Federal MP Zali Steggall is being advised on climate issues by one of the nation’s most disproved doomsday scientists. Left-wing activist Tim Flannery was appointed by Ms Steggall in 2019 to advise her on meteorological issues, despite his speciality area being with mammals.
THE witch-hunt against Attorney-General Christian Porter is far more sinister than it initially would seem. It comes from a clandestine politically correct operation soaking up taxpayer-funded resources for a range of political campaigns from a shady, out-of-control ABC fiefdom.
THE Left’s organisational team that oversaw former Prime Minister Tony Abbott’s 2019 election disaster has controversially been given a second chance to win Warringah. The former Liberal stronghold had never been lost by the Party until its hard Left “moderate” faction grabbed control in 2018.
OUR most immediate and now well understood threat is from China. Yet people think an attack can’t happen, which was the mindset about Japan before Pearl Harbour. America saved Australia from being invaded and subjugated, and from large portions of our populace from being raped. The Russians raped two million Germans in 1945, about 200,000 of whom subsequently suicided.
THERE used to be a statutory office whose very name struck terror into the hearts of those who feared for their sanity, now or in the future. This was the Master in Lunacy. Threats were frequently made that “men in white coats” were ready to take anyone away for behaviour or even comment judged irrational. We may well wonder what the Master would think of those who govern us today.
FORMER Melbourne University vice-chancellor Glyn Davis has called the government a “threat” to academic freedoms over its insistence on freedom of speech on campus. In a heated exchange with former education minister Dan Tehan, Prof Davis wrote “there is an irony in governments deciding to investigate academic freedoms as government frequently emerges as the largest threat to such freedoms”.
CANBERRA’S latest folly is a referendum, costing up to a quarter of a billion dollars, to replace the politicians’ oath with an empty pledge without legal effect. Instead, why not bring in real reform and finally make the politicians accountable? The referendum should be to allow Australians to initiate recall elections for non-performing politicians.
LIBERAL backbencher Craig Kelly has endured heavy backlash from political opponents for his wary stance of the government’s immediate COVID-19 vaccination plans and his sharing information on potential vaccine supplements. The outspoken Liberal member of parliament for Hughes said he is not an anti-vaxxer but he prefers a “wait to see” approach to learn from other vaccination trials before throwing his support behind the government’s move to vaccinate as many Australians as possible.
MALCOLM Turnbull replacement Dave Sharma has told conservatives to “get over it” as the Liberal Party continues its radical lurch Left. Self-described as a “modern Liberal”, the new member for Wentworth said the Party was a broad church and that green energy was “inevitable”.
PRIME Minister Scott Morrison has vowed never to sacrifice Australia’s economy on the altar of climate extremism. While Labor’s hardline climate warriors tear their Party in two, Mr Morrison made clear this week that technology, and not taxation, would be the sole driver for reducing emissions.
