‘Nobody gets a free pass’ on international law: Chris Bowen on ICC seeking arrest warrants

Paul Karp

The energy minister, Chris Bowen, has weighed in on the ICC prosecutors seeking arrest warrants for senior Hamas and Israeli officials for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity, including the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu.

Bowen told Sky News:

I respect the International Criminal Court and I respect the work they do. International law must be respected and, of course, [it] was not respected by Hamas. Israel must respect international law. I heard … Peter Dutton’s comments which were, in and of themselves, highly irresponsible by Peter Dutton to drag this through a domestic political debate … International law must always be observed and nobody gets a free pass for that.

Asked if the seeking of warrants created a false moral equivalence between Hamas and Israel’s leadership, Bowen deadbatted by repeating his line about respecting the ICC which he said is “what the prime minister has said”.

Bowen’s comments do go a bit further than Anthony Albanese, though, who said only that he wouldn’t comment on court processes.

Bowen holds the western Sydney seat of McMahon, which is multiculturally diverse – and exactly the sort of place Labor is feeling pressure over whether it should go further in condemning Israel’s response to the 7 October attacks by Hamas.

The Greens leader, Adam Bandt, has called on prime minister Anthony Albanese to back the decision from the ICC prosecutor, seeking arrest warrants for senior Hamas and Israeli officials for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Speaking to the media this afternoon, Bandt said:

\n

No one is above the law, especially when it comes to war crimes and genocide.

\n

For months now, the Greens have been saying that what the Israeli military is doing is not self-defence. It is collective punishment of hundreds of thousands of civilians, many of whom have now been killed, or injured or missing. And with food running out, with children now dying because they can’t get enough to eat or drink, with aid being cut off, it is time for Labor to not only back this latest step from the International Criminal Court, but to take action against this extreme war cabinet of Benjamin Netanyahu.

Under our reforms, there’ll be more invested in people with disability under our reforms tomorrow than there is today … [and the states] need to stop whingeing about the fact that we’re getting on with our day job and join us.

The competition watchdog has urged the Albanese government to support new airlines to enter Australia’s aviation market and help existing smaller operators expand, as it rues the likelihood that budget carrier Bonza will collapse.

Following Bonza’s fleet of Boeing 737 Max 8s being abruptly repossessed and its workforce stood down indefinitely as administrators determine its future, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission said “it would be detrimental to competition if Bonza was not able to resume services”.

The ACCC, in its quarterly domestic aviation monitoring report, said that while Bonza appeared to be hampered by issues with its US private equity owner 777 Partners and a lack of aircraft, Bonza’s business model had proved successful in boosting regional connectivity and driving down prices on routes it competed on, despite only gaining 2% market share at its peak.

“Bonza’s presence represented an opportunity for greater competition to emerge in the concentrated domestic aviation sector, such as if the airline had continued to grow with more aircraft and entered busier routes connecting Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane,” the report said, noting Bonza’s inability to access take off and landing slots at Sydney Airport at the times it wanted as a barrier.

The NDIS is in focus today at a parliamentary inquiry examining a new bill that proposes to get the $44bn scheme “back on track”.

The first witness is Prof Bruce Bonyhady, an architect of the scheme and one of the author’s of last year’s NDIS review. Bonyhady says the bill is “consistent” with his review’s recommendations but he’s also aware of the concern members of the disability community have raised.

Since the NDIS amendments bill was tabled, I’ve heard concern about some of the details and agree that these need to be worked through very carefully as part of the processes of this committee and with the government. This detail is obviously important.

And so I welcome the statement from the minister [Bill Shorten] in his second reading speech, that he wants to get it right. And I’m sure that in the coming weeks there will be improvements consistent with the minister’s statement.

The bill, if passed, would allow the government to change NDIS rules to target plan intra-inflation – where participants spend the funds in their plan and then request a top-up. Another proposal will remove existing itemised budgets, replacing it with a simplified system with flexible supports and stated supports.

