Australia had a culture, an Australian culture. A culture shaped by our history, language, institutions, customs, and shared Christian foundation. Here's a brief overview how this was deliberately sabotaged through multiculturalism policy.

Parents, not bureaucrats, are responsible for teaching their children how to navigate the online world. Safety comes from education, parental tools, and platform responsibility, not from social media bans, mass surveillance and mandatory ID checks.

Australia lacks, at a national level, entrenched protections of freedom of speech. Our role as elected representatives should be to provide and sustain that right.

New laws lower the threshold for hate speech to such an extent that a person could be criminalised for what authorities decide their words "might" lead to. This is a bad law. It is anti-free speech and anti-Australian.

Even a cursory reading of Australian history makes it clear that at Federation, Australia was Christian in culture, law, and demography. Our Constitution wasn’t written to ensure that Australia was secular; it was written by Christians, from a Christian country, to protect the church from the state.

If Americans can ditch the Woke left and embrace liberty, merit, and common sense, then so too can the rest of the world, including Australia. The importance of Donald Trump’s inauguration as the 47th President of the United States is impossible to overstate.

Not too long ago, I witnessed something that truly made me uneasy. I saw firsthand the decline of democracy. The Senate passed 32 pieces of legislation without so much as even a debate on them. The Upper House, charged with being a house of review, has become a rubber stamp.

Multiculturalism doesn’t work. It is a failed experiment. If we really care about our country – and the migrants who find refuge here – we will do all we can to preserve the unique Australian culture that made this country so attractive to them in the first place.

With 80,000 regulations costing $110 billion a year, Australia’s businesses are suffocating under red tape. Trimming just 1% could unleash over $1 billion in fresh economic growth, according to a new report. But does Jim Chalmers have the courage?

Many mock Christianity while tweeting from a civilisation that owes its success to it. Here’s the truth they don’t want to hear: Western civilisation was built on Christian values. We reject that to our detriment.

We already have laws against harassment, threats and vandalism. What exactly does a new 'anti-hate' taskforce offer that existing legislation does not? A fresh opportunity to monitor, label, and suppress ideas that stray from the state-approved narrative.

Australia is in the midst of a massive identity crisis. If we want to protect everything great about Australia, then we must protect and defend our Christian identity. It is precisely because Australia is a Christian country that not every Australian has to be a Christian.

This Bill — which would alter the Australian Constitution to enshrine free speech protections — is urgently needed to protect a fundamental right that Australians assume they already have.

As a beacon for the entire planet, whatever happens in the US inevitably happens across the free world. If Americans can ditch the woke left and embrace liberty, merit and common sense, then so too can the rest of the world change — including Australia.

Recommendations by the Australian Law Reform Commission on Religious Discrimination (ALRC) represent an egregious attack on people of faith in our country and must be rejected.

The Prime Minister must intervene to stop the ACT government’s takeover of a Catholic hospital and assure Christians that their institutions are safe. The ACT government’s unprecedented decision to take over Calvary Public Hospital sets a dangerous precedent that should worry all Christian organisations. If [...]
