Watch: Australian National University scraps study of Western civilisation, while retaining a Centre for Islamic Studies and a course on Gender in German Culture
The Australian National University in Canberra has dumped plans to introduce a degree on ‘Western civilisation.’ The Ramsey Centre, chaired by former prime minister John Howard, was to offer 40 scholarships in the first two years of the program. According to The Australian, “The backdown follows intervention by the National Tertiary Education Union and the Australian National University Student Association, which had claimed the program would push a ‘racist’ and ‘radically conservative agenda’.” Rowan Dean on The Outsiders explained: “This is the same university that has a Centre for Islamic Studies, a Centre for Indigenous Studies, offers a Bachelor of…
Peter FitzSimons: ‘If James Slipper chooses to take cocaine… it’s none of my damn business’
It’s obvious. Peter FitzSimons doesn’t like Israel Folau. Earlier this month the Herald columnist berated the rugby start for expressing a biblical view of sexuality on his personal social media accounts. “I am GOBSMACKED by your actions,” FitzSimons wrote. “Your delusions, your arrogance, the sheer stupidity, not to mention venality of posting such a link.” “You are embarrassing yourself,” FitzSimons continued. “And your posts are embarrassing rugby. We need to get to the point soon where you are only embarrassing yourself.” Now, in a remarkable display of hypocrisy, Peter FitzSimons has told Channel Nine’s Sunday Sports panel that it’s none…
Council plans on installing female only pedestrian crossing symbols as current genderless figures don’t help improve gender equality
A council in Victoria has plans to “improve gender equality” by introducing female only pedestrian crossing symbols. Brimbank Council’s request comes after Melbourne’s city centre installed 10 female pedestrian lights last year. Mayor Margaret Giudice told the Herald Sun, changing the generic, genderless figure would “show women and girls that they are important and valued in our community.” Watch:
Safe access zones: ‘they are designed to stop advocates for life from offering assistance to desperate women who feel pressured to abort their children’
Abortion activists are at it again, attempting to introduce bubble-zones around New South Wales abortion facilities. As stated many times on this website, these so-called ‘safe-access zones’, also known as exclusion zones, are designed to stop advocates for life from offering assistance to desperate women who feel pressured to abort their children. They also hamper the freedom of political communication which should exist in a free society like Australia. They also hamper the freedom of political communication which should exist in a free society like Australia. Exclusion-zone law, very similar to that being proposed in New South Wales will be…
Science is for bigots! Queensland politician asked: ‘Is it OK to identify you as a male?’
“Political correctness in Australia has gone bonkers.” So said Queensland politician Jarrod Bleijie. The Member for Kawana tweeted on Monday, “I just phoned MyGov to change my address. After giving my personal details I was asked ‘and is it ok to identify you as a male?’” “Now the gov is asking born males if we will get offended by calling us males,” the State Opposition frontbencher continued. “This political correctness BS has gone way too far!” *checks file* sorry, we got that wrong. You'll be identified as your correct gender, Snivelling Manbaby, from now on. — Jenny Noyes (@jennynoise) May…
ABC wastes $1,555 a MINUTE producing Yassmin Abdel-Magied’s pro-Islamic fashion show
The ABC has admitted it spent $1,555 a MINUTE to produce Yassmin Abdel-Magied’s pro-Islamic show about Muslim fashion. This comes a week after it was revealed the national broadcaster gave their highest paid employees more than $2.5 million in tax payer funded bonuses. As the Left lament the recent $80 million funding cut, most would agree $80 million was clearly not enough. The waste continues. The ABC spent $1,555 a MINUTE to produce Muslim activist’s show In this year’s budget, the Turnbull government introduced a three-year funding freeze that slashed $84 million from the public broadcaster. It bemoaned the cuts…

Paramedics given a list of no-go zones after judge allows attackers to walk free: ‘imposing jail time would achieve little’
This is what happens when you don’t punish criminals. No punishment, no deterrent. Paramedics in Victoria have been given a list of more than 200 ‘no-go zones’ to keep them safe from potential attackers. This comes after two women were spared jail time for violently assaulting a 63-year-old paramedic. Judge Cotterell told the court, “imposing the [minimum] sentence at this stage would achieve little.” When the guilty are spared, the innocent will suffer. Watch:
Richard Dawkins’ absurd list of demands prior to interview: ‘Don’t mention Islam’
Andrew Bolt has told Richard Dawkins to ‘bugger off,’ after the renowned atheist sent a long list of absurd demands less than 2-hours before his appearance on The Bolt Report. Bolt explains: I invited him, he accepted. All good. Except 2-hours ago – less than – we started to get the first of a very long series of demands, restrictions on what we could actually talk about… ‘Don’t mention Islam specifically,’ Dawkins said. ‘I shall not appear if Islam is mentioned specifically’… Another demand, ‘don’t distinguish between Christianity and Islam’… ‘I shall not do so.’
Superheroes and Disney Princesses could be banned from schools after push to make classrooms gender-neutral
Councils across Victoria are set to review educational resources to ensure stories and experiences go beyond ‘gender stereotypical narratives,’ the Herald Sun revealed. The move follows a study by the Australian National University which suggested, educators should avoid classifying children according to gender, like ‘boy’ and ‘girl.’ Researchers found, ‘prejudice along race and gender lines can be observed’ in children as young as three-years-old. According to the study, girls who played with ‘feminised characters’, such as Barbie, had fewer career options. It was also revealed that girls who played with Disney princess toys and boys who watched superhero shows were…
Is it “hate speech” to suggest transgender material should not be recommended to children?
