Excerpted from “Full Thoughts On Prof. Michael Sandel’s Meritocracy Discourse: Part 2“ Solidarity at the national level is preferable to having polarised societies, indeed, but the true challenges to a sustainable and thriving humanity depend on cohesion of the global community. That reality is increasingly understood in the battle against the climate crisis and itContinue reading “The Great Reset Era Theme: A global village based on ‘Quality Globalisation’”

Full Thoughts On Prof. Michael Sandel’s Meritocracy Discourse: Part 2
In the first part of this essay I expressed my support for Prof. Sandel’s views with some qualifications on what I believe are the most important factors in the polarised societies many developed nations are now experiencing.

Humanity Needs Good People In Tough Jobs
Firstly an admission – I am bogged down in writing part 2 of my response to Sandel’s ‘meritocracy’ discourse because it encompasses three large areas which I had intended to write individual posts on and for which I had developed extensive notes.

There are two main reasons for this.

I remember it for what Lowe said, which was, to paraphrase: “There have been a lot of rule changes made to speed up the game. I don’tContinue reading “On the 25 year Bastardisation of Rugby League to Appeal To People Who Do Not Love the Game”
Full Thoughts on Prof. Michael Sandel’s Meritocracy Discourse: Part 1

It is brilliant and one of the best-written books that I have had the pleasure of reading. Firstly let me say that from my perspectiveContinue reading “Full Thoughts on Prof. Michael Sandel’s Meritocracy Discourse: Part 1”
Australia Must Pivot To COVID-19 ‘Normality’ Once All Residents Are Offered Vaccination
In February 2020 I was one of the first to speak publicly of the need for Australia to shut the borders and aim to eliminate what was then referred to as ‘the novel coronavirus’. In my first post on the topic published 3 February “Social Cohesion: The best vaccine against crises” I highlighted the uniqueContinue reading “Australia Must Pivot To COVID-19 ‘Normality’ Once All Residents Are Offered Vaccination”
More Evidence of The Great Reset Era In Action
Australia is in the midst of “the biggest uprising of women’s power [the nation] has ever seen” following repeated revelations of sexual assault and harassment by male politicians and staffers. Grace Tame, Australian of the year, an advocate for sexual assault survivors, said comparing responses to the pandemic and to women’s rights: we can’t fixContinue reading “More Evidence of The Great Reset Era In Action”
