Grattan on Friday: The worst is not over in the crisis tearing at Scott Morrison’s government

What's been happening in politics this week is utterly abnormal. But some journalists continue to treat it as business as usual.

At what point will so much of Australia’s mainstream media, and the press gallery in particular, stop pretending what’s happening in politics is even remotely business as usual?

One of the lessons of the last four years in America was the struggle of a media class resisting the normalization of Trump’s behaviour — the open corruption, the constant new lows of presidential misbehaviour, the trashing of institutions and centuries-old political norms, the attempts to intimidate the media, constant attacks on science and facts, indifference to the deaths of hundreds of thousands, culminating in his incitement of an effort to overthrow a democratically elected government.

We’ve not plumbed anything like those depths in Australia, but nor is much of the media resisting the rapid deterioration in political standards.

Plenty of journalists, mostly female, have been prepared to call this out. When will the laggards of the press gallery see that this isn’t normal? Or are they too deep within the culture to see it?

It doesn’t have to be this Way: England has 33 gun Homicides per Year (equiv. 182); US has 10,258

Revised We are reeling from back-to-back mass shootings, in Atlanta and Boulder. The main similarities of the two are that the young alleged murderers easily bought firearms just before their horrific killings and that neither of them ought to have been anywhere near a firearm, clearly having severe emotional problems. Most Americans don’t have or want a gun, and 50% of all guns in the US are owned by 3% of Americans, i.e. some 6 million people out of 320 million. That three percent would be just fine if they were subjected to better security checks and a ban on assault weapons.

In 2019 (i.e. before the distorting pandemic) there were 413 mass shootings in the US.

 

Another Fact rarely published. The USA is 5% of the world's population where 25% of the world incarcerated exist.

FAKE NEWS AND MISINFORMATION EXPOSED 

Andrew Bolt seems to have been a failure in attracting subs on his blog so much so someone else now seems to run it for him. Rather than acknowledge his work it's still "allegedly" Bolt's space for which he takes the credit. Can we assume it's an unacknowledged, young, white, climate denying Christian woman?

 British university 'spending thousands' on statue of 'global warming extremist' Greta Thunberg

British university ‘spending thousands’ on statue of ‘global warming extremist’ Greta Thunberg

Sky News host Andrew Bolt says a British university is spending around $40,000 on a statue of "global warming extremist" Greta Thunberg. "The university says the statue is to inspire students," Mr Bolt said. Mr Bolt discussed the issue with NSW One Nation Leader Mark Latham. "Well how dare they ... how dare they waste all that money on someone who was wagging school, sailing around on a boat hectoring adults about what they should do on a big public policy issue," Mr Latham said. "The best lesson for university students is put your head down, study your books, get your degree and move on to a successful life". "So I don't see how Greta is a role model for anything". 

Two Misogynist, Ageist, Climate deniers are here to remind us of the grumpy old geezers up in the balcony's privileged seats yelling down at what they see is happening below on the Muppet Show. The difference they aren't as funny. The demographics of universities in the UK and Australia are changing, and rapidly changing. Bolt wouldn't know he never spent time in one let alone got any qualifications. He used to pretend he had on his public self-reported CV. So you'd think that alone would have him cheering Greta who at 17 has come far further.

Anyway with universities increasingly female and surrounded by statues of men it's not surprising a woman might be chosen as a woman as a role model not just for the university's sake but for  the planet. Latham & Bolt must hated Helen Reddy's song I'am Woman " when it came out.

 There's really nothing to say is there in response to two idiots making public fools of themselves even in a slow changing world where woman have been excelling for decades except in areas locked out by men. In a world nevertheless in a changing one even where they have less control. Bolt and Latham sound Woke and angry. Guess they went home and  had their way with their women.

 Beijing has ‘growing concern’ about overseas opposition

China exploits identity politics to ‘make us weaker and itself stronger’

China is exploiting identity politics and culture wars in Australia as a weapon "to make us weaker, and itself stronger", after it claimed the Detention Centres on Manus Island were "concentration camps", says Sky News host Andrew Bolt. "This is from China, that has shipped up to one million Muslim-Chinese into real concentration camps, and locked up Christians, locked up human rights activists, locked up Falun Gong practitioners too," he said. "Despite all its own crimes against human rights. Despite China itself banning democracy, banning free speech, crushing freedom now in Hong Kong, the world - thanks to another poison of moral relativism - let China last year join the Human Rights Council of the United Nations along with Communist Cuba and Russia - which happens to murder dissidents. "And in this corrupt human rights council, this Chinese-Communist dictatorship now lectures Australia about human rights?" 

