Due to pressure from Greens and other global-warming vested interests, governments are already implementing extremist policies to combat perceived man-made global warming – although the planet has not shown any appreciable warming for at least 20 years. Global warming has been renamed climate change, a much safer name as climates are always changing.
Australia, along with the rest of the world, has been bullied into signing up for net-zero by 2050 by a cabal of Green activists, woke capitalists, the mainstream media and well-meaning fools like King Charles.
If this dangerous policy is fully implemented, there will be extremely serious consequences for both the industrial capacity and the financial iability of Australia.
In a grand show of virtue-signalling the Albanese government has passed legislation committing Australia to a 43 per cent reduction of CO2 emissions by 2030.
This will cost an estimated $1.2 trillion while it cripples the economy. Details.
Freedom of speech will be greatly enhanced by ensuring that all laws based on race, ethnicity, and gender, especially racial vilification laws, are repealed.
Racial vilification laws, the so-called “hate speech laws,” fly in the face of Article 19 of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which proclaims:
Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.
If necessary, existing laws relating to threatening and intimidating behavior can be beefed up such as to make it an offense to threaten or intimidate another to the extent that the person intimidated feels genuine fear for his safety or emotional well-being. There should be no mention of race. This law would deal with social media stalking as well as bullying in the workplace and at school. Many jurisdictions have such laws. There is no need for laws where only certain races are protected from bullying and intimidation.
The starting point is to repeal section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act.
We must call out those who use the terms “racist,” “Islamophobe” and “bigot” as leftist propaganda bullies.
So fearful of being branded racist, many government officials, police and other authority figures have been known to cower in fear and avert their eyes while heinous crimes are committed in their jurisdictions as evidenced in the Muslim sexual exploitation crimes in Oxford, Rotherham and in many other places in Britain. The end result of calling, or threatening to call, a person “racist” is little different from threatening violence to force a person to commit a crime. Hence I believe it not inappropriate to label such a provocateur a linguistic fascist or even a linguistic terrorist.
To publicly call someone a racist or an Islamophobe is highly defamatory and hence open to possible legal action. The laws of defamation in most Western countries generally state that the publication of any false imputation concerning a person is defamatory if:
Section (c) of the definition is particularly relevant to most people and, in particular, politicians and authorities.
What is needed is for someone with suitable resources to mount a defamation case against a perpetrator, and to establish a legal precedent.
As indoctrination starts at school, there must be a re-vamping of the school system. Instead of the evils of Western civilization promoted by Marxist history professors, there needs to be an emphasis on the benefits of Western civilization and a return to proven teaching methods along with a greater level of discipline.

Australia urgently must break free from the climate cult because of the global financial power now mobilised in the climate cause.
This power is beyond the control of any government or any public. It has no democratic legitimacy. It can make and break companies and redirect the trajectory of nations.
Anybody who thinks Australia can withstand these pressures is misguided. Former Bank of England governor Mark Carney, amid his departure declarations in 2019, warned: “Now $120 trillion worth of balance sheets of banks and asset managers are wanting this disclosure (of investments in fossil fuels).” Carney said companies and industries not moving to zero carbon emissions “will be punished” and those that don’t adapt “will go bankrupt without question”.
Overseas pension funds, like Australia’s superannuation funds, banks and insurance companies are responding to these pressures, climate change risk and the fear of stranded assets. The world economy is undergoing massive structural change in energy markets. Carney said net zero would change the value of every asset.
Australian banks are withdrawing from investing in coal mining ventures.
Net zero at 2050 is becoming the global financial norm in all operations. Green power and financial power have come together in an extraordinary alliance.
Global warming: the greatest scientific fraud in history
There are two very good reasons to ban, by way of high tariffs, the import of goods manufactured in China:
Many of the products are produced by alleged slave labour
The profits made on goods exported to Australia help prop up an evil regime
A report published by an Australian think tank revealed that as many as 83 internationally known brands – including Nike, BMW, Apple, Sony, Google, Lacoste, and Nintendo – have active ties to factories where evidence suggests the Communist Party has shipped Uyghur Muslims to engage in forced labor.
The Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI), a non-partisan think tank, revealed in its study that it had significant evidence of the Chinese communist regime shipping ethnic Uyghurs out of their native Xinjiang, or East Turkestan, to factories nationwide, where they endured long hours, barely received pay, and did not appear to be able to move freely.
The ASPI has identified 27 factories in nine Chinese provinces that are using Uyghur labour transferred from Xinjiang since 2017. Those factories claim to be part of the supply chain of 82 well-known global brands.
3. Lobby the federal government to tighten regulation of country-of-origin labelling so that consumers can readily identify products made in China.
