For any association or secular institution to reach its first century is noteworthy and, in our times, remarkable enough in itself. That alone would be sufficient reason for us to join together tonight in this celebration of the centenary of the Fabian Society, brought into formal existence in London a hundred years ago this month. And, incidentally, I trust it will be noted in the appropriate quarters that those of us here tonight associated with the Australian Labor Party and the Australian Labor Government have been so far able to overcome our notorious prejudices as to celebrate a British institution - indeed in many respects a quintessential British institution.

     Older readers should well remember Dr David Mitchell, scholar, lawyer, minister and general Christian gentlemen. All of us need to refresh our minds about this truly great man, in the Eric Butler league, by obtaining a tremendous new book by Dallas Clarnette, Courageous for Truth and Justice (2019), which gives a fitting tribute to Dr Mitchell’s life and works.
     Such a book is necessary because Dr Mitchell was one of those quiet workers, who steadfastly keep working away defending traditional Christian Australia, especially institutions such as the constitutional monarchy, over many decades. He saw before many of us the civilizational threats that the 1960s revolution had rung in, most notably in law. Thus, Dr Mitchell engaged in numerous pro bono (none paying cases) to defend those who were being abused by the politically correct legal system. I recall him saying to me, when I asked him, perhaps 15 years ago, about how he got on with judges, “Well Ian, they must just think, here comes Mitchell again!”
     I want people to buy this book and support the author, so I am not one for spoilers. But I cannot resist reporting on an extraordinary case where a Christian group was facing what seems to be an early race-hate case. Dr Mitchell defended the group by the most unusual move of denying that the church as such existed, so there was no defendant! He kept this line of argument up for over a year until the court awarded for him! Dr Mitchell also helped in the famous Noah’s Ark case, aiding the Creationist’s case against an academic who was a critic of Christianity, but now is beloved by us because he is attacking global warming.
     Overall a most worthy book for a truly good man. If only all men were made of the same moral fibre of Dr Michell, we would not be facing the problems we now do. But, alas. Hopefully, the hard times ahead will create other worthy champions of truth, freedom and justice. I would imagine that copies of Dallas Clarnette’s book would be available from the League; nothing comes up on Amazon, which is hardly surprising.

     Just to jump the gun before the anti-gunners start rattling off about the need for tighter gun control following from the tragic NT shooting, the nutter who was on parole and even had a monitoring device on his leg, was in no position to have any firearm under the law, let alone a banned pump action shotgun:

“Witnesses described the shooter using a pump action shotgun to fire multiple blasts at the Palms Hotel and Buffalo Club. A victim was killed at each. Kershaw confirmed that the suspect was armed with a shotgun, but could not confirm what type. Pump action shotguns have been virtually banned from private ownership in Australia along with other rapid-fire weapons under the country's tough gun laws designed to prevent mass shootings.”

     Is all of this American coverage really necessary …  I mean, how does this affect us here in little old OZ? Consider this, that Australia has dodged a US tariff bullet for the time. But in the future, who knows, Trump is insane, as the Left rightly says:
  https://www.nytimes.com/2019/06/02/business/trump-australia-tariffs.html

“The Trump administration considered imposing tariffs on imports from Australia last week, but decided against the move amid fierce opposition from military officials and the State Department, according to several people familiar with the discussions. Some of President Trump’s top trade advisers had urged the tariffs as a response to a surge of Australian aluminum flowing onto the American market over the past year. But officials at the Defense and State Departments told Mr. Trump the move would alienate a top ally and could come at significant cost to the United States. The administration ultimately agreed not to take any action, at least temporarily. The measure would open yet another front in a global trade war that has pitted the United States against allies like Canada, Mexico, Europe and Japan, and deepened divisions with countries like China. It would also be the end of a reprieve for the only country to be fully exempted from the start from steel and aluminum tariffs that Mr. Trump imposed last year.