 Andrew Bolt has changed his stripes. The Australian media Muslim hater has turned a corner and become their crusader. The problem being can anybody believe him?

Note how Andrew Bolt simply ignores and steps around the truth of the Chinese comments about us. A truth that more than one sovereign nation has  pointed to this century and even the last when our White Australian policy shamed us. Note also that currently Tony Abbott is supposedly only a "trade advisor" in the UK. However he has been selling his best practice Asylum seeker policy to the British Conservative Party. It's a bit like selling coal to Newcastle as the British have an inglorious history of growing fat on the slave trade and their colonial exploitation of peoples they saw as different. Abbott is urging them to go back to the harsh good old days. However, unlike us they changed their ways to become multicultural and recognize human rights far more than we do.  Yes,Tony Abbott is now  there trying to "fix that" with his "hard severe but kind policies as have been displayed on Manus"

The fact is Bolt the outspoken assimilationist is here throwing shit at China totally ignoring our human rights abuse of "Asylum Seekers", First Nations People, Muslims, Africans, and NZers. Bolt advocated Muslims here in Australia need be treated more like the Chinese treat them. More like Aborigines are. They are the most incarcerated indigenous people in the world, their deaths in custody ignored, wage theft not compensated, and their culture  blamed for their dysfunction.

 Assimilation policies while still in place as advocated by Bolt need to be increased and immigration of Muslims stopped. A new necessary best practice needs to be adopted to counter our declaration of being the world's best multicultural nation. What we actually hear from Bolt is the voice of a jingoistic, white racist nationalist bigot, who lacks any sense of manners, diplomacy and theatrically blows up when it's pointed out he really has no genuine Aussie clothes on. 

 

Beijing has ‘growing concern’ about overseas opposition

The Australian Strategic Policy Institute’s Michael Shoebridge says Beijing wants to “stoke” internal debates and anger overseas as it now has a “growing concern” about opposition. Mr Shoebridge said Beijing is “really starting to worry” about the growing opposition to their country’s “actions and behaviour”. “When the EU puts sanctions on individual Chinese officials that are right in the middle of directing those atrocities in Xinjiang, that gets Beijing’s attention,” he said. “There’s growing concern that other countries are starting to see that we’re all facing the same problem with China.” He told Sky News host Andrew Bolt the problem with China is “rooted into behavior of the Chinese Government”. Mr Bolt pointed to occurrences of China “lecturing” Australia and the United States about human rights. “What an incredible and offensive lecture from a bunch of hypocrites,” Mr Bolt said. “As we speak there’s two Australians – including a journalist – locked up simply for criticising China – a country that is so racist that it is trying to virtually wipe out Tibetan and Uighur culture.” Mr Shoebridge said China’s accusations are about “distraction and misdirection”. “They’re able to talk about our internal debates because we have political systems where we can have internal debates, we don’t end up getting locked up with our organs harvested because we disagree with the government,” he said. 

 Can you believe just how authentic Andrew Bolt is in his pretence that he really cares what happens to Muslims in China? Wasn't Bolt loud enough voicing that Muslims needed special treatment in Australia. Expulsion. incarceration and reeducation programs were a must for all Muslims because all Muslims posed a danger to Australia. Now he's their protector ho ho.

 There is nothing really new here Andrew Bolt's merely repeating rephrasing what he has said above. Maybe because someone whispered what an f-wit he is. China is reacting in exactly the way the Howard and Abbott government's reacted when they deemed "Asylum Seekers" "illegals" counter to  the majority of the world's signatories to the international convention on Asylum Seekers who spoke out. The Australian government in fact was worse because they claimed to be a democracy but had politicized their cruelty with the help of Murdoch and the IPA that they had a sovereign right to torture and maim families and children for trying to escape to safety here. Australia set the bar so low no other nations followed suit. This once nation admired for a "fair go" was totally destroyed in the eyes of the rest of the world. They shamed us and still do today.

What a hypocritical moron Bolt is.Totally avoiding reality, that after months Australia is still "considering" its response to the government shootings and killing of it's citizens in Myanmar. Yes," still considering" what their response should be! They had no response to Trump's refusal to accept his election loss, the 6th of July riots and they simply gave NZ the finger. In fact this is the government that closed down Radio Australia let China into the Pacific to the disgust of our allies and are now complaining about China's Belt Road Initiative all to the support or silence of Andrew Bolt Dumber than Dumb.

