    Malcolm,
    There is a serious issue that needs to be addressed.

    Many climate change deniers and your readers accuse teachers of indoctrination / brainwashing their students into accepting that global warming / climate change is real.

    Recently (27 Jan 2023) I downloaded from the galileomovement.com.au/downloads site two documents allegedly prepared by a grade 10 student .

    The meta data associated with the file gives the author as Kelsey Roberts, the date appears to be 11/11/11 on the pdf speech.text file.
    The student’s teacher appears to have actively participated in the document preparation.

    The following is the introduction to the overall file as downloaded this morning.

    High school students and parents, here is a Powerpoint presentation and a speech by a Grade 10 high school student.
    CO2_powerpoint_for_speech.pptx
    speech_text.pdf

    The real concern is the lack of valid scientific data in both the PP presentation and the accompanying speech.
    Another concern, the obvious errors and accusations that have been the mantra for climate change deniers for the past 12 years or so.

    The matter needs to be rectified as soon as possible.

    Cheers,
    Col
    PS. I have placed this comment in both of today’s (17 Mar 2023) issues because of the necessity to explain the situation.

      When faced with claims of indoctrination and false information regarding the climate information that you are teaching, you could choose to take it as an invitation to continue to find the information “climate deniers” are proposing as contrary. I would certainly take the time to follow the gravy train of the “scientists” who provide evidence that secures their tenures, as it relates to the climate change agenda. There are many peer reviewed studies and examples of ice core samples, that enable us to see the natural cycles of time on our planet and how they are repeating. Understandably we are all busy, but choosing one or two resources that support the ideology that you teach, is really not enough – when one could potentially be teaching misinformation.

        Amanda,

        Sorry but the accusation of me indoctrinating and teaching students false information is rather dated, I am a retired science teacher and have not been before a class for the past 24 years.

        May I repeat myself? In reference to the documents mentioned, my main concerns are as follows:

        To quote.
        “The real concern is the lack of valid scientific data in both the PP presentation and the accompanying speech.
        Another concern, the obvious errors and accusations that have been the mantra for climate change deniers for the past 12 years or so.”
        Unquote.

        In reference to the past climate records from ice cores. please note they cover hundreds of thousands of years and yet human activity has increased atmospheric CO2 levels over the last couple of hundred years.
        There can be no contribution by humans to the CO2 levels over the time interval of these ice cores.

        An interesting sideline,
        About 12 years ago a person from the climate change denier fraternity submitted a document to a known news paper science reporter with the challenge it be evaluated within a fortnight.

        The alleged comment from the science reporter:
        “How does one critically evaluate a pile of horse shit?”

        There lies another concern.
        A large number of global warming / climate change deniers appear to be rather short on understanding the scientific principles involved.

        Cheers,
        Col

    Robert,
    I think to be fair the rental crisis goes far beyond immigration. Some years ago there were 50000 empty houses in Melbourne due to foreign investors.Laws need to be tightened up with regard to investors legally having to use the house of purchase or put it up as a rental. Besides which this illegal corporate state and federal governments have never planned sensibly for the low income groups and now many homeless because they don’t care. They have no heart, no vision and no conscience. Councils are an illegal entity that have sponged off their communities since the 1980’s Caravan parks should be attached to every municipality, not run as they are now by private profiteers. As in England it is a legal requirement to house the homeless.The problem needs to be fixed at the foundations. Some years ago when Japan went through an economic downturn, they built a 4 story building which consisted of a small room pull down bed sink, power points computer port and somewhere to hang your clothes. Public toilet and showers on each floor. A similar arrangement can be seen with Youth Hostel accomodation. Is this too f…. Hard to build??? Obviously those with alcohol and drug issues would have to have separate accomodation under supervision.
    Kind Regards

      Fully agree with you about the uselessness of duopoly and local councils. Add in hardy pushed by lefties “voice & land rent” and hardly any hope could be envisaged for my kids and grandchildren.

      State Governments managed to build “Prisons” almost immediately re the Covid Plandemic, use those.

      And WHY are all these migrants coming into Oz at a time when the Taxpayers, many citizens of Oz have been thrown out of work and so much more that their taxes should now be assisting with.

    400000 immigrants, it’s appaulling and benefits no one except those that have a business model based on low wages, a fat government that has spent and continues to spend beyond its means. Our governments have known for years our population is ageing and that the younger aren’t having children to replace the population base.
    The later of course has been the result of globalism and policies introduced like the Lima Declaration, the casualisation of the workforce in many forms has resulted in the young barely able to make ends meet, yet alone have a secure place to raise children.
    The answer over many decades, to support this failure, is too increase population by increasing population.
    It does nothing in providing a better life for the people of Australia, continues the status quo.
    This is not a series of poor judgements and policies, it’s in fact been the plan all along.
    Influential businesses and organisations both here and abroad, with the help of governments, have had this in play for a long time.
    We are the slow boiled frogs.
    Moreover and in my view, the plan is to wipe out the white Anglo race, this again is not an accidental event that is a consequence of immigration.
    Everything is back to front and societies around the world are in a dystopia.
    Immigration is the central part of all of it.
    Frankly Malcolm, I can’t see any difference is governments, hear or around the world, one side is about full on demise and the other is about bring about the demise more slowly.
    Any immigration is a net loss for Australians that don’t depend on a cheap labour force and profit by numbers and any immigration of non Anglo races is a genocide.
    The UK genocide is point in case and ours is approaching fast too. No longer will our values and connection to out past be relevant. People from other countries have values and connections to their heritage, they have no loyalty to this country or its founding stock, when they exceed us, they will govern in majorities
    it’s literally a sanctioned invasion.
    Lastly, nothing will ever change as long as we pander to global lobbyists and meaningfully start exiting from international treaties that are the legal framework of our slow but steady demise and start naming names instead of broadly grouping those that have harmed us and continue to do so.
    I think there is a grumbling about as people connected to this country’s heritage are slowly waking up and getting fed up with the values and societal expectations that are imposed on them that are not ours but I forced on us to enable themselves.
    This group is a vast web and they are global. They have many alliances.
    I think my awaking started with Trump. He spoke all the right words, then turned out to be in fact, no different. Left/ Right no difference, just how they boil us and the same goes here.
    It’s no coincidence that the overwhelming majority of the US congress supports Israel, the overwhelming majority of the key decision makers have historical connection to Israel.
    Anti defamation, equal rights, BLM, LGBQ+, gay marriage etc have all been installed not to protect human rights broadly, but to protect protect themselves so they can slow boil us and remain unaccountable in the part they play towards our demise.
    I commend One Nations efforts, but feel you are a lifeboat and we are within. We drift in a vast sea and there a series of tropical lows bearing down. Survival looks grim.

    the current immigration program is absolutely senseless – who are the benefactors?? certainly not the Australian people.

    Regarding the homeless – hasn’t every state built (very swiftly) Wellness Centres where they were intending to house international travellers who were to serve a covid quarantine period when arriving in the country – rather than taking up hotel accommodation. If these villages exist – why aren’t we using them? I hear that pressure is being put on those families with holiday homes and airbnb homes to put in permanent renters. But families want to use those premises themselves for their own family gatherings and should not be put under pressure when the Government owns so many empty and unused homes. Please investigate. p.s. we all think you are wonderful!
