Those authorites are the famous climate scientists Margaret Thatcher, John Howard and Rupert Murdoch. New Zealand’s man-made warming | Herald Sun Andrew Bolt...

This week I have been up on the Gold Coast doing a story about Schoolies, that great Australian rite of passage where thousands of teenagers descend on Surfers Paradise in search of a booze-fuelled nirvana.

THE Liberals are tearing themselves apart again because John Howard failed to reform the party when he had the chance. IN two weeks it will be the 60th anniversary of the Liberals' finest hour, marking the ascension to power of a reborn Robert Menzies at the head of a party built to his specifications.
