A NSW gold mine was ordered to shut down after some kangaroos drowned in a tailings dam. Greens demanded a stop put to a coal mine because it might kill some finches. Green activists lost their minds when a fishing trawler killed a single dolphin. Yet, when dozens of endangered
Back in the dawn of the 80s, a friend returned to school from a trip to America. He regaled us with one story I particularly remember: visiting a house where they played chess on a computer — against another computer user at the other end of the country, via a telephone

The current lefty loonies days should be numbered, but our young people like most young generations are not that interested in current news and are certainly unaware just how their brainwashed lecturers, school teachers and their peers are lying to them. How sad it is to see 8-year-olds being dragged
Are we doing it all over again? Is Australia whipping up another Chamberlain hysteria? I vividly remember the whole circus. It’s astonishing in hindsight just how unhinged public commentary around the case became. From initially shooting and killing dingoes on sight, public opinion quickly did an about-face when, as

It is a sneaky, furtive, surreptitious move by the ever-so-transparent Local Government Minister Kieran McAnulty! Last night, in a dazzling display of democracy at its finest, he
