Warning to all Muslims the world over seeking asylum and protection from the manifestations of their faith.
Do not under any circumstances come to Australia, for we are a Nation founded upon Judeo Christian Law and principles and as such Australia is an anathema to any follower of the Paedophile Slave Trader Mohammad's cult of Islam.
There is no ideology more hated and despised in Australia than Islam.You simply would not like it here.

When those sworn to destroy you,Communism, Socialism,"Change you can Believe in" via their rabid salivating Mongrel Dog,Islam,take away your humanity, your God given Sanctity of Life, Created in His Image , If you are lucky this prayer is maybe all you have left, If you believe in God and his Son,Jesus Christ, then you are, despite the evils that may befall you are better off than most.

Lord, I come before You with a heavy heart. I feel so much and yet sometimes I feel nothing at all. I don't know where to turn, who to talk to, or how to deal with the things going on in my life. You see everything, Lord. You know everything, Lord. Yet when I seek you it is so hard to feel You here with me. Lord, help me through this. I don't see any other way to get out of this. There is no light at the end of my tunnel, yet everyone says You can show it to me. Lord, help me find that light. Let it be Your light. Give me someone to help. Let me feel You with me. Lord, let me see what You provide and see an alternative to taking my life. Let me feel Your blessings and comfort. Amen.

"The chief weapon in the quiver of all Islamist expansionist movements, is the absolute necessity to keep victims largely unaware of the actual theology plotting their demise. To complete this deception, a large body of ‘moderates’ continue to spew such ridiculous claims as “Islam means Peace” thereby keeping non-Muslims from actually reading the Qur’an, the Sira, the Hadith, or actually looking into the past 1400 years of history. Islamists also deny or dismiss the concept of ‘abrogation’, which is the universal intra-Islamic method of replacing slightly more tolerable aspects of the religion in favor of more violent demands for Muslims to slay and subdue infidels"

Australia's Labor Green Loon VOTE People celebrate Assassination of Curtis Cheng.





The Filth, the Godless Swine,that the Progressives have facilitated and enabled to walk among Australians, that is depicted below are only on Australian Soil because of the Immigration Policies of the former  Labor Whitlam / Grassby, Government's and the Fraser Liberal Government.

No doubt these Swine have been emboldened by the Election within the Liberal Party of the Progressive Leftist Malcolm Turnbull to the office of leader of the party and as such to the office of Australian PM.

Video Footage of Killer after Muslims celebrates closer ties with Turnbull Government by Murdering Civilian Police Employee outside Parramatta Police Station


Successive Labor and Liberal Governments have ensured that Muslims are able access via immigration and terrorise Australian Society with their Koran Inspired Satanic acts of Murder, Fraud Assault,Embezzlement,Insurance Fraud, Armed Robbery,Home Invasion Random Shootings,Abduction,Female Genital Mutilation,Gang Rape,Unbridled Rampant Blasphemy, protected in law by the Labor Green Loon Progressives  ideology of Multiculturalism, rendering any criticism of their shared Islamic agenda as been Racist, Bigoted and more recently Islamophobic.
Whilst former PM Tony Abbott was trying to reverse the ingrained bias towards Islamist in Australia's immigration he was unfortunately removed from office by a cabal of Islamist friendly members of the Liberal Party and was replaced by Leftist Progressive Malcolm Turnbull. 

Abbott just had to go, he was a lone voice speaking for Australians in area's of Immigration, Border Protection and a demand that Australia get out of debt.
Abbott was an enemy of the Progressive Left and their Media Cheer squad.

Muslims welcomed Turnbull's appointment as leader of the Liberal Party and Prime Minister of Australia a day after their public announcement of their appreciation and endorsement of Turnbull's elevation to the Office of Australian PM, a Pious Muslim visited the Mosque at Parramatta and then went to Parramatta Police Head quaryters and Assanissinated Civilian NSW Police employee Curtis Cheng on the footpath outside the door step of the Parramatta Police Headquarters.
Thankfully his Islamist Assassin was shot dead by NSW Police Special Constables within seconds of his vile act of Islamic Koran inspired Terrorism.

