The Doctor Many people think I wasted my time studying philosophy. That may be true, but I did pick up some gems along the way. One of them was burden of proof tennis. Do I have the responsibility to prove my point to my interlocutor or does he have to
Anyone who’s ever been a responsible parent knows that you don’t indulge tantrum-throwing toddlers. Even the most progressive child psychologists are clear: “Be consistent about not giving in to demands. This will help your child learn that tantrums don’t help them get what they want.” Others also
Nobody likes being told, “told you so”, but, New Zealand, you’ve asked for it. Told you so. You got carried away by your own “progressivism”, and now look where you are. I recall the debate over New Zealand’s then-mooted Bill of Rights, and the warnings from grumpy conservative
The rape trial that shook Canberra may have fizzled to an end, with the ACT prosecutor dropping all charges, but the legal action — and the bombshell revelations — roll on. Everybody’s lawyering up, all over the place. First off is accused Bruce Lehrmann, who says he is broke and broken

The most explosive court case in recent Australian history has ended with a spectacular squib from the accuser. All charges against the accused have been dropped, essentially because the accuser is refusing to return to court to give evidence. This follows the failure of rushed attempts to change the law
Back when I was a kid, a boy at a school near me was knocked off his bike by a car and badly injured. Surgery was necessary to save his life. But, as it happened, the surgery involved blood transfusions – which his Jehovah’s Witness parents refused. The boy died.
It’s been a common joke, these last few years, to remind the left that 1984 was a warning, not an instruction manual. But if New Zealanders are looking for a novel that really sounds a warning for their country, they’d be better off looking at Animal Farm. It’

Outside of Iran or Afghanistan there are few ideologies whose members so often threaten women with violence, or have the police arrest and detain women who openly criticise their ideas. Real women, that is. Not pretendy men in dresses. As
