  • Christian Porter’s Famous Victory

    That the demoted attorney-general would claim a triumph in the resolution of his libel action against the ABC is understandable. His political career has been, if not wrecked, certainly shunted into a siding, there is to be no vindication nor reversal of calumnies, and his ABC tormenters remain defiantly and loudly unchastened

  • The March for Injustice

    One would like to think our politicians are keen to combat all forms of domestic violence, regardless of gender, age and ethnicity.

  • How the High Court Redefined ‘Absolutely’

  • The Unique Discrimination White Men Face

    To maintain white men are more favoured than any other racial/gender group is to ignore that they are much less likely to receive the protection of the law, more inclined to take their own lives and, generally, much less socially successful than almost any other ethnic-social group

  • First They Came for Victorians

    The sad reality is that Victorians have been miserably betrayed by their federal and state governments in many ways and on many levels. Premier Andrews is a leader of authoritarian inclinations and, to its shame, the Morrison government has tacitly consented to the deplorable oppression being visited 24/7 on that unfortunate state's population
