«Breaking News» Shock for Berejiklian in NSW by-election

NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has just six months to convince voters she is the right person for the job after her government's disastrous result in the Wagga Wagga by-election.

Independent Joe McGirr is likely to take the seat from the Liberals for the first time in more than 60 years after a projected swing of about 29 per cent against the government.

Ms Berejiklian took responsibility for the poor result, but then described the federal leadership coup, combined with the local corruption scandal that sparked the early poll, as "the perfect storm".

"The timing of the by-election, which coincided with other major events, other major political events, could not have been foreseen," Ms Berejiklian told reporters in Sydney on Sunday.

Labor leader Luke Foley criticised Ms Berejiklian for attempting to shift some of the blame to her federal colleagues.

"It's a bit rich to say 'I accept responsibility but it was my federal colleagues fault' in the same breath," Mr Foley told reporters in Wagga.

Ms Berejiklian did apologise to voters for the by-election, forced by the resignation of disgraced MP Daryl Maguire amid a corruption inquiry.

"I want the people of Wagga to know that my government will work hard across NSW but especially in that region, to win back the trust that we have clearly lost."

Voters in NSW face a state election on March 23.

Dr McGirr has ruled out joining any major party whether he was elected or not.

"I am an independent and I intend to continue as an independent ... even if I didn't get in," he told reporters.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
