MURRAY JONES, HOST: You might remember in the last week or so, Sky News, one of their personalities, and looking at Sky News in general, always on attack against the Prime Minister and the government. But in the last week or so, Graham Richardson, I think it was, was a guest on Sky and he commented that the PM is still doing pretty well in the polls, mainly because he's such a likeable character. I was very surprised to hear that from Sky News and they actually put it to air.

KARL STEFANOVIC, HOST: Australia has struck a significant defence deal this morning, launching a new missile pact with the US and Japan to combat China's military threats. And the Prime Minister joins us now live from Brisbane. PM, good morning to you. You've struck a deal on missiles with Japan. How's that all going to work?

HOST: Anthony Albanese, our Prime Minister, will declare his support for Queensland's $62 billion energy and jobs plan, cementing the theme of the Federal Government's upcoming Budget. And we happen to have the man himself on the phone this morning. Good morning, Prime Minister.

NATALIE BARR, HOST: Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, joins me now. Good morning to you.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, Nat.

BARR: We know you're saying that nothing has changed with your policy. Peter Dutton says this is the most reckless act of a Foreign Minister in 20 years. Jewish groups are furious. They say, ‘We've got a war. This will reward Hamas’. Was it ill-timed, these statements?
