I was waiting in the foyer of a multinational oil and gas company’s Australian headquarters, the twenty-seventh floor of a high-rise in Brisbane. There was plenty to look at while I waited. Artful displays of early-era petrol bowsers acknowledged the past, and a...
“The first person to speak in court always seems right until his opponent begins to question him.” We should hold onto this profound wisdom which is the foundation of the right to examine witnesses. It is found in the Good Book at Proverbs 18:17. The capacity to test...
As a medical practitioner I am privy to just about all permutations and combinations of positions on COVID the disease, the various COVID vaccines available, and the effect of COVID vaccine mandates on people’s lives, both in the workforce and in the public. It is...

De-fanging our broken anti-discrimination laws is the answer to freedom of religion and freedom of speech in Australia, not putting lipstick on a pig. The big lie of the Yes campaign for same-sex marriage was that no one else’s freedoms would be messed with. It’s...
Irrational fear is quite something to behold. I continue to be amazed by how many fully vaccinated Australians remain ‘so terrified’ of the unvaccinated that they have demanded workplaces sack them. That’s right, the person you sat next to for eight years is suddenly...
Limited Government and Civil Disobedience in the Western Legal Tradition The idea that laws must protect the basic rights of the individual was first advocated by medieval scholars, then reshaped by the likes of John Locke and Thomas Jefferson, and then invoked in the...
Chaos reigns at the Belarusian-Polish border where thousands of Middle Eastern migrants are trying to hack their way through border fences. They are armed with axes, wire-cutters and shovels which they use to destroy the forest, setting up campsites supported by the...

The Australian Medical Association (AMA) provides us with a sneak peek of the woke dystopia the world is heading for. When Victorian President of the AMA Dr Roderick McRae said that "anti-vaxxers" should withdraw themselves from the public hospital system and "let...

If we take mainstream media as gospel, American elections are Vladimir Putin’s plaything. He installs presidents like oligarchs parade yachts, boasting about his latest model on the way to climate-champagne-get-togethers. At least, that’s what CNN thinks. You can...
Identity politics is intellectual bludging.I did a quick search to make sure I was using that correctly and: yep, I am. To bludge is to shirk responsibility and live off the efforts of others.But before I point the finger at the usual perpetrators of identity politics...
With the end of Gladys Berejiklian’s reign as Premier of NSW comes a new era, one that will centre on a man named Dominic Perrottet. Perrottet, who has to this point been the Treasurer of the State, has emerged as the strongest contender for the Premiership, a...
Every eight minutes, Australia records a cybercrime. In total, 67,500 cybercrimes were reported last year. One assumes others go unreported. None of us is immune from this criminal activity. Last year these attacks increased by 13%. It costs us. Lots. $33 billion last...