Hizb ut-Tahrir head Sheik Ismail Alwahwah refuses to condemn killing Farhad Jabar’s attack

Ben McClellan
The Daily Telegraph
October 4 2015



HIZB ut-Tahrir spiritual figure Sheik Ismail Alwahwah yesterday declined to condemn teen terrorist Farhad Jabar’s attack at police headquarters after a rally yesterday.

When asked about the 15-year-old’s execution of police finance worker Curtis Cheng, he would not comment about what happened in Parramatta on Friday. “Why not Saturday, Sunday or Monday? I know nothing,” he said.

In his speech at the Lakemba rally to protest against foreign intervention in Syria, Sheik Alwahwah claimed that foreign governments were attempting to carve up the Middle East.

Farhad Jabar’s attack at police headquarters left one innocent man dead.
“We will make sure that a new leadership, a new ideology to educate the world and save the human being. No one can stop us. We are ready to pay the price. This world belongs to the creator,” he said.

Muslims gathered at what they described as an “emergency community demonstration” to condemn the US’s bombing campaign against IS in Syria and Russia’s recent intervention.

Senior Hizb ut-Tahrir member Wassim Doureihi said before the rally that Islamic State was not to blame for the escalating violence.

“ISIS, like many organisations, is a bogeyman that’s conveniently used to justify Western military aggression in that part of the world,” he said. “The issue has never been ISIS, this a war against the Muslims in Syria and prevents them from obtaining their own political will and destiny.


“America has subcontracted its military efforts to Russia after Hezbollah failed to do the job, after Iran’s mercenaries failed to do the job. I’m confident Russia’s efforts will fail and America will intervene directly.”

More than 70 people, including more than a dozen children, attended the hour-long rally that railed against the “West”” and condemned Russia.

Soadad Doureihi said the “enemies of Allah” would not stop the “blessed revolution” against Assad, which is being waged by various rebel groups.



“America is still trying to find a suitable alternative and a solution for its interests in Syria ... continues to enlist more nations in its brutal campaign,” he said.

“Russia who has always been a willing accomplice in spilling Muslim blood has resumed bombings in Syria.

“These cowards who have a long history in harming Muslims, they will also find the same fate as they did fighting the Mujahideen of Afghanistan.”

Nothing to see here Please move along................Oh and don't HATE those sworn to destroy you.





“The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets and the faithful our soldiers...”

―Recep Tayyip Erdogan,  The Moderate Islamic leader of Turkey, the man US President Obama said he most wants his daughters to emulate, the world leader he admires MOST.


All good, nothing to see here,If ONLY Australians could get it through their thick skulls that they deserve to be killed gang raped stabbed shot bashed stolen from by Muslims there would be Peace.

Australians must not HATE their boastful Muslim Executioners,Gang Rapists,Shooters,Knifers, Robbers,Assailant's for to do so would be Racist and Bigoted, and above all else there is nothing worse than been a Racist Bigoted Australian is there ?

By The Way Remember Islam Means Peace and therefore only Peace can come of the enactment of the edicts of the "Holy Koran"

Its a win win Australian's Die and there is even more Peace.


Is Farhad Khalil Mohammad Jabar. yet another product of the Islamic Industry from Sydney's Occupied Territories ?

Did this Racist manifesto by Sydney media Darling and go to Muslim / Community leader Keysar Trad inspire the thankfully now dead Islamic Sociopath who cold bloodedly 
murder Curtis Cheng outside Parramatta Police Station?




Zakey Mallah a graduate of the Lakemba Mosque de radicalisation,rehabilitation course for people who are "Good Pious Muslims" taken under the wing of Keysar Trad and the Lakemba Mosque after, 2015,Mr Mullah's first run in with Australian Anti Terror Officers.


Mr Trad is a Pious  "Moderate" Muslim Community Leader, fawned upon by Australia's leftist progressive main stream media and is a resident in Sydney Australia's Occupied Territories located in South Western Sydney.
In his publication  Nida'ul Islam magazine(http://www.islam.org.au), December - January 1996-97] December 97 / Janurary 97 wrote this about the Chinese.




