As a Liberal Party supporter, I often wonder whether it will help if I beg.
Beg the Commonwealth and State party leaders to forget politics and begin to lead like classic conservative leaders. We need clarity from the leaders that:
• With 8 senators and 3 members in Parliament being Aboriginal, come out strongly and say that Australia is clearly not racist and it is a bad idea to have two tiers of people in Australia based purely on race, enshrined in the constitution.
• Teaching a "black armband view of history" of Australia to children in schools is not OK, and millions of people have immigrated to Australia precisely because Australia is a fair country with the rule of law and equality of opportunity, not equality of outcomes.
• That the ABC needs to adhere to its charter to receive even a $ of taxpayer money.
• That under a Liberal Government, civil servants will not be able to change the language in government documents to state that gender is something assigned at birth and not determined by nature.
• That it is not OK for boys to compete against girls in sports and enter their bathrooms simply because they choose to identify as girls,
• That there is no need to destroy the Australian economy to placate the climate radicals. A policy of 0 by 2023 will not gain the Liberals a single vote from the left.
True conservatives should use the UK example where everyone rejoiced at the fact the final group of candidates was a mixture of races and genders and an example of true conservative values.
Trying to placate the left in the Party did not work in the recent election, and it will not in the coming Vic and NSW elections. Australia needs leadership or we will descend into the same mess as the US. They at least have some conservative leaders who are brave enough to LEAD.
What Sujatha Fernandes is teaching young students at Sydney University is a provable lie. How can Australia ever succeed when academics at our top universities simply make things up and are allowed to get away with it.It seems that if something fits the far left's narrative, there can be no peer review because the sword of “cancellation” hangs over the heads of dissenters. This is how the myth of global warming is allowed to destroy our economy and the myth that men can have babies is allowed to destroy our morals and the lives of many of our children.People who convince our children of the lie that democratic Israelis are butchers and Hamas are simply benign folk need to be rooted out and fired.
The Trump case creates a deep disillusionment with the U.S. legal system and has destroyed any perception of truth or integrity in it.
The handling of this situation is a fundamental betrayal of the principles of impartial justice, to the point where one can no longer feel safe or confident in engaging with American institutions while the current administration is in power.
Under these circumstances, mistrust in the FBI creates a reluctance to set foot in the country. It underscores the depth of concern about the erosion of the rule of law and the politicization of the justice system. It's a stark reminder of how profoundly damaging the perception of bias and manipulation in legal proceedings can be to the social fabric and to individual faith in the government.
The loss of trust in the institutions meant to uphold justice and protect citizens' rights is a grave matter beyond any one case or political moment. It strikes at the heart of the social contract and the stability of a ...
In today's world, one of the most frightening realities is the ease with which individuals in positions of authority or those who command respect through their demeanor can deceive us without fear of repercussions. These influential figures, be they heads of universities, politicians, or journalists, seem to have no qualms about fabricating narratives that support their agenda, knowing full well that they will face no consequences for their dishonesty.
The problem is compounded by the fact that those who should be holding these individuals accountable often turn a blind eye to their deception. University administrators, for example, may choose to ignore academics who blatantly lie as long as their falsehoods serve to bolster the institution's reputation or further its goals. Similarly, politicians and journalists, despite having access to the truth through briefings and research, may opt to perpetuate lies that align with their political or ideological leanings.
The result is a culture of ...
