It has recently been reported in the ABC that Nathan Maynard, a Tasmanian Aboriginal ‘artist’ (I think we should use the word loosely) is seeking the body of an Australian of British descent which will “speak to sacrifice for past sins”. Maynard placed the ad [...]

The approach taken by Labor and the Coalition towards the referendum on an Indigenous Voice to Parliament is a case study in how the politics of blame works in Australia. Both major parties have adopted separate political strategies leading into the referendum, diminishing the chances [...]

The Cambridge Dictionary states that “treaty” is “a written agreement between two or more countries, formally approved and signed by their leaders”. The Collins English Dictionary says, “A treaty is a written agreement between countries in which they agree to do a particular thing or [...]

The Howard Government refused to issue an apology to Indigenous Australians in 2002 despite recommendations in a milestone report, primarily because it would have implied present-day generations were responsible for atrocities to generations of the past. In cabinet minutes from 2002 released by the National [...]

The more Prime Minister Anthony Albanese talks about the Voice referendum as being a fait accompli, the more suspicions he risks raising among everyday Australians about what exactly is attempted at being changed. Voters are being told they will “feel better about themselves” when they [...]

We need The Voice! We all -- regardless of our ethnic or cultural background -- need The Voice. The Voice has the message that we all need to hear. We all need to shape our lives around what The Voice tells us. The Voice speaks [...]

The year was 1987. The band was Midnight Oil. The album was Diesel and Dust. The song was “Beds Are Burning”. The message was that White Australia ought to recompense Aboriginal Australia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNW2XkvaL6U The time has come to say fair’s fair To pay the rent, [...]

We are living in an era where social breakdown and moral decay are drawing heavily on the state's resources and collective wisdom. The elucidative bankruptcy of the state’s ‘wise men’ is being exposed, as surely as it was in the ancient empires of Egypt and [...]

I didn’t answer when my friend called the other day. I wasn’t ready to hear her apology. I was still angry and in a strange way, I was prepared to stay that way. While I was really missing the fun we shared, angry me had [...]

The Northern Territory’s Labor Chief Minister says she will not back any “race-based” intervention in besieged Alice Springs, despite the town’s two Aboriginal MPs demanding alcohol bans to curb out-of-control violence and calling the crisis a bigger priority than the Voice referendum. After weeks of [...]

Since the 1980s, there’s been an increasingly common slogan. The phrase is synonymous with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander land rights, self-determination, and sovereignty. “Always Was, Always Will Be” has become an expression of grievance and unhappiness. But does the concept fit within a Biblical [...]

Forget the division. Australia's national holiday is an opportunity for unity and forgiveness. My children say to me, “Happy Invasion Day, Dad.” But I say to them, “Happy Unity Day.” These powerful words come from Pastor James Dargin, a recognised Indigenous leader and elder in [...]

Australia Day, meant to be a joyous celebration of all that makes our nation a wonderful country to live in, has been turned into a flashpoint for annual demonstrations of resentment. For some people, this is not a happy week. I know someone who is [...]

Virtue-signalling administrators are ruining sport. I intend to spend next January in New York so that I can watch the Australian Open at a decent hour. Last night’s epic five-set match between former world number one Andy Murray and Aussie hopeful Thanasi Kokkinakis finished at [...]

1. It’s premised on the lie that Indigenous Australians have no voice to our parliaments. Our state and federal governments all have Indigenous affairs ministers that regularly liaise with many Indigenous organisations. Don’t accept the lie. The first thing you say when someone asks if [...]

Why we should say ‘no’ to the Voice. Australia’s Labor Prime Minister Albanese wants a referendum about including an Indigenous Voice to Parliament in the Australian Constitution. This is to supposedly counter “racism” and the like. While there are many lefties clamouring for this, how [...]

Charles Darwin's theory of evolution tapped into the eugenic mindset of his age. Now, we are seeing the pendulum swing to the opposite extreme in a misguided, unfair attempt to atone for the terrible errors of the past. This will neither solve the issues nor [...]

It’s going to be a significant year. In 2023, the Federal Government is going to put a referendum question to the Australian people. It will be a question -- vaguely worded and without specific detail -- about formal recognition of Aboriginal Australia and the establishment [...]

The Prime Minister hosted the Australian and South African cricket teams on Sunday at a function where he extolled the virtues of his proposed Indigenous Voice to Parliament. Albanese made his usual pitch, but it’s a no-ball since it involves appealing to emotion rather than [...]

Nine Reasons the Aboriginal Voice to Parliament is a Dud. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has promised a referendum next year to include an Indigenous Voice to Parliament in the Australian Constitution.