"The Chinese are also actively practicing their form of elitism on minorities in their country and abroad with persecutions of Muslims, and the entering into treaties with Russia and other countries to counter the growing threat of the"Islamic Menace"
The article is reproduced in full below scroll.

Unlike Mr Trad and his Co Religionists,the Chinese residents in Sydney and indeed all of Australia have a well deserved proud and respected history in Australia.
They are industrious and seek excellence at every available opportunity to them in whatever field of scholarship or employment they enter.The "Chinese" work ethic is well known and respected.

The "Chinese Australians" have never demanded special privileges based on their race or beliefs,unlike Mr Trad's Co Religionists they simply GET ALONG with their fellow Australians at any and all opportunities available to them,my,our,country Australia is all the better for our "Chinese Australian's".
I am yet to see any  evidence where my country, our country, is better for the Whitlam Grassbey Labor  / Fraser Liberal and subsequent Governments of both Political sides over the past 35 years and their obsession with  unbridled Islamic Immigration.




Was Mr Curtis Cheng Slaughtered because he was an Australian, an Australian of Chinese descent,an Infidel the lowest of the low,or just because he was an employee of the NSW Police Force ?

Whatever reason, all or one of the above is, according to Pious Muslims and their Koran, they are good enough reasons to kill him and ensure a "Pious Muslim" a place in Muslim "God allah's, "Paradise" where all the forbidden perversions of the Non Muslim earthly world are freely available for eternity, a bit like Sodom and Gomorrah where anything goes for eternity. 


“The penis of the Elected never softens. The erection is eternal; the sensation that you feel each time you have sex is utterly delicious and out of this world, and were you to experience it in this world you would faint. Each chosen one [i.e., Muslim] will marry seventy [sic] houris, besides the women he married on earth, and all will have appetizing vaginas.”
Koran 52:24
…Round about them will serve, to them, boys (handsome) as pearls well-guarded.
Koran 56:17
…Round about them will serve boys of perpetual freshness.
Koran 76:19
…And round about them will serve boys of perpetual freshness: if thou seest them, thou wouldst think them scattered pearls.O the joy of sodomy!
A poem in 'Perfumed Garden' by Abu Nuwas:
So now be sodomites, you Arabs.
Turn not away from it therein is wondrous pleasure.
Take some coy lad with kiss curls twisting on his temple
And ride as he stands like some gazelle standing to her mate.
A lad whom all can see girt with sword and belt not like your whore who has to go veiled.
Make for smooth-faced boys and do your very best to mount them,
for women are the mounts of the devils


I am not suggesting that Mr Trad has any direct involvement in the Death of Mr Curtis Cheng but words have meaning and sometimes tragic consequences.

The Islamic Koran is a perfect example of HATE Speech Hate for the "other" Hate for those who refuse to kneel at the alter of HATE and savagery and worship Islam's allah invented by the most infamous "Prophet" Mohammed, a male the Islamist's call the "Perfect Man"

"The Perfect Man" Mohammed a boastful, Thief,Gang Rapist,Mutilator, Be header,Paedophile,Slave Trader, Mass Murderer,Sadist,and Polygamist, its easy to see how Muslims today are so readily excused for their support of or engaging in acts of barbarism and  savagery in the name of their ideology when their "Prophet " set such a LOW bar for his followers to jump.

Leftist Progressive apologists for Islam share so many common values starting with unbridled savagery directed towards any and all who do not share their same world view.

Islam for the Leftist Progressives is like having a Rabid Mad Dog that they can let off the leash and set it upon the Neighbours that they don't like, and if the victims object they can be legally called Racists, Bigots,Islamophobe's  (Dog Haters) their Rabid Mad Muslim Dog simply calls them Infidels.
No matter what the Progressives naughty, but ever so fashionable Dog of Islam does, it is protected from sanction by a new  perverted definition of Racism and Bigotry.
The Progressive Left the United Nations and in Australia the the ACTU GetUp funded Labor Green Loon Independent Co Party, has designated that a belief in the Koran automatically ascribes the follower with a Race, and as such any criticism of the follower of Islam is Racism,Bigotry , Islamophobia.

