The burgeoning ranks of Australia's genocide scholars, advocates of a republic and the Voice and, of course, the Prime Minister have their visions of the nation they hope to leave to their children. Figuratively speaking, of course. If they really do get the Australia they want, there won’t be much left to leave

On December 6, 2022, a forty-five-year-old woman was arrested in Birmingham, England—on suspicion of praying. She was silently standing on a public footpath in the vicinity of a provider of abortion services. The police asked her if she was “part of a protest”, to which she answered “No”.

If India really were hostile to the free practice of religion, as a Pew survey claims, it would raise legitimate concerns, including unfortunate geopolitical implications. But democratic countries should not allow themselves to be set against each other by spurious allegations feeding on mutual ignorance.

Here's why the post-Christian proponents of the West’s new woke religion push their agenda with the full fiery force of Abrahamic fervour. No Ayatollah or Salafi Imam ever laid down the law with more self-righteousness than the Woollahra Municipal Council. God speaks directly to them, as surely as He speaks to Greta

To get them off their backs, both Liberals and Labor have offered the privileged intellectuals of the Aboriginal Industry what amounts to an endless cascade of sit-down money. Meanwhile, the voices of existing and far more representative indigenous bodies are shunned. Canada's First Nations won't tolerate the imposters and self-promoters. Australia's land councils would do well to follow their example

Abolitionists, suffragists, prohibitionists, indigenous rights advocates, LGBTQIA+ advocates and climate catastrophists alike have viewed and continue to view their moral agendas as being above mere human law and act accordingly, imposing their will on the majority. This is dangerous, and it is up to all who recognise the peril to hasten the demise of this tyranny of the minority

One suspects—it might not be stretching intuition too far to say that one knows—that the most vociferous opponents of an elected Indigenous Voice would be the unelected intelligentsia currently purporting to speak for indigenous Australians. Allowing that the Yes case gets up, only the ballot box can confirm the resulting assembly's legitimacy

It's the story of the year, it's unfolding entirely in public view, anyone could milk it—and only Fox is covering it. Twitter CEO Elon Musk passed a horde of internal e-mails to freelance journalist Matt Taibbi, documenting the platform's extraordinary efforts to suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story, and Taibbi returned the favor by publishing the best bits on Twitter
