ANDREW BOLT|Old Dog Thoughts |
News Corporation employs Andrew Bolt and provides him with a platform ensuring the inequality of speech. Bolt's Blog not only advocates conservative, right wing and Tea Party views it moderates out most opposing opinions which he is entitled to do. However Andrew Bolt simply lies when he says he provides an arena for fair and balanced discussion in a no spin zone. He doesn't it's all spin.

5 years after the Royal Commission Colonial approach to children form the cradle to 18 continues after which a training for adulthood has been well and truly achieved.
Urgent reform is overdue to help Australia’s children in need of guidance instead of incarceration, writes Gerry Georgatos.
This extraordinary Telegram from Broome (Kimberley, Western Australia) resident Chas Morgan on 20 July 1907 requesting that he be sent a ‘cask arsenic exterminate aborigines’ is remarkable for many reasons beyond what is stated.
It is directly addressed to the man who was responsible for the protection of Aboriginal people: Chief Protector of Aborigines Henry ‘Harry’ Prinsep.
It is two years after Dr Walter Roth’s notorious Royal Commission into Aboriginal Affairs that shed light (and generated national and international headlines) on the appalling conditions for Aboriginal people in the Kimberley following which much reform was promised. And it is post Australian Federation on a ‘Commonwealth’ telegram - but this exposure didn’t seem to bother Chas Morgan.
Andrew Bolt's claim is that historic documentation of Aborigine treatment as for "Social Welfare" reasons
Michael Pascoe: The federal Liberal Party doesn’t care about Australia
So the rabble that is the federal Opposition will remain
aloof from the jobs and skills summit, declining the opportunity to
contribute to policy formation – if they have anything to contribute –
preferring to remain remote to whinge, playing to their rusted-on base
instead of the nation’s benefit.
And thus the Dutton opposition perforce marks itself as unfit
for consideration as alternative government. It doesn’t care about the
country, about our future.
It lacks any sense of integrity. It’s only in it for the
mates, for the vested interests, for the lust for power, for the keys to
The Lodge.
And that is a bad thing for us all. We get better government when there is good opposition, challenging, improving.
The Dutton opposition has left the building. It has nothing to offer.
We're no fans of Donald Trump. But the FBI's raid on the home of a former president sets a dangerous precedent
A precedent which now means that anyone who evades taxes, attempts to
undermine an election, sexually assaults women, manipulates the value of
their assets, uses state resources to enrich themselves or aids and
abets the overthrow of a democratically elected government will be
subject to investigation.
