Dial M for Maunder

  • 19th May 2014
icons/chat Created with Sketch. Comments (0)

The sun affects climate? Who would have thought it! Not the high priests of catastropharianism, who remain astonishly determined to ignore the influence of that big red ball of pulsing, flaming gas on global temperatures — a point Quadrant Online contributor David Archibald makes in a guest post at Watts Up With That….

They want us to pay their fees

If one is to judge by the reception accorded Julie Bishop at Sydney Uiversity, the real problem with education in Australia is that their is far too much of it

WAS it only a year ago that Team Rudd occupied the government benches? Actually, it wasn’t. Back then it was noted home renovator and power-of-attorney drafter Julia Gillard who was leading the nation, but Rudd was waiting and plotting and scheming and preparing to demonstrate how a real PM goes about the nation’s business. Out […]

PARENTS, be prepared! One day your child may share an ambition to make a career in journalism, perhaps even to study at the feet of the great scholars who impart their insights and experience via Australia’s tertiary institutions — stellar talents like the grammatically innovative Wendy Bacon or Melbourne University’s Margaret Simons, hoax-enabler, Malcolm Fraser’s […]

The Budget Reply

  • 14th May 2014
icons/chat Created with Sketch. Comments (0)

AFTER much bally-hoo and to the accompaniment of knees, mostly left ones, knocking in terror, Treasurer Joe Hockey has finally revealed where the state will spend stupendous sums and from whom and how it proposes to extract them. The ABC has been less-than-minimally trimmed, the arts crowd will barely see the scissors and middle-class welfare […]

At Fairfax, misery loves company

  • 9th May 2014

You may not have noticed, The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age being the sort of publications sensible people no longer read, but Fairfax Media’s journalists went all bolshie over the past few days and walked off the job. It was a display of curious logic: Its old media circulation and revenues are tanking, so […]

Where do you stand?

  • 7th May 2014
icons/chat Created with Sketch. Comments (0)

Senator-elect David Leyonhjelm is about to get an expanded education, especially in the ways of the Canberra press. As the Senate’s sole Liberal Democrat and its only avowed libertarian, he’ll be such an oddity when  sworn in that existing media templates won’t quite fit. Indeed, you can almost hear the little cogs whirring in frustration […]

History that really is bunk

  • 5th May 2014
icons/chat Created with Sketch. Comments (0)

Gross errors of fact, ideologically tinted misrepresentations of the past, the mis-identification of historical figures — welcome to the tosh being fed to schoolchildren by the educational establishment. If Johnny can’t grasp how the past shapes the present and future, blame his textbooks. In the May edition of Quadrant, now on sale, Stephanie Forrest chronicles […]

  • 14th April 2014
icons/chat Created with Sketch. Comments (0)

In bemoaning Tony Abbott’s decision to restore Imperial honours, a stunned and baffled commentariat overlooked two things. First, the move was needed to rectify a long-standing anomaly. Second, and more important, very few Australians share the outrage that engulfed left-canted newsrooms and think tanks. David Flint explains….

A Sunday roasting…

  • 13th April 2014
icons/chat Created with Sketch. Comments (0)

The existence of God is a possibility that has seen chins wagged and brows furrowed for quite some centuries, with the latest wave of assaults on theism attracting a crew of particularly sneering and acerbic sloganeers. If the much-feted and showcased ABC guest Richard Dawkins springs immediately to mind, hold that mental image while reading […]