     We have been covering the rape of Europe for some time at this site. Here is an article updating this Gothic horror:
  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/14209/sweden-self-inflicted-mess

“According to an Amnesty International report, in Sweden, rape investigations are under-prioritized, there are "excessively long waiting times for the results of DNA analyses", there is not enough support for rape victims and not enough work is done for preventative purposes. In 2017, a Swedish police report, "Utsatta områden 2017", ("Vulnerable Areas 2017", commonly known as "no-go zones" or lawless areas) showed that there are 61 such areas in Sweden. They encompass 200 criminal networks, consisting of an estimated 5,000 criminals. Twenty-three of those areas were especially critical.... "I cannot bear to see children faring so badly.... There should be no doubt that the Government does what it can for these children [of ISIS terrorists] and if possible they should be brought to Sweden." — Swedish Foreign Minister Margot Wallström. Unfortunately, the horrific fate of enslaved Yazidi children does not appear to be something that Wallström "cannot bear".

     Controversy continues about Taylor Swift, the singing canary’s response to the question a journalist asked about her baby plans, which are none, apparently. Men don’t get asked those questions. Well, yes, they do. But, here is the take on this by Suzanne Venker, “Taylor Swift just proved my point about feminism’s harm on millennials.”
  https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/taylor-swift-just-proved-my-point-about-feminisms-harm-on-millennials

“Taylor Swift just proved my point. My last post was about feminism’s harmful influence on millennials; and less than 24 hours later, a friend sent me this USA Today article that highlights an interview Taylor Swift gave on a promotional tour in which a German reporter asks Swift if she has children or family on her mind since she turns 30 this year. A quick caveat: I feel compelled to write that this question shouldn't be asked of any woman, as it’s no one's business but hers. However, such probing questions by the media are inevitable at that level of fame. Swift is entitled to dodge the question, which she did. But her reason for not answering it speaks volumes: “I really do not think men are asked that question when they turn 30, so I’m not going to answer that now.” Here’s a newsflash for Swift and other young women who didn't get the memo: No one asks men that same question because men don’t have a biological clock. Women do. I know you’ve grown up believing since the day you were born that men and women are, or should be, sexual equals and should thus be treated as identical beings. But sexual equality is a bogus mission (which you will see in time if you ever do have children, for it is then that sex differences become glaringly obvious) because it's inextricably tethered to a progressive political movement that has no basis in reality.

     Here is an article from the American Thinker which we all would dispute, for we the enlightened ones know that immigration may have a few teething problems, but with enough of it, say in the billions, any group that was homogenous, can be made multicult, then with more migrants, ultimately homogeneous again, as the migrant populations displace the locals, which is what immigration has always been about. And, it is great for the economy too, makes the garden grow and all that. Still, in the public interest, let us explore this lack of wisdom:

“Somalis have Changed Minneapolis By Sunny Lohman
Everyone not lying to themselves predicted when the federal government under Bill Clinton – aided and abetted by Lutheran Social Services, Catholic Charities and World Relief Minnesota -- plopped 30,000 Somalis down into the midst of the kind, virtue-signaling, eager-to-help Midwesterners of Minneapolis (of which I am one) that it would lead to some grave consequences for our community. Now, due to continuing refugee placements as well as chain migration there are an estimated 80,000 Somalis living in the Twin Cities metro area, or more like 79,000 if you subtract those who’ve left the country to join terrorist organizations like ISIS. Anyhow, here’s a week Minneapolitans had with their Somali neighbors last month:

     Trump intends to flood America with legal immigrants to take all of the jobs that he supposedly created for Americans. With any luck the jobs will disappear quicker than the migrants can be brought in. Or maybe people will rise up against this madman. Meanwhile back in the real world, not orange-haired clown world, factories are being closed down:
  https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/06/02/laid-off-gm-workers-in-ohio-fed-up-with-ruling-class-nobody-has-our-backs/

“Middle-class Americans whose livelihoods have been thrown off course after being laid off by General Motors (GM) in Lordstown, Ohio, are fed up with the country’s political and business ruling class in Washington, DC.
For months, the community of Lordstown has had to grapple with GM closing the region’s assembly plant, which has resulted in the immediate layoff of about 1,600 American workers, and since 2017, GM has laid off about 4,500 American workers in Ohio. The GM plant closure is also expected to leave more than 8,000 American workers jobless in and around Lordstown as well as cut out about $8 billion in economic activity in the area. Already, more than 900 workers in supporting industries have been put out of work. At the same time, GM has announced that it will manufacture a slew of new vehicles in South Korea, while GM CEO Mary Barra still plans on idling three other American manufacturing plants — two in Michigan and one in Maryland.”

