The Toxic Tolerance of Sweet Liz Ellis
In a nation that worships our sport and our sporting elites, Liz Ellis is a beloved Australian sporting hero. Liz played 122 netball games representing Australia, four years of which were as captain. Her personality displayed in the media is down to earth, her relative modesty and unassuming humour make it easy to like her. She seems like she should be a voice of moderation. But yesterday Liz Ellis effectively accused Maria Folau of supporting or endorsing homophobia in a comment on Twitter. There are serious problems with Liz’s comments, problems which reveal a toxic practice of intolerance and bigotry against…
Israel Folau’s GoFundMe campaign shut down: ‘We don’t tolerate exclusion’
Israel Folau’s GoFundMe page has been shut down after the crowdfunding platform apparently found the campaign to be in violation of their terms of service. Folau, who is taking on Rugby Australia for his right to be included in the game after he was sacked for sharing a Bible verse on his personal Instagram account, is now being excluded by GoFundMe, once again, in the name of “inclusivity.” Think about that for a second. Nicola Britton, regional manager for GoFundMe Australia said: “Today we will be closing Israel Folau’s campaign and issuing full refunds to all donors. After a routine…
Media and corporate elites furious at Folau’s support, bizarrely accuse him of taking money from dying kids, Mark Latham comes to his defence
The media and corporate elites are ramping up their attacks on Israel Folau, now accusing the former rugby star of “greed” after he started a Go Fund Me page to help with legal expenses in his fight with Rugby Australia. Numerous news stories have been published by mainstream media, scolding Folau for asking his supporters to back him, suggesting instead he ought to sell his own properties and fund his legal action himself. Former teammate and Rugby commentator, Drew Mitchell, was praised by elites such as Peter FitzSimons for accusing Folau of greed, bizarrely suggesting that Folau thinks he deserves…
Israel Folau asks for help: ‘I can’t do it alone’
Israel Folau has asked his supporters for help in his fight against Rugby Australia. So far, Folau has spent more than $100,000 in legal fees after Rugby Australia terminated his contract for citing a Bible verse on his personal Instagram account. The former rugby star yesterday set up a Go Fund Me page in hopes of raising $3-million to continue his legal action against Rugby Australia. In a video posted to social media, Folau said the overwhelming support he’s received made him realise he’s not just fighting for his future and his family, but he’s fighting for what is right.…
Cory Bernardi: ‘The Australian Conservatives will be formally deregistered as a political party’
Senator Cory Bernardi has announced he will begin the process of formally deregistering the Australian Conservatives as a political party after a disappointing result at the last election. In a statement posted on the Australian Conservatives website, Senator Bernardi said many potential voters returned to supporting the Coalition when Malcolm Turnbull was replaced by Scott Morrison. In a bid to avoid a Shorten government, hundreds of Party members claimed to have voted for the Coalition first followed by the Australian Conservatives. “Although we made it clear in the lead-up to the campaign that we were only running in the Senate…
WATCH: Senior detective tackles fleeing man mid-press conference
Incredible footage has been shared of a senior police detective tackling a man mid-press conference. The video, captured by 9News, shows the man running from an angry father who claimed the individual had been inappropriate to his teenage daughter. The Sunshine Coast detective spear tackled the man as he attempted to flee past the conference while they were filming. The officer appears to have sustained a minor head injury during the tackle.

Mark Latham defends religious freedom: “big corporate chiefs preach diversity but what they are actually doing is trying to impose uniformity.”