The opposition leader, Peter Dutton, is now taking questions from reporters, and is asked about the US president Joe Biden’s response to the ICC prosecutor.

Biden has labelled an application by the ICC for warrants seeking the arrest of the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, along with senior members of Hamas, for actions carried out in Gaza as “outrageous”. Dutton told reporters:

Australia should stand shoulder to shoulder with president Biden. He has shown leadership by standing up against this equivalence, which is completely and utterly repugnant to compare the Israeli prime minister to a terrorist organisation leader and to not have some clarity in relation to it, I think is appalling.

\n

The prime minister squibbed it today when he was asked about this issue, and the prime minister had the opportunity at the ICC where Australia was consulted in relation to this matter – they didn’t weigh in and say there were against this measure, instead, they sat on the sideline and had nothing to say about it at all …

\n

[The PM is] tarnishing and damaging our international relationships with like-minded nations when he’s not strong enough to stand up alongside president Joe Biden. I very strongly support the comments of president Biden today in relation to the ICC, it’s an abomination and it needs to be ceased, this action is antisemitic and it is against the interests of peace in the Middle East.

Well, Peter Dutton always looks to divide. What I look for is to unite Australia, to unite us because, if we’re optimistic about seizing the opportunities which are before us, we can really use this decade to set us up for a generation to come …

\n

[Dutton’s] out there saying he wants Australians to work longer for less, he’s saying that he’ll oppose the measures that we have announced for people to not be working 24 hours a day if they’re not being paid 24 hours a day. He’s announced a range of other divisive policies that don’t present a coherent way forward.

\n

We’re addressing the migration issue. We’re addressing the housing issue. We’re addressing all of the challenges that are before Australia in a considered, orderly way. That is something that has characterised my government … That responsible policy stands in stark contrast to the waste and mismanagement and denial and delay of the former government over 10 years, including Peter Dutton, who presided over a migration number that was higher than what we are projecting going forward when he was the minister with responsibility.

I don’t comment on court proceedings. What we need to concentrate on when it comes to the Middle East is what we have been saying. From the time that, on October 7, the terrorist atrocity committed by Hamas – we opposed that.

\n

We have called for the release of hostages. We’ve called for a humanitarian ceasefire. We’ve called for increased humanitarian aid for the people of Gaza. We’ve said that every life matters, whether it be Israeli or Palestinian. And we’ve called for progress towards a two-state solution.

\n

That is where we are concentrating, playing a role where we can in promoting the right of both the Israelis and Palestinians to live in security, in peace and in prosperity.

At the same time, the need for better connectivity right across the country only continues to grow … This means we have to make significant ongoing investments in our infrastructure, our technology, and our services to deliver what our customers need today and into the future.

\n

While parts of our business are performing strongly, there are parts that are not delivering to expectation. We also haven’t been on track to deliver our cost-out ambitions. Higher-than-expected inflation and cost pressures, including energy costs, have made meeting this ambition more challenging.

\n

The actions we are announcing today are difficult, but they are necessary. We need to be a more efficient and sustainable business to ensure we can keep investing at the levels required to meet the ever-increasing demand for our connectivity and services for our customers right across the country.

Independent MP Andrew Wilkie said he was “absolutely” concerned about Assange’s mental and physical health, noting he couldn’t attend the court hearing yesterday or in February, “because he is genuinely too sick”.

Regardless of what you think of him, surely he has suffered enough and should be … reunited with his family and to return to Australia if that’s his wish. And that’s not just my view, that is the view I’m sure [of] millions of Australians, many millions of people around the world and in fact, it was the view of the Australian parliament in February this year when I was able to secure majority support for a motion in the House of Representatives calling for the matter to be dropped.

Asked if he thinks the US is any closer to dropping or amending the charges, Wilkie told ABC RN he was “cautious” in responding because he has no “insight into where they’re at”.

