It’s time the ABC was privatised

In my view, the ABC no longer provides news and current affairs content that is relevant to mainstream Australians. This means that mainstream Australian taxpayers are funding the Woke, biased content that constantly streams from the so-called public broadcaster. Yet the ABC’s news and current affairs service only represents a narrow, left-wing audience. It is time the people who actually watch or listen to the ABC paid for it. It is time for the ABC’s news and current affairs service to be privatised.

Here is my latest article in The Spectator Australia's Flat White, "It’s time the ABC was privatised".

"Go fund yourselves..." That is the overwhelming sentiment directed at the #ABC after their appalling coverage of the #Coronation and decades of biased, politically partisan reporting.

Is it finally time to disconnect the ABC from the public teat?https://t.co/VqWfjOIqMl

Labor's Coal-Fired Green Dream

With cost-of-living pressures really starting to hurt Australians, Labor’s green dream would be a complete nightmare if it wasn’t for coal.

When then Treasurer Scott Morrison brought a lump of coal into the House of Representatives, the left-leaning media were quick to respond:

‘What a bunch of clowns, hamming it up – while out in the real world an ominous and oppressive heat just won’t let up’.

Fast forward to 2023 and Labor’s budget surplus has little to do with sound economic management, and much to do with unexpectedly high prices for exports of fossil fuels. And this is despite Labor’s running mates, the Greens, doing everything to demonise coal and gas.

In the real world, it takes more than just dreams to power the nation.

Here is my latest article in The Spectator's Flat White, Labor's Coal-Fired Green Dream.

"Without coal there is no green dream."

Michael de Percy lays down another authoritative piece on energy policy, in which he analyses the enormous economic benefits the fossil fuel industry brings to Australia: https://t.co/cCdBMNQdpa