After it was brought to our attention that a Dymocks Bookstore was recommending transgender material to children, a number of negative reviews were left on the store’s official Facebook page. The reviews suggested that the store should not be promoting such material to children, given the fact that Australia’s Telethon Kids Institute has revealed close to 80% of trans youth had self-harmed, while almost 50% have attempted suicide. The store responded, suggesting these figures were due to lack of support in the children’s lives. It was then pointed out that even if that were the case, the store does not…

Christians could face prosecution for attempting to convert gay people
We told you it was about more than marriage. Christians who claim that homosexuality can be “fixed” could soon find themselves being prosecuted as the Victorian government orders an unprecedented inquiry into gay conversion therapy. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, the inquiry will capture registered or unregistered counsellors, as well as faith-based ministries, who treat homosexuality as a disorder, along with anyone purporting to convert LGBTI people through therapeutic means. Health Minister Jill Hennessy, who asked Victoria’s Health Complaints Commissioner to conduct the investigation, told The Age: We have zero tolerance for anyone purporting to ‘convert’ gay people through…
Greens leader Richard DiNatale says we need to change our constitution: ‘Section 44 is outdated, it’s a relic of the past’
Leader of the Greens Party, Richard DiNatale appeared on Sky News to discuss changing Section 44 of the constitution. Section 44 sets out restrictions on who can be a candidate for Federal parliament. DiNatale explains: “There is this sort of inconvenient document that governs everything that we do called the Australian constitution… What’s got to happen now is absolutely crystal clear. We’re a modern multicultural nation. We need to change our constitution and make sure that everybody has the right to stand in our nation’s parliament. Section 44 is outdated, it’s a relic of the past…” Watch: .@RichardDiNatale on changing…
Watch: Muslim gang rapist refuses to apologise to victim: ‘What am I sorry about? I’ve done my time.’
Belal Hajeid, member of the Skaf rape gang, served over 14 years in prison following attacks on two teenage girls in 2000. In June 2002, Hajeid was sentenced for 10 offenses in relation to the attacks and was released on parole in 2016. Hajeid was ordered to pay his victim $100,000 in compensation, but a tribunal later dropped that figure to $6,000. Channel 9’s A Current Affair tracked down Hajeid, now a council worker, and asked if he would apologise to the woman he raped. “Mate, what am I sorry about?” Hajeid replied. “I’ve done my time.” You can watch the full…
No Justice: Two women who assaulted a paramedic walk free after judge says jail time would achieve little
A Melbourne paramedic who was violently assaulted after attending to an unconscious man has reportedly broken down after hearing his attackers would walk free. Paul Judd, a paramedic of 40 years, needed three operations after being repeatedly punched and left with a broken foot. Two years on, the 63-year-old continues to live with pain and is unable to return to work. Mr Judd’s attackers, Amanda Warren, 33, and Caris Underwood, 20, walked free after Judge Barbara Cotterell quashed the sentences on appeal, deciding the women should not serve the mandatory minimum. Two drunken women who bashed a paramedic as he…
ABC gives highest paid employees more than $2.5 million in tax-payer funded bonuses
“Save our ABC!” We’ve all heard the cry since the Federal Budget announced ABC funding would be cut by more than $80 million. Remember when Pauline Hanson said she wanted the Turnbull Govt to cut to the ABC, well last night the Prime Minister delivered just that. The Budget last night includes a whopping $83m cut to ABC funding #SaveOurABC — Sarah Hanson-Young? (@sarahinthesen8) May 9, 2018 But that hasn’t stopped the national broadcaster from handing out millions in tax-payer funded bonuses to more than 200 staff members. Some employees are receiving as much as $70,000, according to the Herald Sun.…
Mark Latham: The radical left-wing attack on Western civilisation
This article was originally published on Mark Latham’s Outsiders. I worry that Australia is sleep walking its way to disaster. Political correctness, identity politics and cultural Marxism have run through our institutions at an astonishing rate. There’s not enough public awareness of where these changes have come from and what they mean for the future. Media headlines focus on each controversy in isolation. But we need to understand the overall pattern. The Left has launched a cultural invasion of Australia based on the concept of ‘fluidity’. Everything we thought was fixed in our understanding of the world – such as…
Dymocks Bookstore is now promoting transgenderism to children
Dymocks Bookstore in Chermside, Queensland is now promoting transgenderism to children. Located in the Children’s Non-Fiction section is a book titled, Trans-Mission: My Quest to a Beard, by Alex Bertie. Attached to the book is a sign that reads, “Recommended by our well-read team.” The note from Dymocks’ staff goes on to explain: Trans-Mission – Alex Bertie, is a book written by Alex himself as he explains his story about his own gender transition. It’s light-hearted and easy to read. A great way to explain being transgender to someone else, and a great way to help those transitioning as well. Photos courtesy…
What if homophobia isn’t the reason why LGBTQ people are more likely to commit suicide?
The National LGBTI Health Alliance has said, “LGBTI people have 3.5 to 14 times higher rates of suicide than the general population.” It’s often claimed that the increased suicide rate among LGBTQ people is due to homophobia and stigmatization. In the following video, Big Deal examines that claim, pointing out that while in the past 30 years stigmatization has dropped substantially, this has had little to no impact on suicide rates. If stigmatization was the cause, shouldn’t the suicide rate drop as stigmatization decreases? What if, in an attempt to stamp out “homophobia,” we’re missing something else? What if people…