It’s good that Julian Assange is not on an aeroplane to the US as we speak. It’s good that he gets another chance to have the whole matter dropped in court and also gives everyone more time to strike a deal or to finalise the deal …

\n

Of course there’s a downside though, you know. [Assange remains] in Belmarsh prison in London, facing months or maybe years of further court action in the UK, which is just a terrible turn of events. I mean, it should never have come to this … He should never have been in Belmarsh prison [and] there should have been a deal struck by now to get him out. He’s been there for over five years.

A High Court decision in Britain to allow Julian Assange to appeal his extradition to the US is a “small win” for the WikiLeaks founder but he should be freed now, the union for Australia’s journalists says.

As AAP reports, the Media, Entertainment & Arts Alliance remains concerned there is no certainty an appeal will be successful, which would mean Assange could still be tried for espionage in the US.

MEAA media federal president Karen Percy said the high court was correct in not accepting “assurances” by the US about how Assange would be treated in the US legal system.

Tonight’s decision by the High Court is a small win for Julian Assange and for the cause of media freedom worldwide.

But MEAA urged US president Joe Biden to intervene to end the prosecution of Assange to avoid dragging the case out even longer, Percy said.

MEAA welcomes the decision of the High Court, but we remain concerned that there is no guarantee of success.

In June 2022 Victoria’s consumer watchdog penned a strongly worded letter to one of Australia’s biggest private debt collection firms, Panthera Finance.

Julian Assange has been granted leave to appeal against his extradition to the US after judges ruled that “assurances” given by the US over his legal rights and the prospect of a death penalty were not satisfactory.

The Julian Assange saga has entered a new phase after judges in London granted him leave to appeal extradition to the US over the WikiLeaks revelations. Assange’s wife Stella called on the US to abandon its “shameful” case against him founder after the high court in London gave him legal lifeline by granting the right to challenge the basis of the extradition in court. The judges rejected assurances from the US justice department about how it would conduct his trial if he was extradited on charges of leaking military secrets – such as whether he can plead free speech under the first amendment of the US constitution. More on the reaction to the decision coming up.

Greens call on Albanese to back ICC prosecutor

Speaking to the media this afternoon, Bandt said:

No one is above the law, especially when it comes to war crimes and genocide.

For months now, the Greens have been saying that what the Israeli military is doing is not self-defence. It is collective punishment of hundreds of thousands of civilians, many of whom have now been killed, or injured or missing. And with food running out, with children now dying because they can’t get enough to eat or drink, with aid being cut off, it is time for Labor to not only back this latest step from the International Criminal Court, but to take action against this extreme war cabinet of Benjamin Netanyahu.

UQ students defy ban on anti-Israel chant

Andrew Messenger

Dozens of University of Queensland students have marched on the university chancellory repeating a banned anti-Israel chant.

The university has banned “Out out Israel out” as antisemitic.

The group carried a sign bearing words from a university policy. It’s free speech policy reads:

Staff and students at the university enjoy freedom of speech on land of the university. The exercise of academic freedom by staff and students should not constitute misconduct or attract any penalty.

Advance Australia calls on donors to fight the Greens

The right-wing lobby group, Advance Australia, has placed the Greens in its firing line, saying the progressive minor party could “prop up” a minority Labor government at the next federal election.

In an email to its supporters this morning, the group’s executive director, Matthew Sheahan, called on supporters to donate to the group in an effort to “change the direction” of the next federal election.

Because while Aussies might be getting sick of the Albanese government, many of them reckon they can vote for the Greens instead. But you and I know that’s a disaster.

The group noted the Greens had grown from one parliamentary member in 1983 to 40 across federal, state and territory parliaments in 40 years. Sheahan continued:

You and I don’t want the Greens propping up a second term of Albanese; in fact they shouldn’t be in parliament at all.

Advance Australia was thanked by the opposition leader Peter Dutton for its role in the “no” side’s win at the Indigenous voice to parliament referendum.

Political donations data, released by the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) in February, showed Advance Australia received $5.2m in donations and other receipts in the financial year covering, in part, the lead up to the referendum.

