THE American academic and author Camille Paglia in her book Free Women Free Men published in 2017 provides a scathing condemnation of “the plague of political correctness”. While there’s no doubt cultural-Left ideology, language control and group think now dominate across Western societies there is every hope sanity and reason might yet prevail.
LIBERAL governments have been so overrun by activist MPs they’re incapable of protecting Australian children from “abusive” indoctrination. Critical race theory, gender fluidity, climate alarmism and renewables propaganda is now awash through Australian education, government departments and corporations while current-crop Liberal parliamentarians either cheer – or stay fearfully silent.
EARLIER this month there was an important presentation by prominent Sydney silk Margaret Cunneen SC. She was speaking at The Presumption of Guilt Conference run by the Rule of Law Education Centre. As many know, Ms Cunneen is a woman with impeccable credentials to comment on the criminal justice system. She has spent well over 30 years at the coalface, decades as a crown prosecutor convicting some of our most prominent rapists and other villains and then, as a commissioner in charge of a large child abuse investigation.
IF YOU listen to two of the ABC’s Sydney radio stations, national and local, they regularly report a 1°C difference in the city’s temperature. But at noon on Saturday June 19, one station declared it was 15°C, immediately followed by the other saying it was 12°C, without any of those qualifications about this being how it felt.
IF AT first you don’t succeed, as the saying goes…Feminist Louise Milligan, the ABC’s attack-dog, came up short in the end with her anti-Pell campaign.
EXASPERATED voters are increasingly questioning changes to Australia’s Marriage Act as Malcolm Turnbull’s prized social re-engineering policy dangerously divides the nation. With homosexual rights activists – both inside and outside parliament – progressively trampling mainstream values, a growing number of once-sympathetic Australians are finding their voice.
MELBOURNE University is set to finalise its new “Gender Affirmation Policy,” which will ban speeches, behaviours, or activities suspected of posing “potential harm” to transgender people at the university. When enacted, the policy will allow people claiming transgender rights to choose any bathroom facilities that most closely align with the gender they identify with.
EFFORTS to expel up to 550 conservative Liberal members have been shelved after the sneaky plot by Left-wing Party elites was publicly exposed. Centre-right Liberals have been discreetly routed by the Party hierarchy for years and have been pushed out, if not from the Party itself then from almost every senior political position. Tony Abbott being among the most high-profile to be viciously shafted.
EXTREMIST Liberal MPs have told federal Attorney-General Michaelia Cash that religious freedom comes a distant second to the distinct rights of homosexuals. While the once socially conservative Liberal Party continues its hard lurch to the Left, its Greens-influenced social agenda is being force-fed to all Australians – without so much as a political argument.
RADICAL Liberal Senator Andrew Bragg has publicly rejected safeguards for children accessing irreversible sex change operations. Responding to efforts by One Nation this week to protect children younger than 18 from undergoing genital-mutilation procedures, the NSW senator instead chose to side with Labor and The Greens.
