Elon Musk recently eviscerated the career of James Clayton in a live TV interview. It makes for a gasp-out-loud, compelling viewing in a train wreck kind of way. Not since Cathy Newman infamously took on Jordan Peterson, has a journalist from the BBC been schooled [...]

Moria Deeming has been suspended from the Victorian Liberal Party for nine months. Her crime? For helping to organise a rally recently -- Let Women Speak! -- which was gatecrashed by neo-Nazis. Just to be clear, neither Deeming nor the other keynote speaker, Posey Parker, [...]

Just when you think all hope is lost for the Victorian Liberal Party to ever regain its conservative political roots, along comes a candidate like Moira Deeming. Deeming is the type of grassroots politician the luvvies love to hate; young, articulate, passionate, and an ex-progressive. Which is [...]

The NT parliament is currently considering amending the Anti-Discrimination Act so as to end an existing provision that allows “religious educational institutions to discriminate against staff based on their sexuality”.