To The Age         You are perfectly entitled to defend "the principle of a free media" ("Media must report without fear", 6/6); and you are right to assert further that a free media has "a public-interest duty to report truthfully, responsibly and without fear or favour." Alas, as one who has read your paper regularly for over sixty years, I have to point out that you do not always live up to that ideal. Two areas of discourse at once come to mind. For some months you appear to have censored out of existence that large body of Australians firmly opposed to any form of "indigenous constitutional recognition" or treaty making with indigenous Australians. The other area is responsible right-wing culture, as manifested both in Australia and overseas. There is a yawning gap in your reporting and commentary. This greatly hinders the conservative cause in our nation. Your progressivist lens has been too narrow.
Yours sincerely,
  Nigel Jackson

To The Australian         Julian Lucas is wrong (6/6) in seeing "a treaty between Aborigines and non-Aborigines" as an act unlikely to "provoke legal interference with constitutional rights and duties." That is exactly what it would do. A minority of activists of various kinds, for whatever reasons, is endeavouring to drive a wedge between Aboriginal Australians and the rest of us. Constitutional amendment of any kind and treaty-making of any kind would facilitate their cause of Aboriginal separatism, but be against the interests of Australians as a whole. Moreover, it seems clear that no persons living today can justifiably claim to be of, or to represent, an Aboriginal nation; thus a valid treaty cannot be created. We all agree that indigenous Australians have a unique status and role to play in our national future. We all agree that they deserve special support and encouragement in many contexts. This can be done without crossing the red line towards the division of our continent into two nations.

     This is getting complicated and journalists with heaps of work naturally look for a quick and easy summary. Here is the best beast I could find:
  https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2019/06/02/daily-beast-says-facebook-helped-them-dox-trump-supporter/

“The Daily Beast recently doxed a black forklift driver and reported Trump supporter for the alleged high crime of creating a parody video of Democrat speaker of the house Nancy Pelosi. But there’s more to the story — it appears Facebook may have helped the left-wing journalists identify him. The Daily Beast identified the video creator as Shawn Brooks, whom they described as a forklift driver and Trump supporter from the Bronx. A Twitter account claiming to be Brooks disputed key details of the story, claiming he is not a Trump supporter, did not create the parody video, and does not live in the Bronx. By doxing Brooks, The Daily Beast followed the example of CNN, which threatened to unmask an anonymous Trump supporter over a parody video, forcing to him apologize in exchange for not revealing his identity. The scandal caused “CNNBlackmail” to trend on Twitter. But there’s another aspect to the Daily Beast story which has major implications for the privacy of Facebook users — according to The Daily Beast reporter himself, Facebook gave him information on Brooks’ activity on the platform.

     Granny where did you get that rocket launcher? That turn of phrase came to mind when seeing by accident the latest clip of the forthcoming Terminator: Dark Fate movie. This franchise built upon the original “I’ll be back” movie (1984) with classic Arnie Schwarzensplatter, before he became a Dumocrat climate doomster.

     Hollywood is now churning out social justice warrior movies, where old male action figures are replaced by girl power feminists of all races. Good for them. White males simply do not need to waste good money on this garbage, and would be better off putting the money spent paying to be kicked in the gonads, towards manly activities such as red meat, hard liquor, guns, swords, bowie knives, battle axes, combat machetes, power tools, and sheds to build mancaves to keep all of this stuff in. Who needs movies anyway? Real men like me star in their own adventure movie, every day. You should too.

