The Curious Case of the Pro-Vaxxer Who Never Stopped Barking, Night and Day
The war on the non-vaccinated is being ramped up by the day, with vitriol, discrimination and malice. But not with science. There is no medical justification for this evil being perpetrated on our fellow citizens by governments in Australia, with a merry band of Pharma companies, corporates, bureaucrats, journalists and low information bloggers leading the charge. Some of these claim, erroneously, to be "liberal". It is a time of shame.
The Zoran Strain
Australian politicians and our media are, relentlessly and without shame, creating Covid hate figures out of innocent people whose crime is simply getting on with their lives. They are doing this to deflect and to feint. And to cover up their own, wicked Covid crimes.
Kate’s Army: The Strategic Push to Drive Christian Porter from Public Life
Undeterred by her eventually ill-fated attempts to crush George Pell, Louise Milligan set out to destroy Christian Porter. On this occasion she had a different set of fembot collaborators who formed a self-styled "army" on behalf of a sadly deceased rape accuser. An accuser who decided not to pursue her allegations against Porter, and whose family were strongly committed to putting the story to rest.
The Gutter Press
Not all those Catholic priests accused of historical sexual misconduct have the good fortune to have their reputations restored through the Australian legal system, as Cardinal Pell, mercifully and eventually, did. The case of Fr John Fleming has yet to be resolved in his favour, but the fight goes on. As does the disgraceful abuse of this good and holy priest, by those who originally nailed him to his cross.
Lawyer X
The journalists Anthony Dowsley and Patrick Carlyon are outstanding practitioners of their craft. They have written a must-read, cracking story of Australia's worst ever legal fiasco. Naturally, it involves Victoria Police.
Deadwood Justice
It was late 2019, and a coincidence of events saw Australian police forces, especially Victoria Police, under the pump. 2020 only got worse for our bungling coppers. First there was the humiliation of the Pell case outcome, then the unconscionable thuggery of VicPol against its own citizenry, beamed around the world, and finally, the McMurdo excoriation. Will things change? Will the rogue force south of the Murray be set to rights? Will anyone be punished? This article was written in December 2019, and is published here now for the first time.
Journalism as Activism: The Case of Louise Milligan
Louise Milligan, who sought to destroy the reputation of Cardinal George Pell, has written a new book. She should have, instead, abjectly apologised for having written the first one.
A Protest Bus, a Cartier Watch and the Awful Fruits of Privatisation
When protest buses attacking Daniel Andrews get forced off the road by police, and when politicians abuse private sector executives for doing their jobs, there is clearly something very wrong with our public services. It all goes back to an unhealthy 1980s obsession with privatisation and "new public management".
Justice Denied - Reflections on the Scourge of Guilt by Accusation
A new book just out by David Pierre casts fresh light on one of the scourges of modern legal practice. This is the new curse of guilt by accusation. Nothing is less likely to eradicate the heinous crimes of child sex abuse that the attacks by the mob on the innocent.
