Tim Flannery socks it to multiculturalists

Sunday, September 27th, 2009

Professor Tim Flannery, 2007 Australian of the year and one of Australia’s best known scientists, has spoken out against both high immigration and the need for multiculturalism.  Whilst Flannery’s views on Australia’s population are well known, it’s refreshing to hear a person that is held in such esteem also tackle the sensitive topic of multiculturalism.

Ageing of the population not solved by high immigration

Sunday, September 20th, 2009

In what is believed to be a world first, a white South African has been granted asylum in Canada due to the persecution he received from black people in his own country.  The black racists that had attacked him on different occasions had called him a ‘white dog’ and a ‘settler’.
