After just a day on the job, new Essendon Bombers CEO Andrew Thorburn was pressured out of his role because of his unacceptable beliefs. His beliefs have been called not “compatible with leadership”.

That was a really fast case of anti-religious bigotry. Within 24 hours, Andrew Thorburn stepped down from his dream job as CEO of Essendon Football Club in Melbourne. Well, that did not take long. A brand new CEO has been forced out in record-breaking time. [...]

Dilbert's jibe at transracialism has triggered those quick to hurl accusations of transphobia. Scott Adams’ comic strip Dilbert is hugely popular for its quirky depiction of office culture, poking fun at bumbling bureaucracy. Published since 1989, in 2013 it achieved a daily reach of 2,000 [...]

While Democrats label Republicans as "domestic terrorists" for supporting Trump and claim that non-politically correct statements amount to violence, they turn a blind eye to actual violent terrorism by pro-choice group Jane's Revenge firebombing pregnancy crisis centres. The Left’s domestic terrorism double standard is another [...]

The inaugural Tim Fischer Oration was delivered last month by former Deputy Prime Minister John Anderson, one of the finest and most decent people I have ever had the pleasure to meet. This is also one of the greatest orations I have come across in [...]

Delivered by The Hon. John Anderson AC FTSE The Great Hall, Parliament House 18 August 2022 ~~~ I first met Tim Fischer in 1984 when I was 28 and he was 37. I was struck by his wide-ranging curiosity, genuine interest in others, and his [...]

The rise of the so-called gender-affirmation industry and its relationship with children is one of the most important stories of our time. Under the guise of science, we are being told that toddlers can know that they have been ‘born in the wrong bodies’. Under [...]

This new document on the limits of the state is very important indeed. Around the globe, people are beginning to wake up to the rise of totalitarianism -- within the West. Many have long suspected it, some have warned about it, but the Covid outbreak [...]

Transgender orthodoxy is stifling free speech. On a Zoom call in November 2020, Cathy Boardman showed her cultural studies class two pictures: one of a white performer appearing in “blackface”; the other of a drag queen, with a caption asking, “What about ‘womanface’?” There was [...]

Secular attempts to force inclusivity upon everyone are anything but inclusive. Why is this so? Let us examine the underlying assumptions of this totalitarian worldview. Inclusivity has become a hot topic of conversation since the Manly Sea Eagles Pride Jersey Saga. The Manly NRL club [...]

Rugby Australia has threatened to ban a football fan for yelling abuse at England coach Eddie Jones on Sunday night. Next thing you know, they will ban star players for quoting the Bible. Oh wait. They already did that. A fan yelled, “You’re a traitor,” [...]

The James Webb Space Telescope is making waves in more ways than expected. Those with an intense victim mentality, swiftly aggravated by contrary opinions, seek to erase any trace of people who disagree with them -- even people who are long dead. News services featured [...]

The bullying of women: the social media mob took no time at all to 'correct' Macy Gray on her definition of a woman, forcing her to recant biological truth. How powerful is cancel culture? Ask singer Macy Gray. Just 72 hours after telling Sky News [...]

Atheists are cheering at the drop in religious affiliation in our nation. However, with Christians becoming a minority, those who have abandoned faith in God have embraced faith in other things -- in modern ideologies. Australian census data released yesterday shows that -- for the [...]
