The Voice

In Praise of Division and Hard-Ball Politics

  • Peter Smith
  • 17th September 2023

Even if it could be established that disadvantaged Aboriginal people would benefit from the Voice, what about all other Australians? Would they benefit from paying reparations, from having their country geographically and racially split asunder? Fortunately, the main parties are poles apart, which has meant we have that rarest of things, a full-blown, hotly contested debate

In Defence of the Narrative, Facebook Stands Ready

  • David Barton
  • 16th September 2023

A false claim was made on Insiders which the national broadcaster subsequently 'clarified', but its mere utterance was enough to see Facebook reach for the blue pencil. For more than a month that followed, a Melbourne businessman's page opposing the Voice was hobbled and its reach curtailed. Big Tech's arrogant wokeists had struck again

Whose Voice is it Anyway?

It’s clear from the words on the cover of Megan Davis and Pat Anderson's newly published insider account of the road to the Voice referendum-- The authorised story of the community campaign that changed Australia -- that their book was conceived in happier times for the ‘Yes’ campaign. That would be before it became expedient to pretend the Uluru Statement is but a single page

The Death of the Humanities, the Death of the University

  • Simon Kennedy

If Australian Catholic University is abandoning the humanities ship, which certainly appears to be the case, the end is nigh for universities. Readers might scoff that these research fellows and professors can take their medicine because they are all lefties anyway. But that is a shallow sentiment. Instead, we should be mourning the passing of the true university, which was built around the humanities

Donald Trump in 2024? An exchange

  • Christopher Carr & Roger Franklin
  • 14th September 2023
icons/chat Created with Sketch. Comments (11)

Christopher Carr: The Trump-Biden Double Negative In a previous article I argued that Alvin Bragg’s New York indictment against Donald Trump over payments to “Stormy” Daniels was an integral part of the cunning Democrat plan to rile the Republican base and ensure the nomination of Trump as the GOP candidate in 2024. Thus would ensue […]

Leigh Sales’ Accidental Exposé

The ABC host has set out to explain journalism, but how can anyone take seriously a book that hails the genius of the ABC cameraman who shot the broadcaster's biggest debacle of the current century? That would be 4 Corners' laughably breathless three-parter presenting Donald Trump as a urine-fixated Putin puppet. Alas, there is no chapter on the obligation to apologise and correct

Three Cheers for Marcia Langton & Co

  • Timothy Cootes
  • 13th September 2023
icons/chat Created with Sketch. Comments (27)

Don't be too upset when Professor Langton brands you 'racist' or 'stupid', which appears to be a favourite hobby. When it comes to alienating the most voters with the fewest words, she has undoubtedly been one of the most effective assets of the ‘No’ campaign

Indigenous Australians Deserve a Democratic Voice

  • Salvatore Babones
  • 12th September 2023
icons/chat Created with Sketch. Comments (12)

Ascertaining community wishes via secret balloting is the way of democracies, but that is not the mechanism the Calma-Langton blueprint for the Voice envisions. Their two models involve unelected regional potentates selecting who goes to Canberra, or they would meet behind closed doors to select them, with no community voting involved. Tellingly, they opted for the latter

The Great Australian Bite

  • John Mikkelsen
  • 12th September 2023

Why is it acceptable for one or two species to regularly claim human lives, while another toothy troublemaker is hunted down and killed after what might be little more than a nip? Whatever the logic that grants sharks, crocodiles and snakes a free pass should they get peckish or irate, such mercy has been denied Fraser Island's dingoes. Well, one of them anyway
