As our countries are collapsing under the weight of wokeism, social and communist ideology, who else is looking for a leader to fight back? I know that I am. As has been the case in all times of humanity's struggle against oppression and totalitarianism, all it takes is one man, one voice, one leader.... and the troops will rally.
" Upon this battle depends the survival of Christian civilisation. Upon it depends our own .... life, and the long continuity of our institutions..... The whole fury and might of the enemy must very soon be turned on us. .... But if we fail, then the whole world will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science. Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties..... men will still say, "This was their finest hour." - from Winston Churchill ( excerpt)

How often do we lament that we do not have visionaries and forward thinkers in business and government today? People who say " CAN DO " instead of " You CANNOT DO that. "
I was all set to publish a piece for today when I chanced on a phrase about Margaret Thatcher being the " Iron Lady.": Well, of course, my mind went into its usual strange mode whereby it focuses on one word and ends up in an entirely different place than the place it had originally been heading. Instead of writing about the lack of political leadership around the world, I ended up writing about Iron Ore.
And how an Australian and an American collaborated and changed the future of Australia forever. But, in a strange way, I did end up where I intended to be. I just came via a different route. So enjoy my journey through the Pilbara, the shipyards of WWII in America and ending up at my destination: Great Minds and Determination are needed right now. It is time to get back to building wealth, not destroying it.

Yesterday, one of our community members spoke about a film he watched called " Black and White." I had recently watched it and it triggered mixed emotions in me. It was based on the case of Max Stuart. It remains one of Australia's most controversial legal battles, marking a turning point in discussions around Indigenous rights, the death penalty, and potential miscarriages of justice in the country.
Today, I wonder what the outcome would have been. A case that never made it to the courts because of Cultural Differences? A case never discussed in media because of Misinformation laws? Never championed by the Christian Church because it might upset the Islamists? Have we as societies become so precious about diversity that Justice is no longer part of our vocabulary because it is not inclusive enough?
It was two men - Rupert Murdoch, the now enemy of the Left and Father Tom Dixon, a passionate Priest from the Catholic Church who saved this Aboriginal man from the noose. If "they " are to destroy the Church and hobble the media, who will come to the rescue when it is our turn?
