WHEN a senior government minister publicly complains about his own government’s inaction on a life or death issue, it’s time to hit the public panic button. After last January’s devastating bushfires claimed 25 lives and countless hectares of land across NSW, we now learn that the very politicians gifted high-powers to prevent a repeat are complaining that they’ve not done enough.
FOR all the talk of wokeness and cancel culture, it didn’t just spring out of nowhere – it has a long history. There’s no doubt politically correct woke ideology and cancel culture dominate Western societies and determine government policy, how individuals interact both privately and at work and what happens in our schools and universities.
AUSTRALIA has been warned to further ramp up defence planning as China utilises aggression to mask its economic decline. Faced with halved economic growth, a collapsing workforce, uncontained debt and political restlessness, experts have warned the Chinese Communist Party is in a world of pain and “unpredictable”.
THE politicians are ruining Australia far sooner than anyone ever expected.It was always self-evident that a lockdown of the productive sector must be a last resort. The first was completely unjustified. It has, without explanation, morphed from “flattening the curve” to preventing hospital crowding to eradication, which is impossible.
TOO many politicians seemingly embrace the moral low ground with almost every ethical decision laid before them. Whether its sexualising pre-teens in the classroom, giving the nod to late term abortions, watering down bestiality laws or allowing HIV-infected people to “hide” their condition from bed partners – they almost always manage to defile themselves.
WITH an ALP break-up being openly discussed, the Liberal Party risks having its own voter base ravaged by a sensible centrist Labor offshoot.
As Labor continues to be torn in two between its inner city socialist voters and regional working families, faction leader Joel Fitzgibbon has hinted the Party may need to split.
CATHOLIC schools teaching atheism and queer gender theory are in “dangerous territory” and risk losing public funding according to a senior NSW MP. The Catholic Education Diocese of Parramatta this week announced atheism and LGBTQ identity theory were to be included in its 2021 religious curriculum.
WHEN a commercial media outlet engages in a serious and unacceptable breach of ethical standards, the solution is simple. Turn it off or don’t read it. Where this is a public broadcaster, reforming its governance, even questioning its very existence, must follow. Above all, such a broadcaster must never engage with an alien foreign power to abuse the prestige and authority entrusted to it.
ULTRA-Left NSW MP Matt Kean has suggested he is the future of the Liberal Party – and not conservatives such as Menzies, Howard or Abbott.
In what could only be described as a self-congratulatory piece in Friday’s Australian Financial Review, the NSW minister spoke of his government-supplied Tesla, his Greens Party agenda as well as his disapproval of former PM Tony Abbott. He also provided a glimpse of his deep dislike for US President Donald Trump.
NSW One Nation Leader Mark Latham has described Christianity as a punching bag for “sneering bigots” as long-promised religious freedom laws were shelved by the Australian parliament. In response to Canberra’s anti-religion posture, Mr Latham has introduced similar legislation into the NSW Parliament and is furiously working with MPs across Party lines to see it passed.
