According to the Sydney Morning Herald, this is the first time a minister has used such powers in more than a decade. On Twitter Labor Senator for Victoria, Kim Carr said, “last time this happened was by Brendan Nelson.” However, in Carr’s next tweet he went on to call Birmingham’s actions “unprecedented.” “The former Minister has interfered with Australia’s peer review system,” Carr tweeted. “Is it because he did not like the topics, the…

Telescope Media Group is a Christian film company based in Minnesota. It’s a small family business, run by husband and wife team, Carl and Angel Larsen. Their company tagline reads, “We want to magnify Christ like a telescope.” Last year, a Minnesota court ruled that the couple were in violation of the state’s Human Rights Act which requires them to abandon their faith by using their services to create films celebrating homosexuality and same-sex marriage. According to the Alliance Defending Freedom, “State officials have categorically, publicly, and repeatedly threatened to prosecute expressive business owners who decline to create speech promoting…

With politicians like these, who needs enemies? So often in the West we find people of power and influence claiming to represent the peoples’ best interest, but in actual fact, they’re doing the exact opposite. The following footage was taken February 19, 2012 during a public townhall meeting at the Islamic Society of Orange County in California. Congresswoman Maxine Waters offered a speech, criticizing opposition to the implementation of Sharia Law calling it anti-Muslim bigotry. “It was important to recognize what’s really going on, on these anti-Sharia laws,” Waters said. “They’re motivated by anti-Muslim bigotry, plain and simple.” “Sharia equals…

In September the European Union voted to strip Hungary of its voting rights in retaliation for their anti-immigration policies. Hungarian Foreign Minister, Peter Szijjarto told CBN News, “Basically it’s revenge. The European parliament has a majority of MEPs who are pro-migration, absolutely pro-migration. “And since the Hungarian government has proven in the last three and a half years that migration is a negative phenomenon, migration is dangerous, and migration can and must be stopped, this annoys the majority of the members of the European parliament. This annoys the bureaucrats in Brussels. This annoys the European commission…” Szijjarto went on to…

Tommy Robinson has slammed the BBC and fake news media in a speech delivered to thousands of supporters gathered outside the Old Bailey yesterday. “If we went and found members of the British public and they met me, they’d shake my hand and tell me to carry on going,” Robinson said. “If you told them that you work for the BBC, you’d get a completely different response to what I get. You wish to try and portray that I am hated, whereas in reality, it’s you that are hated. “You have lied, you have played your part, and all of…

Tasmania is set to become the first state to remove gender from birth certificates in a move to appease transgender activists. According to The Australian, a vote is expected in Tasmania’s lower house next month, as amendments to a bill ending the need for trans people to divorce before they can change their gender on official documents. Amendments also include removing the need for trans people to have sex-change surgery before switching genders. The Australian Christian Lobby said the amendments essentially abolished gender, further “homogenised humanity” and “greatly diminished” the significance of birth certificates. Lyle Shelton from the Australian Conservatives…

“Let me control the textbooks and I will control the state.” This quote has often been attributed to Adolf Hitler. Whether or not he said it is beside the point. As sinister as it sounds, it’s widely held that, “he alone, who owns the youth, gains the future.” Educating children is an investment, and there are many fighting to invest in your children today in order to further their causes tomorrow. So, what are we allowing them to put into their textbooks? What sort of state, what sort of future, are we allowing them to create? And what are we…

Ryan Saavedra from the Daily Wire explains: “Not sure what fairy tale this is supposed to be, but since Kristen Bell brought up Snow White, let’s assume it’s her or Sleeping Beauty.” “Per Disney: Snow White is 14; Sleeping Beauty is 16. They’re under 18, meaning this tweet could qualify as child porn under U.S. law,” Saavedra explained. “To clarify,” Saavedra added, “under federal law, drawing and animation are considered child pornography, and you can be convicted for possessing or marketing of such material.” Also see: WATCH: Amnesty International creates gross cartoon of Sleeping Beauty being sexually assaulted: ‘No consent,…

Amnesty International agrees with Kristen Bell: Some of our fairy tales are sending a rape endorsing message to our children. “Don’t you think it’s weird that the prince kisses Snow White without her permission?” the Frozen star said last week. “Because you cannot kiss someone if they’re sleeping.” On Friday, ‘human rights’ group Amnesty International said Bell’s observations were correct. “So, Kristen Bell is right,” the group said on Twitter. “We need to talk about consent – and fairytales are an excellent place to start.” The group also released an alternative ending to the much love children’s classic, Sleeping Beauty,…

