The Great Feminisation has prevailed in the army.

Prime Minister Albanese has given a comprehensive demonstration of how pathetic he is. A newswire report today claimed that ‘this week, the Prime Minister was forced to backtrack after calling the former Australian of the Year [Grace Tame] a “difficult” woman. He later apologised, claiming he was referring to Ms Tame’s life.’
The prime minister does not even have the gumption to stick to a mild description of Grace Tame’s character. In the face of the usual feminist squealing, he scurried away like a panicking mouse.
There’s only one Australian politician who has the guts to fix this.
There are hundreds of YouTube channels giving advice about writing. The Bookfox channel is one of the better ones. In this video, advice for the first 20 pages of your novel is given.

Unless you want your book to bomb, do THIS in the first 20 pages.
Bettina Arndt’s article below starts off with the high-earning lollipop ladies, but its central theme is the gigantic screwing of men through DEI policy. Feminists have achieved that degree of power that they can blackmail and bully companies into accepting quotas of females merely because they are female. This is an irrational policy that weakens Australia, especially its business sector, which relies on employing the best people for the job.
If Pauline Hanson undertakes to destroy DEI policy with its weakening of Australia’s businesses, she’ll have the votes of the majority of Australians, particularly men.

It’s easy to see why Melbourne’s Swinburne University promoted Aimee Stanton as one of their “pioneers for women.” She’s blond, lively, attractive and she’s a “celebrity”, having been a contestant on Australian Survivor and a presenter on a Channel 7 television program.
Most important of all, she’s a qualified female plumber – a very rare breed indeed. No wonder Swinburne couldn’t resist including her in many media stories, including their Stories for a Brighter Tomorrow promotion, with a whole page dedicated to this Swinburne alum who “survived and thrived as a lady tradie”.
The university was obviously very happy to overlook Ms Stanton’s blemishes. Minor defects like being a self-confessed perpetrator of sexual assault.
Few people who have worked in an office have escaped the disturbance of the female disruptor. Tears are just the start of it.
There are dozens of videos of white Aboriginal Lidia Thorpe spewing her hatred of white people and giving her nonsensical version of Australian history. And the woke class just lets it pass by without a word – particularly the super-woke, government-funded SBS. Imagine if a man stood up in parliament and referred to Aboriginals as filth. That man would be lucky to escape with his life. Below are three videos that provide a sample of Thorpe’s disturbed mind.
Pauline Hanson will garner an enormous number of votes if she undertakes to shut down the Aboriginal industry, thus releasing billions of dollars for the benefit of all Australians, and not just a small minority, mostly made up of fakes.
