Prime Minister Scott Morrison has slammed modern-day cancel culture and identity politics and also urged people not to expect handouts from the state.
In a speech at a United Israel function on faith and community in Sydney on Thursday night, he said Australians should take responsibility for themselves. Where we once understood our rights in terms of our protections from the state, now it seems these rights are increasingly defined by what we expect from the state, he said.

Morrison was in Darwin announcing a substantial $747 million upgrade to four military facilities in northern Australia.

Jacinda Ardern has been praised by China s authoritarian regime for deepening its cooperation with Beijing and steering New Zealand away from its Five Eyes allies.
The Kiwi leader has tried to strike a balance between appeasing its largest trading partner China, and maintaining its security partnerships with other western democracies - Australia, the US, the UK and Canada.
New Zealand was the only member of the intelligence network not to condemn China s violent crackdown on pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong and has largely remained silent on Beijing s campaign of economic coercion against Australia.
