Sky News contributor Emily Carver has questioned whether British taxpayers should have to pay “huge sums of money” for Prince Harry’s security court case. Ms Carver joined Sky News host Danica De Giorgio to discuss the royal’s court case which has cost British taxpayers more than £500,000. “You couldn’t it make it up,” Ms Carver said. “I do think there is a question over whether the Royal Family should be able to take legal action against the government in this way and whether it should be costing the taxpayer huge sums of money. “Of course, we’re just hearing this, but he’s been left with an estimated legal bill of about a million pounds himself so there really aren’t any winners here at all.”

Kennedy Jr. has named Silicon Valley attorney and entrepreneur Nicole Shanahan his running mate at a campaign rally on Tuesday. “Third parties in this country – they typically don’t get a lot of traction,” Mr Mulvaney told Sky News host James Morrow. “In an election that’s going to be as close as this one … it could change the outcome of the election. “You’ve got a situation now where just a couple thousand votes in Michigan could cost Joe Biden the election. “Democrats are slightly more concerned about Kennedy than the Trump team.”

Australia Israel and Jewish Affairs Council’s Joel Burnie says Israel is “very upset” with the UN’s ceasefire resolution as there was no condemnation of Hamas’ October 7 attacks. Mr Burnie joined Sky News host Danica De Giorgio to discuss the UN’s demands for an immediate ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. “It also calls for an immediate ceasefire but doesn’t really suggest that there could be a potential temporary truce that was already on the table,” he said. “Now if Hamas is praising you publicly or praising a government for doing something, it might be an indication that you might have got this wrong. “But in saying that, I wouldn’t want to overestimate the impact that this has had on the Israel-United States relationship.”

Former White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney has criticised Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s running mate Nicole Shanahan as a “hardcore progressive left-winger”. Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has named Silicon Valley attorney and entrepreneur Nicole Shanahan his running mate at a campaign rally on Tuesday. “Here’s the issue it’s creating for him right now: yes, she brings a lot of money, but the only way he’s going to get on the ballot in a considerable number of states is by running as a Libertarian,” Mr Mulvaney told Sky News host James Morrow. “He’s got some Libertarian sort of tendencies … but she’s not – she’s a hardcore progressive left-winger. “I was talking this week to the Chairman of the Libertarian Party in this country … and what she said was they’re kind of okay with Kennedy, but they really do not like this Shanahan woman.”

Julian Assange’s lawyer Jennifer Robinson speaks with Sky News host Sharri Markson about “credible” sources’ claims that the CIA planned to kidnap and assassinate Assange. “This is an outrageous story but one that is support by a Yahoo News investigation, supported by more than 30 government sources, that the Trump administration had in fact planned to kidnap and kill Julian Assange in London,” Ms Robinson told Sky News host Sharri Markson. “We have been trying to adduce this evidence in the extradition proceedings showing that this shows the broader persecution of Julian Assange that he’s been targeted because of his political opinions. “And about our concerns about what will happen to him once extradited to the United States. “When you have a government that is planning to plot and kill a journalist – an Australian journalist –how can we have any faith in the way they’re going to be treated within the legal system?”

Julian Assange’s lawyer Jennifer Robinson speaks about a UK court’s decision to delay Assange’s appeal on his extradition. “I spent yesterday afternoon in prison with him after the judgement came down, going over the decision, and of course it’s disappointing,” Mr Robinson told Sky News host Sharri Markson. “We are in a position where the court has in fact validated the concerns we’ve long had about this case, about the risk to free speech, if he's extradited, about the risk he’d be exposed to the death penalty, about the discrimination he’ll face as an Australian citizen in receiving constitutional protections. “And yet the court yesterday decided, even though these are problems we’re going to offer the US the opportunity to remedy these fundamental fatal flaws in their case by mere political promises. “And this is unacceptable, this is an award winning Australian citizen and journalist who is facing life in prison in the United States.”

Julian Assange’s lawyer Jennifer Robinson says there is “no evidence” anyone was physically harmed as a result of the WikiLeaks disclosures. “There are a lot of statements by the government saying, well, this potentially caused harm, we needed to move people from particular embassies,” Ms Robinson told Sky News host Sharri Markson. “But this ignores the immense public interest in these publications," she said. “Revelations about war crimes, the killing of thousands more civilians in the Iraq War than was ever acknowledged. “When we’re talking about journalism and publication and public interest, these things have to be weighed up – no one was physically harmed and look what was revealed.”

Assistant Trade Minister Tim Ayres has launched an attack on Barnaby Joyce after the former deputy prime minister questioned the deal which saw China lift trade tariffs. “It is hard to fathom a bloke like Barnaby Joyce who is unable to accept a government would behave with honour in the Australian national interest without being blowhards on the domestic scene and will just work through this in a programmatic, sensible kind of way to achieve the outcome,” Mr Ayres told Sky News Australia. Mr Joyce came into question after he commented on Labor’s new renewable energy project, calling it a “swindle factory” while also pointing out the Chinese-bought materials came at the same time as the wine tariffs being lifted. Mr Ayres denied any connection between the $1 billion solar panel project and the dropping of tariffs as he slammed Mr Joyce for being “hostile” and saying “wild things”. “He has absolutely no evidence for that kind of proposition – he is just making it up because that is all the Coalition has got,” Mr Ayres said. “Negativity, conspiracy theories, fear campaigns – we just should stick to the facts.”

Former UN assistant secretary-general Ramesh Thakur discusses the passing of the UN Security Council’s immediate ceasefire resolution on Monday, saying it was "one-sided" in its impact. “I think it reflects a lot of anger in the UN community on the civilian carnage that’s inevitable when you have a war – I think they forget a couple of key things though,” Mr Thakur told Sky News host Sharri Markson. “One, the war started with the Hamas attacks on October 7 that were particularly brutal and gruesome, and were it not for what happened on 7th of October, there would be no Israeli military presence in Gaza today. “The second they forget is that the war could indeed end if Hamas releases all the hostages, surrenders weapons and hand it over for trial. The senior commanders are responsible for what happened on 7th October. “And the third thing is I think they ignore the reality that the civilian casualties are so high.”
