS) Owens Australia is willing to help ­Europe implement “sensible measures” to stop asylum-seeker boats on the Mediterranean, but a long-term solution must centre on •resolving bloody conflicts across the Islamic world, Immigration Minister Peter Dutton says. CLIMATE CHANGE Climate Change Authority presents a compelling case for deeper Australian emissions cuts (SMH) Arup In the complex world of climate change diplomacy Australia is attracting a lot of heat. Reduce emissions by 30pc before 2025, says CCA (AFR) Ludlow The Climate Change Authority has recommended Australia cut greenhouse gas emissions 30 per cent by 2025 – a significant increase on the current commitment of 5 per cent by the end of the decade that would likely hit big emitters such as electricity and aluminium production. Australia should 'get off sidelines' with 30 per cent emissions cut by 2025: report (SMH) Cox, Arup Australia has been urged to rapidly accelerate its cuts to greenhouse gases, with the independent Climate Change Authority recommending the Abbott government adopt an ambitious 30 per cent reduction target on 2000 levels by 2025.

  • Press Release the Hon
    PRESS RELEASE THE HON. TONY ABBOTT MP, LEADER OF THE FEDERAL COALITION A TEAM TO BUILD A STRONGER AUSTRALIA The incoming Coalition Government will restore strong, stable and accountable government to build a more prosperous Australia. This is the team that will scrap the carbon tax, end the waste, stop the boats, build the roads of the twenty first century and deliver the strong and dynamic economy that we need. First term governments are best served by Cabinets with extensive ministerial experience. Fifteen members of the incoming Cabinet have previous ministerial experience. The four members of Cabinet without ministerial experience have made significant contributions to the Shadow Ministry. The simplification of ministerial and departmental titles reflects my determination to run a “back to basics” government. The Australian people expect a government that is upfront, speaks plainly and does the essentials well. The Cabinet will be assisted by a strong team of ministers with proven capacity to implement the Government’s policies. Parliamentary secretaries will assist senior ministers and be under their direction. Good government requires a strong Coalition. As Deputy Prime Minister and as Minister for Infrastructure and Regional Development, the Hon Warren Truss MP will be responsible for ensuring the Government delivers on its major infrastructure commitments across Australia. Mr Jamie Briggs MP will be the Assistant Minister for Infrastructure and Regional Development with specific responsibility for roads and delivery of our election commitments across metropolitan and regional Australia. The Hon Julie Bishop MP will serve as Minister for Foreign Affairs and will be a strong voice for Australia during a time when Australia is a member of the United Nations Security Council.

  • 'I'm Not Expecting to Lose …': the Election Overview and Campaign Narrative
    2 ‘I’m Not Expecting to Lose …’: The Election Overview and Campaign Narrative Marija Taflaga and John Wanna The countdown to a combative election The quotation from Malcolm Turnbull in the chapter title reflected the restrained optimism of the newly installed prime minister facing his first election as leader in the dying days of the 2016 federal election campaign. He spoke these prophetic words reluctantly when asked persistently by TV personality Annabel Crabb on her show Kitchen Cabinet about his expectations of the outcome. While Turnbull’s prediction would ultimately prove accurate (only just!), Turnbull and his Coalition colleagues would get the fright of their lives when the counting began. This chapter provides a chronology of the federal election campaign of 2016. It explores the antecedents of the main events and outcomes, and looks to provide reasons for the largely unexpected closeness of the eventual result. The chapter is broadly divided into five parts: (1) the background context and government’s leadership transition along with the delicate timing and deliberate preparations for a double-dissolution election; (2) the flurry of last-minute policy announcements and budgetary measures; (3) the meandering nature of the lengthy campaign from the standpoint of the main protagonists followed by the resort to 17 DOUBLE DISILLUSION banal sloganeering; (4) the volatile election outcome and the descent into uncertainty; and, finally, (5) the immediate aftermath of the election and an assessment on the wisdom of calling a double dissolution.
