REMEMBER THE AUSTRALIANS WHO BEGGED CHAVEZ TO GUIDE US
Ten years ago Australia’s snowfield socialists wrote a grovelling invitation to the chief thug who has turned Venezuela into a hell. Remember this as you watch reports on people dying from starvation. “We, the undersigned citizens of Australia, would like to extend a warm invitation for you to visit our country,” read the letter to Hugo Chavez.
Ten years ago a tribe of Australia’s snowfield socialists wrote a grovelling invitation to the chief thug who has turned Venezuela into the hell you now see on your TV screens.
Remember this disgusting letter as you watch the reports on people dying from starvation or lack of medicines in a South American nation that should be rich, having the world’s biggest proven oil reserves.
Remember this shameful letter as you think of the more than 400 political prisoners now rotting in the Venezuelan regime’s jails and the more than 90 people killed since April at demonstrations demanding democracy.
Remember especially the names of the signatories to this document of shame: ABC presenter Phillip Adams, Greens senator Lee Rhiannon, propagandist John Pilger, CFMEU union officials including Andrew Ferguson and Joe McDonald, Labor senator Gavin Marshall, Muslim spokesman Keysar Trad, former Australian Democrats leader Natasha Stott-Despoja and Labor’s Meredith Burgmann, then president of the NSW Legislative Council.
What has happened in Venezuela should be taught in our schools as one more example of how socialism ruins countries.
Dozens of other senior union officials, some from the National Tertiary Education Union, also signed it, as did the head of the National Union of Students and Leftist academics such as Tim Anderson. So did Labor’s Wayne Berry, then Speaker in the ACT Legislative Assembly.
“We, the undersigned citizens of Australia, would like to extend a warm invitation for you to visit our country,” read the letter, addressed to Venezuela’s bombastic president, the late Hugo Chavez.

SO TALKING ABOUT FAKE ABORIGINES IS NOW ALLOWED?
Amazing. Now there's even a play about white people pretending to be black, and the woke Sydney Morning Herald praises it. What a change from the days when it joined the pack attack on me for writing about this astonishing race-shifting. Read on.
We can’t sell our freedom for Chinese-Australian votes
Australia has 1.2 million people of Chinese ancestry. Now there are warnings that the Liberals should go soft on the Chinese dictatorship, to keep those voters happy. That toxic identity politics is a danger to Australia and an insult to many of our Chinese. My column here.
ROY SPENCER: GOOGLE PUNISHED ME FOR REPORTING THE REAL TEMPERATURE
Dr Roy Spencer runs the world's most authoritative measurement of the world's temperature, using NASA satellites. Google has now demonetised his website, where he reports the results. It accuses him of spreading "harmful" news - which is that the planet is not warming anything like as fast as predicted. Here he speaks on The Bolt Report.
What worries me most about Albanese