     People seem to be getting behind the British doctor who was dragged over metaphorical broken glass and drawn and quartered and all the things that medieval English did, that are in a way now back on the menu. Oh, this doctor committed the unforgivable sin for the new regime:
  https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7047775/Bid-save-doctor-forced-Muslim-veil-row.html

“More than 11,000 people have rallied behind a doctor under investigation for asking a Muslim woman to remove her veil during an appointment. Supporters have signed an online petition in huge numbers demanding Dr Keith Wolverson, 52, keep his job to 'protect his reputation'. The petition also called on the General Medical Council (GMC) to 'treat this man fairly and look at all the evidence' after it was revealed a complaint had been made to them by the patient following the incident at Royal Stoke University Hospital. The doctor said he is unable to find work and is planning to quit medicine and retrain as a cosmetic practitioner. Dr Wolverson claims the woman did not object when he ‘politely’ asked her to remove the face covering, adding he only asked because he was struggling to understand what she was saying about her sick daughter. But her husband later made a complaint and last week the locum GP was shocked to receive a letter from doctors’ regulator the General Medical Council. It said that he was being investigated over allegations of racial discrimination which could result in him being struck off.

     Being a bit of an anti-civilisation barbarian wildman type myself, I was impressed by the arguments given by my favourite neo-masculine Iranian/Armenian non-white writer, Roosh V, about how it all will probably end. He makes the point from history that all civilisations fell apart, generally from internal corruption that allowed more aggressive barbarians to smash their societies to smithereens. Look, there are even scholars, such as Peter Heather in Empires and Barbarians (2012), arguing that ancient Rome fell primarily from barbarian invasions, not over-taxation and other things that obsess conservatives and libertarian free market fanatics:

But, here is a selection of Roosh V’s thoughts

     How low can we go? Plenty and we probably have not hit rock bottom yet. Boy, I am sure glad I am as old as I am so that I will not live through the final stages of this. Who said that death, even if it meant total annihilation (which we Christians reject, but go with the argument for now), is so bad?
  https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2019/05/20/college-admissions-bribe-scandal-mastermind-told-white-students-to-lie-about-race/

“New reports claim that college admissions scam mastermind William “Rick” Singer told white students to lie about their race on their college applications. According to a report from the New York Post, college admissions scandal mastermind William “Rick” Singer encouraged white clients to lie about their child’s race on their college applications. According to Singer, not doing so would put their children at a “competitive disadvantage” to other students. The source that provided this information claimed that Singer had one student apply to colleges as a Native American. However, the student had no Native American ancestry. “There was nothing Native American about this kid,” the source said. Singer plead guilty to multiple charges related to a wide-ranging scandal that involved celebrities like Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman as well as major business leaders. Assistant US Attorney Eric Rosen said in March that Singer had a pattern of lying about student’s ethnicities in order to increase their chance of college admission. As a part of the scandal, Singer transferred a large sum in bribes from parents to athletic coaches who would classify the client’s child as an athletic recruit, even if the child did not play the sport. Singer also hired adult standardized test experts to take tests like the SAT and ACT for the students. In some cases, Singer had children manipulate mental health professionals so that they could be classified as needing extra time on college entrance exams. In those cases, an exam proctor hired by Singer would correct the student’s wrong answers before submission to increase their score.

     It is coming, full-on medical fascism, since there can never be enough profits for Big Pharma.
  https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-05-21-vaccine-pushers-believe-government-force-chemotherapy.html

“Medical fascism is on the rise in America as left-wing medical tyrants push mandatory vaccines and mandatory chemotherapy on the masses, even while they are screaming that the government should “get your hands off my body” when it comes to abortions. According to the twisted, deranged philosophy of Leftists, it’s okay to murder a child that has just been born (infanticide), meaning they assign zero value to a human life. By the same psychopathic thinking, Leftists also believe government can force any human being at gunpoint to be injected with extremely toxic substances that kill living cells and cause permanent damage to the heart, kidneys and brain (chemotherapy agents are derived from the chemical weapons of World War I). We have now entered an era of sheer insanity pushed by the zombified Left, where they believe it’s okay to murder human babies, physically maim their own children in the name of “transgenderism,” and force risky medical interventions on people without their consent. This is medical fascism run amok, and it’s being pushed by radical left-wing Democrats like Calif. state senator Richard Pan, also known as “the Vaccine Joker.” Your ownership over your own body is now being overrun by medical fascists and left-wing lunatics who value no life at all.”

