Dear SMH,
What happened to your motto; ‘Independent Always.’
The Wilcox cartoon regarding the clamour for a Royal Commission should not have caused an apology. Cartoonists play an important role in our democracy to spark debate and highlight issues that need broader considerations.

When this blows over I might have to share some of the emails I’ve received over the days which really make me wonder why I am the one accused of hatred. There is deep unresolved trauma being spewed by some of these people and we cannot consent to living according to their warped reality.

But this and the money goes to Radio Free Europe !!! Thanks REM ( they were defunded by Trump )
Vale Audrey Nash.
Very sad news with the passing of Audrey Nash. One of the most courageous women I have ever met. She never faltered in her fight to get justice for the survivors of clerical sexual abuse in the Newcastle #Catholic diocese - including for her own son, Andrew. Her story is in my book #TheAltarBoys.
I played a very small role in tonight’s Compass on ABC TV about former Newcastle Anglican Bishop, Greg Thompson in Adelaide. His bravery and that of survivor, Steven Smith should not be forgotten. Anne Manne’s #CrimesoftheCross is worth a read on this dark history. Catch it on @abciview #Anglican
The brave former Anglican Bishop of Newcastle - Greg Thompson - is on Compass now. Catch up on ABC Iview. Also featuring Steven Smith - who has campaigned for justice for survivors. Why does the Anglican Church treat him as outsider ? He stood up against clerical abuse cover up. #Anglican #Abuse
Aussies …Make sure you check your electricity / energy bill for the $300 Federal Govt rebate ! My company had not passed it on !!!! “…..households are eligible for up to $300 of energy bill relief, and eligible small businesses may receive up to $325. @acccgovau #electricity
America is *so* stupid.
A French University is funding a Safe Place For Science program meant to recruit scientists who cannot continue their work in the US. www.univ-amu.fr/fr/public/a...
Damn straight!
Very scary to hear Elon Musk call people’s US social security funds, ‘entitlements.’ In the U.S people have to pay into the scheme over years with THEIR OWN MONEY. It’s their money. Get your greedy hands off it. You are taking it to justify your tax cut.
Bravo. In the SMH today.
Update : including sexual, psychological and physical Abuse.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.