 Liberal women should celebrate 'we got there without quotas'

Liberal women should celebrate ‘we got there without quotas’

Liberal Party Vice President Teena McQueen says Liberal women should celebrate that they get where they are without gender quotas. Ms McQueen said the Liberal Party had a president for the first time in 15 years that was a young female who had no political affiliations and ascended through the ranks with hard work and determination. "She did this the hard way. She has the mantra, work hard, work smart... and best of all, she does not believe in quotas," she said. "We should celebrate as Liberal women that get where we are without quotas."

The Melbourne Cup, The Stall Gift, are world famous handicap races we don't here the complaints do we? We certainly heard the rumbling in the Liberal camp when Julie Bishop was suggested as leader. We heard that outcry from News Corp it was never that loud even when Turnbull beat Abbott. Don't select Julie Bishop she's a woman Rupert Murdoch, the IPA and others determine the structure of the Liberal Party. Even Peta Credlin knew that. So, she opted for the power behind not in front of the testosterone curtain and she stood with her husband not alone. However, being aware of what is doesn't mean it's right. Politicians are sworn in to do what's right when wrong is staring them in the face.

 

 'PM might not want to fight culture wars but the culture warriors want to fight him'

‘PM might not want to fight culture wars but the culture warriors want to fight him’

Sky News host Andrew Bolt says Prime Minister Scott Morrison and the Liberal Party have got to realise "nothing short of total, humiliating surrender to the identity politics of the left" will satisfy their critics. "How many of their principles will they junk before they realise this?" Mr Bolt said. "Think of the challenges this country has. The challenges you would hope our prime minister is working on day in, day out. Floods in NSW. Getting the country vaccinated. Getting the tens of thousands of Australians stuck overseas back home. Getting on top of this horrendous debt. Getting more people back to work. China – this growing threat. "But for five damn weeks – 'Prime Minister, this alleged rape, when did you know about it? This alleged rape, were your ministers sensitive enough?'. "Morrison told me a couple of years ago (he) wasn't going to fight the culture wars. Wasn't interested. I warned him: you might not want to fight, but the culture warriors want to fight you. They will come and you had best be ready. He wasn't. "Didn't fight for reason against the new culture of victimhood. Didn't fight the outrageous bias of the ABC. Instead, he kept making stupid concessions that are now biting him in the backside."

Guess Andrew Bolt failed to see the Conservative Women at the March for Justice. All he saw in his blinkered chauvinist blur was women.  The frightbats, Morrison has had to put up with  "for five damn weeks – 'Prime Minister, this alleged rape, when did you know about it? This alleged rape, were your ministers sensitive enough?'. " Yes, put up with the trivia of allegations while ignoring more important issues. After all Bolt knows women lie 15,000 allegations and only 2% convictions. That's proof enough. It's just another fake stolen children claim the evidence is there in the paperwork of history.

 "I warned him: you might not want to fight, but the culture warriors want to fight you." Here is Bolt the puffed up  crusader for a fully assimilated nation of Western white- male christian traditions and institutions psychologically ingrained at a cellular level to us all and passed down from generation to generation. Coupled with an economic and just caste system established at birth by inheritance with restricted rules and  pathways of mobility.

This blog isn't at all about Morrison at all. It's all about the the self promotion and the raising of Bolt to be wiser smarter and brighter than most otheradvisors with a loud speaker in the land. The constant re-imaging and selling of Andrew Bolt who hasn't earned his status by merit, education or any essential productive output. Nor any respected perons of notes references. It's the work of Bolt who can't show his face in public not because he's not welcome but because he's basically the forever complainer, paranoiac about a country he claims he no longer wants to live in. Instead he praises and holds up a Dutch passport where even more of the cultural qualities he complains about here exist.

 Bolt's really is a fake Dutchman who dreams of his retirement "nirvana" as a writer in Amsterdam. Twice as populated, battling climate change, more multicultural, far more socialist and where women have won wars he still wants to fight here. Yes, he dreams of writing but there but so do all of us in one way or other who can't but are better writers than he is. Writers he criticizes for having won awards from left wing boards. Good Australian writers who don't pretend to be better that their fellow man like Andrew Bolt does.
