By RosemaryJ36 Because people make a lot of money and end up as billionaires does not guarantee that they are honest, truth-telling individuals. Sadly! There are numerous links on Google, of which this is one, which tell us quite clearly that major oil companies (aided and abetted by all other fossil fuel companies) have totally pulled…
By Dr George Venturini A cast of characters: The Monarchy Most Australians ‘believe’ that Queen Elizabeth II is a figure head with virtually no political or financial power. Nothing could be farther from the truth. As the present head of the Windsor Dynasty, she is the sovereign head of state of the United Kingdom and…
“It is a strange coincidence that in the same years, in which Labor was creating beyond the Canberra Bubble, a work to last for decades, there was enacted in LNP headquarters one of the most extravagant political farces that were ever produced upon the stage of Australia’s history.

Forget the links, the oft’ quoted academic tome…forget the reams of verbose railing against this or that “Authentic History”… ”Researched Paper” or PhD on the subject … I’ll give you a rock-solid run-down on the course of events in both South Aust’ history and the formation of the Liberal Party on what will here be…
