A liquor licence application for an Andrew Forrest-linked waterfront hotel on Hackett Drive dubbed Forrest on Swan in front of the University of WA has been panned because it was originally announced as accommodation for visiting academics.

City of Perth Western Residents Association president Anna Vanderbom said the controversial $35 million, 66-room complex in Crawley was originally promoted as residences for “scholars and fellows”.

"We would've thought that UWA would've learnt from the past, the university is about learning. If they went into history they would see that John Forrest, our first premier, was very supportive of respecting public space like Kings Park, without building it," she told Liam Bartlett on 6PR Mornings.

"For his heir (Andrew Forrest) to take no interest in the river and it's protection is unbelievable... he's not following the tradition."

Katrina Marson, a senior prosecutor in the sexual offences unit at the ACT Department of Public Prosecutions, says better sex education will help prevent crimes before they occur.

In her new book Legitimate Sexpectations, Marson relays how the Netherlands is the world leader in what education should include, saying it is incorporated into the curriculum early and involved learning how to recognise certain feelings and how to respond to them.

"There are a lot of jurisdictions here doing this right... but what we don't have in Australia is the consistency that we have seen overseas," she told Liam Bartlett on 6PR Mornings.

"But of the places I visited, the Netherlands and Germany are really instructive examples, because of the way they have built it into their education and health infrastructure."

After 23 years at Xanadu Wines, chief winemaker Glenn Goodall is used to winning trophies and awards.

But none have been as rewarding as being named Winemaker of the Year overnight in the latest 2023 James Halliday Wine Companion.

For the first time in nearly 80 years, war on our doorstep is not just possible, it is likely.

That's according to best-selling author and ex-Major General Senator Jim Molan, who's new book Danger on our Doorstep is officially released on Thursday and examines what exactly China's end game is in all of this.

The book is an unsettling assessment of how and when war with China might break out and the consequences for the world. Senator Molan told Liam Bartlett on 6PR Mornings the book looks at what Australia’s options are in confronting a rising and belligerent China.

"I'm quite confident we are not putting enough resources into the situation we've got at the moment, and I think this is something we should not be too scared to address," he said.