This morning in the New South Wales Parliament One Nation MP Mark Latham moved a motion in defense of religious freedom. During his speech, Latham said: “75 years ago today young men from across the Free World stormed the beaches of Normandy to fight for the liberty of all mankind… How then in 2019 are so many Australians worried about the loss of religious freedom in our country in peacetime?” Referring to the recent sacking of rugby star Israel Folau, Latham went on to blast corporate dictatorships and their influence in sport: In 1944 the Free World fought a dictatorial…
Mark Latham to move a motion protecting religious freedom and condemning Rugby Australia
Mark Latham is today expected to move a motion protecting religious freedom and condemning Rugby Australia for their treatment of Israel Folau. The One Nation MP will also ask the NSW Parliament to condemn Rugby Australia for redefining the Bible as a form of vilification and ‘hate speech.’ The motion states: That this House calls on the Government to: (a) support the basic human right of New South Wales workers to express political, cultural and religious opinion in their private time, away from their place of work, without suffering employment penalties, (b) support Article 18 of the International Covenant of Civil and…
WATCH: Avi Yemini confronts anti-Israel protesters chanting: “Down, down, Israel”
Avi Yemini of TR News confronted a group of anti-Israel protesters today who gathered on the steps of Parliament House in Melbourne chanting, “Down, down, Israel!” The rally, organised by a group called Al Quds Melbourne, was part of the International Al Quds demonstrations, initiated by the Islamic Republic of Iran to express support for Palestine. During the Melbourne rally, protesters not only chanted Israel’s destruction, but some openly voiced their support for the terrorist organisation Hamas. “How do you feel about Hamas?” Yemini asked one of the men in the crowd. “They should be here,” the man responded. “Hamas…
5 Reasons National Reconciliation Week Won’t Change Anything
In 2008 Prime Minister Kevin Rudd issued an official national apology for the mistreatment of Australia’s indigenous people. Since then, evidence has abounded that race relations have simply gotten worse with open resentment and even violent protests of Australia. The latest despicable display of racial bitterness is NRL star Cody Walker’s unoriginal refusal to sing the national anthem before the State of Origin opener. You’d never guess it’s actually “National Reconciliation Week” unless that means racist virtue-signalling week. Yes, the people complaining loudest about racism are plainly racists demanding obeisance. This week will potentially only serve to deepen resentment and…
52-year-old former PhD student is suing his university for $3.125 MILLION for ‘loss of sex drive’ after failing two subjects
A former PhD student is suing Queensland’s James Cook University for $3.125 million, after failing two subjects and being accused of plagiarism. Kuldeep Mann said the trauma of failing cost him his reputation and sex drive. “I’m no longer wanting to be on the bed, to share bed with my partner,” the 52-year-old told Nine News Queensland. “There is no such desire. No desire for anything.” This is the unfortunate result of cultivating a culture of entitlement. Not only do people imagine they’re entitled to more than they’ve earned, but they also almost entirely lack any concept of personal responsibility.…
Intelligence experts: Australians will be safer if ISIS fighters are allowed back into the country
Intelligence experts have said Australians would be safer if jihadi fighters who travelled from Australia were allowed to return home. Agencies including the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (ASIO) reportedly told the federal government it would make it easier for authorities to monitor them if they were permitted to live in Australia. At least 230 Australian Muslims travelled to Syria and Iraq to fight alongside ISIS since 2012. About 95 of those were reportedly killed in combat. Presently, jihadi fighters can be prevented from returning to Australia for up to two years if they pose a threat to the community. WATCH:…
Australian Taxation Office monitoring donations given to Israel Folau’s church to block support for his legal challenge against Rugby Australia
The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) will monitor donations given to Israel Folau’s church to assess whether the money is used to fund his expected legal challenge against Rugby Australia, the Courier Mail reports. Rugby Australia announced the termination of Folau’s $4 million contract last week, accusing the rugby star of a “high-level breach of the professional player’s code of conduct” after he quoted 1 Corinthians 6:9 on his personal Instagram account. According to the Courier Mail, there are “concerns” that supporters of Folau will channel money through his church in order to claim the donation as a tax deduction. An ATO…
The Labor Party has abandoned Christian Australians
It is slowly starting to dawn on some Labor voters that Australians with a traditional Christian worldview are feeling somewhat targeted. Entirely unremarkable beliefs consistent with the last few millennia of Christian doctrine have somehow become as repulsive as racism. Instead of debating our ideas, self-described ‘progressives’ attribute a diagnosis of phobia, a pathological mental disorder. Labor frontbencher Chris Bowen belled the cat, warning that religious Australians believe the ALP has abandoned them, according to a report in today’s The Australian. “I have noticed as I have been around during the election campaign, and even in the days since, how…
Will Labor listen and learn or lurch further left?
