Sky News host Peta Credlin says UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s quick decision to show support for Israel is a demonstration of what “real leadership” looks like.
“The UK Prime Minister outright rejected any attempt at moral equivalence that some in the media are trying to get up that we have seen from weak politicians here on the left,” Ms Credlin said.
“Greens MPs like Senator Mehreen Faruqi, who said it was a ‘disgrace’ for the Australian parliament to show solidarity with Israel.
“Or frontbenchers like Tony Burke who have still failed to condemn the violent hate from an Islamic preacher at an event in his own electorate on Sunday night.”
A Muslim Sheik preached to a crowd outside Lakemba station supporting the escalation of violence by Hamas against Israeli people, which is within the Employment Minister’s electorate.
