By Jonathon Van Maren The Gallipoli Peninsula in January is quiet and empty. It is sporadically overcast, a bit nippy, and the perfect time to drive from place to place unimpeded by the hordes of tourists who descend on these sacred sites later in the year. My wife Charmaine and I spent a day driving…
By Jonathon Van Maren In one of the strangest and most terrifying news items I’ve seen in recent years, a docker from Humberside in Northern England was informed by police that had become the subject of a formal investigation after he retweeted a limerick making fun of transgenderism which apparently included the (undeniably true) lines,…
By Jonathon Van Maren Very few people are willing to say so out loud, but the transgender movement is doing something extraordinarily sinister to our society: It is advocating for (and engaging in) a mass experiment on our children.
