‘Cowardice’: Left-wing government lacks ‘values’ to address Middle East conflict

The Australian Foreign Editor Greg Sheridan has criticised the Australian government for their "cowardice" response to the Middle East conflict. “I’m quite ashamed of the government,” Mr Sheridan told Sky News host Andrew Bolt. “It’s a left-wing government trying to govern from the centre, but it doesn’t know how, doesn’t have the values, doesn’t have the mindset, its offices aren’t staffed that way and its response has been characterised by cowardice.”