6 News founder unhappy with potential social media ban for under 16s

Amongst the debate on whether those under 16 should be allowed on social media is a vocal cohort with more skin in the game than others – Australia’s teenage journalists.

Leonardo Puglisi founded 6 News when he was 11 and now five years later, with a team of fellow young journos, the outlet has covered elections, international conflict and interviewed everyone from Scott Morrison to Anthony Albanese. He has garnered tens of thousands of followers and even fielded a job offer from Seven West’s new publication The Nightly.

Writing about the potential ban on X, Puglisi said: “This would literally ban half the [6News] team lmao no thank you.” He continued:

How are you going to police this? Trust me when I say if teens are determined to get on social media they’ll succeed.

And what counts as social media? Are we gonna ban 15yos from having a YouTube account? Come on.

This would literally ban half the @6NewsAU team lmao no thank you https://t.co/wSzgdQkdLU

Australia announces nearly $50m in funding for Solomon Islands projects

The deputy prime minister Richard Marles has made two announcements while visiting the Solomon Islands today, with nearly $50m in funding for a new border management system and health centre.

Australia has committed $3.2m to upgrade immigration operations by digitising the visa process, border entries and exits, and improving processes for revenue collection. This is expected to be fully implemented by mid-next year.

Meanwhile Australia will also deliver $45m for the Naha Birthing and Urban Health Centre in East Honiara, allowing new mothers to access pre- and post-natal care as well as eye, dental, pathology, x-ray and ultrasound and pharmacy services.

Australia will also provide medical equipment and staff training for the facility.

Marles said in a statement this would help to “ease pressure on the main hospital in Honiara.” He shared this photo earlier today, with newly elected Solomon Islands PM Jeremiah Manele.

Australia deeply values our strong and enduring partnership.

‘Nobody gets a free pass’ on international law: Chris Bowen on ICC seeking arrest warrants

Paul Karp

Bowen told Sky News:

I respect the International Criminal Court and I respect the work they do. International law must be respected and, of course, [it] was not respected by Hamas. Israel must respect international law. I heard … Peter Dutton’s comments which were, in and of themselves, highly irresponsible by Peter Dutton to drag this through a domestic political debate … International law must always be observed and nobody gets a free pass for that.

Bowen’s comments do go a bit further than Anthony Albanese, though, who said only that he wouldn’t comment on court processes.

Shorten stoushes with premiers over NDIS changes: ‘They’re wrong’

Sarah Basford Canales

While proposals to change how the NDIS works are being discussed in parliament today, the NDIS minister has been swatting away criticism from the states and territories on funding for the scheme.

People with disability don’t have time to wait. I get that the states are important players, and it’s important to consider their ideas … but the presumption that somehow people with disability have got years to wait until some levels of government want to engage in their needs is wrong.

NDIS minister Bill Shorten says the states need to ‘stop whingeing’ and ‘join us’. Photograph: Mike Bowers/The Guardian

Shorten has said today:

Under our reforms, there’ll be more invested in people with disability under our reforms tomorrow than there is today … [and the states] need to stop whingeing about the fact that we’re getting on with our day job and join us.

Taylor Swift drove air traffic to record levels, ACCC report finds

Taylor Swift not only captured the hearts of hundreds of thousands of Australians when she toured in February; she also delivered a big boost to airlines’ operations.

The passion of Australian Swifties has been recognised by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission in its latest quarterly domestic aviation monitoring report.

The ACCC found that for the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic, domestic passenger numbers in February exceeded 2019 levels.

Behind the spike in air travel were fans travelling to Melbourne and Sydney to attend some of Swift’s seven concerts. The fact there was an extra leap day this February, as well as a WWE wrestling event in Perth, also contributed to the increased demand to fly, but Swift’s tour alone was the largest driver, the ACCC said. It’s monitoring found:

Airlines added some capacity following news of her tour. For example, Qantas announced it had added 67 additional flights, or over 11,000 seats on Melbourne and Sydney routes.

