NSW Premier Morris Iemma resigns

NSW Premier Morris Iemma has been dumped, Treasurer Michael Costa has been sacked and Deputy Premier and Transport Minister John Watkins has resigned, writes Alex Mitchell.

It’s obvious: Premier Iemma must sack Costa

If NSW Premier Morris Iemma is fair dinkum about restoring some credibility and cohesion to his dysfunctional government, then tomorrow’s Cabinet reshuffle is a no-brainer, writes Alex Mitchell.

Iemma’s NSW: at least the trains, ah, well you know …

Morris Iemma somehow expects people will elect John Watkins on the back of a promise to built a much needed metro system more than 10 times larger by any measure than the one it abjectly fails to run today, writes Ben Sandilands.