     There are more illegals crashing through the US system than ever before in US history, and Trump, while talking tough has done nothing to stop them. As Commander-in-chief of the Armed forces, he could stop fighting wars for those who own him for just a moment and secure the US borders using soldiers. Ignore the courts, do what China would do, for they are the new fountain of wisdom:

     Instead, Central America is emptying as whole towns flock to the border to come do what the president of Mexico said they should, enjoy the benefits of America. That is, millions of migrants in a chain of migration that simply makes North America in to South America. Are the Dumocrats and the rich business elites who profit from cheap labour ready for what is coming, or are they so insane that they do not care, or cannot think? Both, perhaps.

     No, impossible to give quotes as too much horror and profanity. Music about killing and raping whites, the usual stuff. I imagine that the main audience would be ethno-masochistic white university students wanting to be cool. In the end they may end up cooler than they might wish. Like this, viewer discretion, strong anti-white sentiments, violence, sex scenes, definitely R-rated etc., but mainstream from Rihanna with 145 million + views:

     This moves everything absurd into the impossible category. What happens when someone who did not want to have sex at all, and ran in the other direction goes down for rape? Why not have a lottery with all men’s names in and just Randomly draw out a name every few minutes to prosecute or execute? Can the system get more putrid? Sure, it can, because as always, good men do nothing, or so little that it simply gets washed away:
  https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2019/05/21/columbia-student-woman-accused-him-of-rape-after-he-denied-her-advances/

“A male student at Columbia University is claiming in a recently filed lawsuit that a female student falsely accused him of rape after he denied her advances. According to a report from the New York Post, expelled Columbia University student Ben Feibleman has filed a lawsuit against the university. Fiebleman claims that the university wrongly expelled him from the school after a female peer falsely accused him of rape. Moreover, Fiebleman claims that the female student only accused him of rape after he refused to sleep with her. According to the lawsuit, Fiebleman and the female student were engaging in consensual kissing before he ultimately decided to slow things down. Fiebleman pointed out that they must stop because the female student had a boyfriend at the time. At that point, the female student allegedly began to verbally berate Fiebleman.

     This one could have gone to James for a “the academics are mad and bad approach,” but I drew the straw. So, unborn babies are “parasites”:
  https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2019/05/21/scientist-professors-claim-that-unborn-babies-are-parasites-is-borderline-satanic/

“A professor at the University of California, San Diego, told his students that unborn babies are “parasites” during a class lecture. Now, a scientist from LSU is pushing back against this absurd claim. Breitbart News reported in April that University of California San Diego Professor Pascal Gagnuex told students that fetuses are a “legitimate parasite.” The lecture then compared fetuses to a “cancer” that “rapidly grows,” and “invades” the body. Gagneux has pushed back against criticisms of the slide, arguing that he was not trying to make a political point. “Most of you probably realize that my point was to show that mammals are especially prone to invasive cancers because mammals evolved invasive placentation,” Gagneux wrote. “My point was not to indoctrinate you with the notion that fetuses are cancers, as insinuated in the article.” Scientist and associate Professor Michael Behnke of LSU, who specializes in studying parasites, told the College Fix this week that Gagnuex’s description of unborn children is not only incorrect but also “borderline satanic.” “A parasite is something that takes from a host without providing any significant benefit to that host. An unborn baby carries half the genes of the mother. In a purely gene-centered view of biology, the baby will benefit the mother in the most fundamental way. The more children the mother gives birth to, the more genes she passes on, the more benefit she derives in a biological sense,” Behnke said. A spokesperson for UC San Diego told Fox News that the slides represent an accurate scientific analysis of unborn babies. “The slide presents common, widely accepted scientific concepts and in no way represents a political statement,” the spokesperson said.”
