Horace Rumpole and Atticus Finch, You’re No Longer Needed

  • Peter Smith
  • 7th March 2021

MinterEllison's CEO took it upon herself to send a comforting email to the law firm's employees, whom she blithely assumed would be dismayed to learn Christian Porter had become a client. That ignorant and ill-advised memo would be deeply shocking were it not a reflection of the sadly familiar spirit of an era in which mob rule so often trumps the rule of law

Wikipedia? They Should Call it ‘Wicked-pedia’

You might encounter accuracy if consulting the online encyclopedia about, say, Footscray's 1954 premiership. But any topic that remotely challenges the Left and its narratives, forget about it. Not only will you be banned, as I have been, you'll be blitzed with slanders and flat-out lies. And it's not just me saying that. One of the site's founders says so too

Good Reason to be Sceptical of Skeptics

  • Phil Shannon

Diligently refuting ‘alternative health’ charlatans was what the Skeptics once deemed their flint-eyed duty, but along came COVID and the tune changed to an immediate and unquestioning support for lockdowns. Bear in mind that RN's Phillip Adams is a prominent member and you'll have an idea how much credence they deserve

My Growing Sense of Disappointment

Yes, Morrison & Co are better than Team Albo, but that's not saying much. Meanwhile, in regard to the economy and freedom-related issues, this Coalition government has spent the pandemic mimicking a soft socialist one.  Who voted for that?

How the High Court Redefined ‘Absolutely’

  • Augusto Zimmermann
  • 4th March 2021

In bowing to WA Premier Mark McGowan's wish that the Commonwealth withdraw from Clive Palmer's bid to reopen the state's borders, the PM stands condemned for an appalling dereliction of duty to uphold the Constitution. That left the High Court to ignore history and the clear meaning of words in a decision that would have sickened the Founding Fathers

A Minister’s Choice: Grovel or Go ‘Em?

If he is lucky, Christian Porter will limp away, secure for the moment in his job but with the reek of suspicion and smear destined to dog him ever after. Come the next Cabinet shuffle, he'll be damaged goods fit only to be shunted sideways or out. Of course, if he has the spine, he might choose to give as good as he gets

The Wisdom in Knowing What We Don’t Know

  • Peter Arnold
  • 3rd March 2021

The truth about much regarding the COVID-19 epidemic is that there is no knowledge. We do know what the virus does, and how it kills people. But why isn't the virus killing entire families, as did the Spanish Flu of a century ago. Alas, strapped for facts and pressed for sound bytes, that isn't crimping 'expert' commentary

A Lockdown Sceptic Abroad

  • James Allan

After observing Britain's panicdemic at close quarters, two things are as clear as the mask on your face. One: never again let public health doctors have this sort of power and influence. Two: those without skin in the game make the worst decisions. Politicians who claim ‘we’re all in this together’ are uttering flat-out lies

Disembodied Voices: Spirits in a Material World

Talking about demons and angels outside church is scarcely respectable at all. But on the other side of a world in darkness there is light and an enchanted world of saints and heroes, and countless acts of love. Humanity has been living with its demons and its angels for a very long time

Intellectual Humility vs. Passionate Certainty

  • Declan Mansfield

Redemption is absent from the woke catechism, an omission that sees your modern-day Jacobins celebrate each other's morality when destroying the lives and reputations of others. As Aristotle noted, all putative virtues must have their have a dark sides, and just now the gloom deepens by the day
