Now that Turnbull has stopped undermining the Liberal Party, he is finding it hard to change. There needs to be healing and the impetus to move forward. By hitting Knights and Dames, Turnbull does neither. The criticism of Mr Abbott's 'Captain's picks' was hysterical and unedifying. The order of Knights and Dames was relatively free and had the virtue of being cultural assets. We need cultural assets. Mr Abbott knew that. Mr Turnbull saw it as a cheap shot. And it still is a cheap shot. By delegating it to cabinet, Turnbull is rubbing the noses of the cabinet in it. Another act which isn't healing.
Hockey is leaving politics and some in Cabinet have been sacked by twitter. That isn't classy either. Turnbull now has an opportunity to do something right. The IPA have published a list of a hundred ideas that Turnbull could do to improve Australia. Some of them have already been done by Mr Abbott, but the senate, with Turnbull's encouragement, have opposed many of them. We need cuts to spending which will cripple us if they aren't made. We need to stop funding the NBN and let market forces run the internet. We need transport infrastructure and water from the northern rivers sent inland. We need state governments to run curriculum. We need freedom of speech. We need to maintain secure borders. We need to decide who comes to Australia. We need Japan to build our submarines so our forces have the world's best equipment. We need to stop funding left wing opposition through the ABC. We need to end union corruption. We need work choices. We need the judiciary to be independent of the ALP. We need to remove the climate change commission and the human rights council.
For some, at the moment, the Sex Party has more credibility.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

Beloved, as we lift our voices in praise, remember: The Lord crowns the humble with victory—not just in ancient psalms or distant stories, but in our lives today. In this season of renewed hope and leadership triumphs, let's act on His favor. Commit now: Humble your heart before God, pray for our nation's peace and the afflicted worldwide, and share this song with someone who's facing giants. Rise in faith—declare His delight over you, and step into the victory He's prepared. Amen. #CrownedWithVictory #Psalm149

(Verse 1 – Soft, building instrumentation, evoking God's intimate delight, Hillsong-style acoustic guitar and piano)
In the quiet of the dawn, You see us, Lord,
Your people, broken yet beloved, in Your sight adored.
From ancient psalms we sing, Your favor never fades,
You take delight in the humble, in the paths we've made.
Like Israel restored, from exile's chains set free,
You lift the lowly hearts, and crown them royally.
*(Chorus – Uplifting, repetitive, with rising vocals and drums, ...
Remember Patrick Henry's words: "Give me liberty or give me death." Don't let illusions of impossibility silence you—act today to ensure free speech endures for tomorrow. What's one step you'll take right now?
Free speech has been challenged before. In the US, World War I and World War II imposed wartime restrictions. The prolonged nature of the Vietnam War made such restrictions obvious, as did the war in Afghanistan. However, the failure of the press to remain free has led to remarkable academic debate. It is now claimed—and widely accepted—that free speech is illusory and not truly possible. Minor restrictions on style are said to mean that speech was never free. This view is Orwellian. What happened?
In antiquity, was there free speech in Athens when Socrates was ordered to leave? He drank poison rather than accept exile, but he had had his say. When Athens defeated Persia at sea, scuttling an invasion plan, the successful generals were ...
