NSW Labor ‘at war’ with itself: Perrottet25/05/2021|2min
NSW Treasurer Dominic Perrottet has told Sky News Labor is “at war” with itself as leadership speculation continues to cloud Opposition Leader Jodi McKay.
Labor suffered a seven-point swing against it in the recent Upper Hunter by-election which fuelled speculation over Ms McKay’s leadership in the subsequent days.
Ms McKay is expected to address the media on Tuesday and announce she won’t resign from the leadership despite calls from senior party officials to quit.
Mr Perrottet said while the Labor Party is “focused on themselves” and not with the people of NSW, the government is preparing to deliver a budget.

Appearing on Sky News Labour’s Lisa Nandy said a proposed one percent pay rise is really a cut.
She commented: “The Government, to be clear, is not planning a pay rise.
“That is a real-terms pay cut because it doesn t keep up with inflation, and for nurses to be offered a pay cut is just reprehensible in our view.

“We think nurses deserve a pay rise this year and that should never have been something that was up for negotiation - this is a Government that has completely got its priorities wrong.”