Ex-aide and ministers should admit being wrong: senator

The Liberal senator Linda Reynolds, her former political staffer Brittany Higgins and Higgins’s fiance have started a second round of talks in a bid to resolve a pair of high-profile defamation cases, AAP reports.

The former defence minister, who plans to retire from politics at the next election, is suing Higgins and David Sharaz over a series of social media posts she says have damaged her reputation.

Reynolds said it was time for the parties to accept Justice Michael Lee’s judgment in the recent Bruce Lehrmann defamation case as she arrived at the WA supreme court today. She told reporters:

It’s time for them to admit they got it wrong.

Reynolds also said the finance minister, Katy Gallagher, and the attorney general, Mark Dreyfus, should accept Lee’s findings in the federal court.

Lee’s judgment in Lehrmann’s defamation case against Network Ten and journalist Lisa Wilkinson found that on the balance of probabilities he did rape Higgins, but the allegation of a political cover-up “was objectively short on facts but long on speculation”.

Lehrmann has always denied the sexual assault allegation. His trial was aborted due to juror misconduct and Higgins’s mental health was cited as the reason for no retrial.

Do more to help new airlines, ACCC urges government

While the airline industry may always have greater barriers to entry than most other parts of the economy, government policies should support such entry and expansion as much as possible.

Circling back to NDIS bill inquiry

A bill to overhaul how the NDIS works and get it “back on track” financially requires “significant” changes, disability advocacy groups say.

A parliamentary inquiry is examining the proposals – which change how plans are budgeted and what supports and items can be funded.

It follows the release of the NDIS review late last year, which recommended focus on functional impairment over diagnoses and that entry to the scheme be limited to those with serious disability while simultaneously building up disability services outside the NDIS for those who can no longer access it.

Those disability services outside the NDIS, to be partly funded and administered by the states and territories, are referred to as “foundational supports”.

But community advocates are concerned changes to who can access the scheme might occur before the states and territories are able to build up an adequate level of “foundational supports”.

El Gibbs, acting chief executive of the Disability Advocacy Network Australia, said the lack of “clear timelines” for building up those supports was a serious concern.

Sophie Cusworth, the acting head of Women with Disabilities Australia, said there was still limited information about the design of foundational supports, including their availability and eligibility criteria.

These reforms must be designed simultaneously in collaboration with state and territory governments and representative peaks like us to ensure that no one is left without essential supports and services.

Bystanders make citizen’s arrest after man allegedly stabs woman with knife

A woman has allegedly been stabbed by a stranger as she was walking down the street, AAP reports, with bystanders intervening to arrest the knife-wielding man.

The woman in her 20s was walking in Melbourne’s St Kilda East when a man approached this morning, police said. He allegedly slashed her on the arm with a knife about 8.40am on Hotham Street.

Police allege he tried to run away but members of the public restrained him until police arrived. The 44-year-old St Kilda East man was arrested and taken to hospital under police guard with minor injuries.

The woman was taken to hospital for treatment on her non-life-threatening injuries. A man in his 30s, who helped with the citizen’s arrest was also taken to hospital with minor injuries.

Jewish synagogue, library and learning centre, The Yeshiva Centre, is located on Hotham Street near where the incident took place. But a police spokesman said there was “nothing to suggest” the alleged stabbing was religiously motivated.

Police will allege the parties were not known to each other.

Police have called for witnesses of the incident to come forward.

Bill to get NDIS ‘back on track’ being examined at parliamentary inquiry

Sarah Basford Canales

The NDIS is in focus today at a parliamentary inquiry examining a new bill that proposes to get the $44bn scheme “back on track”.

About $14.4bn in federal budget savings over the next four years is also dependent on the proposals to overhaul the scheme passing parliament this year.

Since the NDIS amendments bill was tabled, I’ve heard concern about some of the details and agree that these need to be worked through very carefully as part of the processes of this committee and with the government. This detail is obviously important.

And so I welcome the statement from the minister [Bill Shorten] in his second reading speech, that he wants to get it right. And I’m sure that in the coming weeks there will be improvements consistent with the minister’s statement.
