AUSTRALIAN of the Year Grace Tame spoke at one of the nation-wide “Women’s March 4 Justice” rallies on Monday, calling for an end to sexual violence against women while also making a point to say that men are not the enemy. Speaking at a rally in Hobart, in the southern island state of Tasmania, Ms Tame said all woman had a story of some form of sexual violence or abuse.
MY ASSESSMENT of Donald Trump, confirmed by his superb CPAC speech, attracted a version of the elites’ current default critical race theory response: “You racist jerk”. Racist? In my youth, the front-page banner on the nation’s leading journal demanded “Australia For The White Man”. I would often be reminded of my origin even by adult strangers.
RECENT events prove how destructive and widespread cancel culture is and how intent neo-Marxist inspired activists are to rewrite history and undermine and denigrate what is best about Western civilisation and societies like Australia. The most recent example involves Adam Smith, the renowned 18th century economist and philosopher whose highly influential book The Wealth of Nations revolutionised the study of commerce and who many consider one of the leading lights of the Scottish Enlightenment.
WESTERN Australia’s Liberal Party has been electorally destroyed, its greens-embracing leader turfed from parliament and the Party replaced by the Nationals as official opposition. The Party, which had attempted outgreen Labor, now holds just two of the State’s 59 parliamentary seats, trailing both Labor (53) and the Nationals (4).
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.
BHP has fallen into line with Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s mantra that emissions reduction should occur via technology, not bankruptcy. After years of BHP plying for Green applause, its newly minted CEO Mike Henry has turfed the company’s activism and delivered record wealth instead.
OPPORTUNISTIC pro-republicans have completely misread the public mood, demanding Australia break ties with the monarchy at a time when support for Queen Elizabeth is surging.
In the wake of a nasty tell-all interview with two of the world’s most privileged “victims”, Australia’s anti-monarchist politicians scrambled to cash-in after the royal family was called racist and mean.
NSW Environment Minister Matt Kean has splashed almost $12b of taxpayer cash on his green crusade – a move described as a blatant wealth transfer.
PANICKED members of WA’s extreme Left Liberal Party have blamed faith-based candidates for their expected wipe-out on Saturday.
After defying the prime minister and committing to net zero carbon emissions a full 20 years earlier than the Greens – and promising to close half the State’s coal power stations while at it – the WA Liberals face an unprecedented routing at the March 13 election.
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.
