Australia's Big End of Town gambled heavily in the Voice Cup last weekend. They lost. Only the Nanny "State" (Canberra) voted "Yes". But their horse ran last in every other state and territory and now has to be put down.
This costly ($400M) and divisive exercise showed that Australians do not want politicians meddling with their federal constitution. We have learned to distrust proposals supported by big government, big business, trade unions, woke celebrities and the ABC. And the more we heard of this racist proposal, the less we liked it.

The Victorian era marked the height of the Industrial Revolution, a period of immense technological advancement and industrialisation. The Laxey Wheel is a true monument to the era's industrial and engineering achievements, which revolutionised various industries, including mining.
The Laxey Wheel, also known as Lady Isabella, is a large waterwheel located in the village of Laxey on the Isle of Man, which is a self-governing British Crown Dependency in the Irish Sea. The Laxey Wheel is one of the most prominent tourist attractions on the island and is known for its historical and engineering significance. Least we forget the TT Races, but more on that, another day.
It means a great deal to me, as a proud daughter of a Manxman, and I always feel that my late Dad was a " Can Do " sort of person. He never shied away from something that was troublesome.

Real history is no longer part of the school curriculum. It should be because we have much to learn from it. The adage that it keeps repeating itself is a salutary lesson in common sense.
Most Australians would not know that the reason that the US Marine Corps was formed was specifically to fight Islam. A nearly 240 year history of the fight against Islam is sadly, largely forgotten.

The Voice was neither about “closing the gap,” nor “listening to achieve better outcomes.” Such simple notions were crafted to appeal to the feel-good virtue-signallers, and they were never sincere.
Conversely, the NO Campaign never truly addressed the real diabolical agenda, preferring to bluntly deflect with “racist and divisive” and “too risky.”
It is all these things, but it was fundamentally a Davos’ inspired UN-WEF collaboration, a plunder-project, that was essential for advancing Schwab’s Great Reset. It was truly this, and nothing else.
WATER:
The human body is mostly water. Some folk drink it only in an emergency; they reckon it rusts your plumbing. More than seventy percent of the earth's surface is awash with it and as Australians know only too well, it often rages across the land sweeping away towns and drowning all in its path. Nevertheless, it's something we can't live without and fad provides the lucrative, commercial hook.
The fashionable quest for pure, crystalline, unadulterated, potable water knows no bounds for trendoids and aspiring jocksters. The price they'll pay for it defies sane logic.
The bottled water craze has created big business.
Over the last few weeks I have noticed that people are losing their sense of humor. So I decided to write something to remind people that if you can't laugh, you may as well fook off and be done with it.
That is the problem with muslims. They never developed a sense of humor. Like the priests of the old Catholic church who were so full of hell and damnation that they forgot to look at the glory of the good and the positive things in life.
I mean, how could I ever post the joke about the two muslim mothers looking down at their kids and lamenting " Kids! They blow up so fast these days. "
It's like my old Gran used to say, if all you've got is lemons, eat the fookin things because they could be all you get today.
Lemonade? Hah! We would dream of lemonade only we were too weak to squeeze the juice and Father McGee would have whipped us stupid for daring to say such filthy things as " squeezing the juice. "
He was like that.

In 352 A.D., the Roman Emperor Constantine convened the Council of Nicea in what is now Turkey, to settle the doctrine of the Christian Church, which was solely the Catholic Church.
Invitations were sent to all bishops across the vast Roman Empire, and many attended. The result was an inflexible doctrine, modelled largely upon the writings of the Greek philosophers, Plato and Aristotle, which was enforced across the Christian world by the popes, who controlled the monarchs.
Two philosophers who disagreed with the infallible doctrine that the earth is the centre of the universe, Giordano Bruno and Galileo Galilei, were dealt with harshly

It is over 250 years since Captain Cook's discovery of the east coast of Australia and it's worth asking ... what was Cook doing here?
He certainly wasn't looking for Australia (or New Holland as it was then known) as Europeans had known it existed since the 1500's.
Like many other Europeans before him, Cook was searching for the fabled land of Terra Australis.
This article was published back in May 2021. It is interesting to re read it, given recent events.
Bombs are falling, missiles are flying, and people are dying in the Middle East. As I write this, over 4,100 rockets have fallen on Israel from the “Palestinians” in Gaza and Lebanon. The long-range rockets that can hit Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, and the Ben-Gurion Airport originated in Iran, which is the origin of the rocket technology.
Biden and what’s-her-name Harris have managed to destroy our economy, terrorize everyone with unproven vaccines (not safe and effective but dirty and dangerous), and destroyed the relative peace in the Middle East. The Hill opined, “Just over 100 days into office, President Joe Biden has drawn America’s enemies — Iran and its terror proxies — close to the U.S. administration, all while distancing from U.S. allies Israel, Saudi Arabia, and the peacemaking Gulf Arab states.”
The obvious is—well—obvious that Biden and Company are worthless, gutless, mindless, spineless, and toothless. Of course, I may be wrong since I don’t know if they are toothless.

How have we come to this mess in the Middle East?
The strange thing is that my mind immediately went to that figure of historical noteriety , Lawrence of Arabia.
It is probably accepted that most kids today wouldn't have a clue who we was, but most of us from the era who actually got taught things other than gender fluidity in school , have heard of this imposing figure. The British gentleman who rode around the desert with his blue eyes and, today, would have had more fans on social media than Taylor Swift.
So who was he?
As Israel is under attack, President Biden throws a party. At the same time, Prime Minister Albanese visits a flower show.
You simply cannot make this sort of thing up.
We are facing the most divisive time in our nation's history here in Australia and the world is at breaking point.
Where is the leadership? Oh, that's right. He is visiting a flower show, speaking at a mosque and spruiking racial division.
It is time to let us unite as Patriots and put division behind us.