Labor’s Chris Bowen told voters, “If you don’t like our policies, don’t vote for us.” It was an applaudable moment of conviction and commitment I’d like to see more often in political contests. Tell the electorate who you are, what you believe in, what you honestly think is worth fighting for, and then let us choose. I asked my Uber driver yesterday if he was happy with the outcomes of the federal election, without telling him anything about me or my views. He offered that he was normally a Labor voter, but was greatly disillusioned by the way they’d “become…
WATCH: One Nation truck set on fire: “This is what the Left does to conservative parties”
A One Nation truck parked outside a shopping centre in Tasmania has been set on fire. The truck, driven by One Nation candidate Adam Lambert, was parked near a shopping centre at the time of the attack, while Mr Lambert was inside the store buying groceries. According to One Nation leader Pauline Hanson, an individual was seen torching the vehicle before fleeing the scene. Ms Hanson posted a video of the truck ablaze on Facebook saying, “Isn’t it amazing how the left call for tolerance all the time, but act like they’re above the law when you don’t agree with…
The defiant voice of the discerning voter: Scott Morrison’s LNP shock win and what must happen next
Saturday’s election saw Australians choose freedom and individual responsibility, over surrendering their country to globalist bureaucrats and their inherent totalitarianism. Against all mainstream media predictions which had handed the Labor/Green opposition the 2019 election, the discerning voter – Morrison’s “quiet Australians” – made their voice heard. In many ways, the outcome of the election illustrates that Leftists within the leftwing media are not reporting properly or honestly. They have a narrative and expect people to fall in line with it. This is the way we want you to vote, so “vote as we tell you to vote, or else.” Caldron…
Alan Jones blasts major sponsor of Rugby Australia: ‘They have contracts with organisations whose treatment of women and homosexuals is repugnant’
Alan Jones has blasted Qantas, suggesting the major sponsor for Rugby Australia is also responsible for ending Israel Folau’s rugby career. Speaking to 2GB’s Ben Fordham, Jones said: “This is the same sponsor who has a contract with Middle Eastern airline companies whose treatment of women and homosexuals is repugnant. “We’re talking money from an entity which has a corporate engagement with international organisations whose treatment of women and homosexuals is totally unacceptable to the moral standards of Australians, but that’s OK. That seems to be OK. “It’s OK to punch someone and you get six weeks. It’s OK to…
Rugby Australia terminates Israel Folau’s contract, then assures other players they “fully support their right to their own beliefs”
Rugby Australia has announced the termination of Israel Folau’s multi-million dollar contract after the rugby star last month quoted 1 Corinthians 6:9 on his personal Instagram account. Raelene Castle, CEO of Rugby Australia, made the announcement today during a press conference, stating: “Israel Folau has today been issued a sanction directing termination of his playing contract for his high-level breach of the professional player’s code of conduct.” Ironically, Castle went on to assure both Rugby fans and players that Rugby Australia “fully supports” their right to their own beliefs. “Our clear message to rugby fans today is that we need…
Does Bill Shorten’s manipulative attack on Scott Morrison’s faith prove he’s unfit to be Prime Minister?
Bill Shorten’s poorly aimed verbal sucker punch at Scott Morrison draws from the assumption that those who voted “yes” in the LNP’s gay marriage popularity survey are a bankable vote for Labor. This political maneuver was a bad call. It betrays a deep overconfidence in the Labor political machine and underestimates the intellectual capacity of the discerning public. Shorten’s goal was clear. Capitalize on the fearmongering and misrepresentations, which he and Pro-SSM advocates were so keen to employ, instead of engaging in rational, respectful debate. As a servant of that public, he seems to forget that Labor had originally refused…