I worry that Australia is sleepwalking its way to disaster. Political correctness, identity politics and cultural Marxism have run through our institutions at an astonishing rate. Sometimes I’m asked why I wasn’t saying these things when I was leader of the Labor Party in 2004. The answer is straightforward: none of these issues were current 14 years ago. They simply didn’t exist. Australian politics has been through a remarkable period of change. Prior to the election of the Rudd Government in 2007, the budget was in surplus, our electricity supply was stable and affordable, political correctness had disappeared and only…

Senator Mitch McConnell was harassed by four men on Friday night while dining at a restaurant with his wife in Louisville. “Why don’t you get out of here? Why don’t you leave the entire country?” one of the aggressors yelled at the Kentucky Republican and his wife. According to reports, one of the men slammed his fist on McConnell’s table before throwing his food out of the restaurant door. “Leave him alone,” other customers began to shout. “Nobody cares!” The men were eventually escorted from the restaurant. Earlier this month McConnell was confronted at Reagan National Airport near Washington, D.C.,…

Queensland is celebrating the decriminalisation of abortion by turning the bridges purple, or so Jackie Trad initially thought. The state’s deputy premier posted photos on Twitter Thursday afternoon showing Victoria Bridge and Kurilpa Bridge lit up purple. “Love seeing our local bridges beaming with purple light to celebrate the passing of our bill to decriminalise abortion,” Trad said. “We’re keeping them lit up right across the weekend so make sure you go check them out.” Love seeing our local bridges beaming with purple light to celebrate the passing of our bill to decriminalise abortion.

There’s a new line of underwear on the market, and it’s helping ‘transgender’ boys as young as five hide their penises. “Tuck Buddies” were created to be a “comfortable underwear option for transgender kids.” The product is designed with an extra layer at the front to “provide a bit of padding and coverage for young trans kids.” “My five and a half year old trans daughter has pretty much always presented as a female,” one customer said. “As an infant everyone assumed she was a baby girl.” “Around five, after transitioning, she really started noticing her penis more, and complaining…

A recent opinion piece on news.com.au has argued that women should be outraged at the recent vote to decriminalise abortion by the Queensland Parliament, because of the strong gender divide between the yes and no votes. You see, we should be outraged that most female MPs voted yes and that male MP’s dominated the no vote. The picture presented here is that the vast majority of women are in favour of killing babies and it’s that evil patriarchy who are holding them back – men who don’t deserve to contribute to this debate because they don’t have a uterus. While…

How hateful do you have to be to get expelled from the Party of Diversity? We’ll find out today, depending on whether NSW Opposition Leader Luke Foley removes Shaquette Moselmane as the Labor Party’s Chief Whip in the upper house. Moselmane has form for antisemitic tweeting, as NSW Treasurer pointed out in Question Time yesterday. But his dissemination – at 10pm Wednesday night – of a Jewish conspiracy article is a new low, even for him. It’s more a ramble than an article – the familiar trope about Israelis controlling Australian foreign policy – but what makes it interesting is…

It is the best of times. At no other time in human history has there been less war or invasion, plagues or pestilence, slavery or poverty. There has never been more knowledge, education and instant availability of information literally in the pockets and at the fingertips of more people than there is now. We are empowered, free and masters of our own destiny. We are civilised and enlightened and the major problems which plagued humanity for millennia have largely been solved. But it is the worst of times. We boast of social progress from the pagan ignorance of slavishly worshipping…

Christian persecution is worse today than at any time in history, according to a study released by Catholic organization Aid to the Church in Need. “Not only are Christians more persecuted than any other faith group, but ever-increasing numbers are experiencing the very worst forms of persecution,” the report said. In fact, the persecution is so severe that in many cases “genocide and other crimes against humanity now mean that the Church in core countries and regions faces the possibility of imminent wipe-out.” The report reviewed 13 countries and found that in all but one, the situation for Christians was…

The PC brigade are at it again, this time suggesting the word ‘guys,’ when used in a gender-neutral sense, is sexist toward women and problematic for some in the LGBTQ+ community. Critics are arguing that it positions men as the “default” because “guy” in the singular refers to a male. “Guys is gender neutral!” pic.twitter.com/4JlLa6dv2e — Stephanie (@stefness) December 8, 2017 Lisa Annese, CEO of Diversity Council Australia said, some people feel excluded by the word. “The word ‘guys’ can be used to mean both men and women — but not for everybody.” According to The ABC, the term is…