The reality in Australia, today, 2015, is that any Australian who objects to the stated boastful objectives and acts of  Muslims irrespective of their Godless savagery  is by definition a Racist, a Bigot an Islamophobe.

Australia's Prime Minister and the Leftist Opposition Leader have demanded that Australian's "not hate" ..... sorry they do not mean that Muslims stop hating Australians they are demanding that Australian's not HATE Muslims for what they say they will do and what they DO to Australian's and have DONE to Australians.

Both these Arse Clowns are demanding that Australians not HATE their Executioners,they demand that Australians LOVE those who have killed us, are yet to  kill us, and boast of their intention to kill even more of us at every opportunity available to them because well after all "it's their way", it's in the Koran and Islam means Peace and after all we all want Peace right? so the sooner Australian's get out of the way either convert or agree to become slaves or better still agree to be executed the sooner Peace will reign over the House of War.

Islamic leader Amhad Malas calls on Malcolm Turnbull to restart relationship with Australian Muslims
ABCBy political reporter Tom IgguldenOctober 2 2015
An Islamic community leader is calling on Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull to reset the Federal Government's relationship with Australia's Muslims.
Amhad Malas, a director of the Lebanese Muslim Association, told The World Today the community was encouraged by Mr Turnbull's promise to be a consultative Prime Minister.
"Because the community is really longing to see a change, we're really hopeful that will extend to the Muslim community," he said.
Mr Malas said former prime minister Tony Abbott's use of phrases like "team Australia" and his admonishment that Muslim leaders had not done enough to combat radicalisation had damaged relations.
"It definitely has had a severe effect on the relationship between the community and the Government and we really want to see that change," Mr Malas said.
He issued an invitation for the Mr Turnbull to visit Western Sydney, which many of Australia's Muslims call home.
It's very important that these relationships are now intensified at the national level.
"He'll be welcome, and I think it's needed also so he gets a real feel for the issues that are facing the community, and definitely our doors are open for that," Mr Malas said.
Assistant Minister for Multicultural Affairs, Connie Ferriveinte-Wells, said the Government is looking a ways to improve the relationship with Muslim groups.
"It's very important that these relationships are now intensified at the national level," she told Radio National Breakfast.
"Our communities do feel alienated, they feel as though events overseas and the Middle East have impinged on their relationship, not just with government but broader Australia.
"I think its really important that those relationships are revisited."


Parramatta shooting: Farhad Khalil Mohammad Jabar named as killer of Curtis Cheng

Parramatta shooting: Multiple shots fired outside police HQ on Charles Street

Janet Fife-Yeomans, Lia Harris, Cathy Morris and Taylor Auerbach
The Daily Telegraph
October 3 2015.






  • Victim, a police IT worker, was ‘simply leaving work’ when shot dead
  • Shooting happened outside Police HQ in Parramatta at 4.30pm
  • Gunman shot dead by Special Constables after gunfight
  • Children were trapped in daycare with dead body at door
  • THE gunman who shot dead a police staffer was a 15-year-old who had visited Parramatta Mosque on his way to commit murder.


The teenager, a naturalised Australian who arrived with his family from Iran, had walked to the police headquarters in Charles Street from his home in North Parramatta before opening fire on a civilian police employee.

Police are today trying to trackdown the teenage killer’s family who may have left the area.

His victim was a father-of-two, a son and a daughter, who is understood to have worked in the finance area for police.

Witnesses have told The Saturday Telegraph that after shooting dead the civilian employee, the teenager ran up and down infront of police headquarters waving his handgun in the air and shouting: “Allah. Allah.”

It was then that two special constables on security duty ran from the police building and shot the gunman dead.

Police are trying to find out who radicalised the teenager.

He had no identification on him and it is understood to be his brotherwho rang police and said he thought he knew who the gunman was.


Security may be beefed up at tomorrow’s NRL grand final following the incident.





The bodies of the victim and the shooter were removed earlier this morning.

Charles St is still completely blocked from Macquarie St to George St, with only residents being allowed past the cordons.

Last night Police Commissioner Andrew Scipione described the incdient as a “brutal crime” after reviewing CCTV footage.

“An employee of the NSW Police Force has been callously murdered,” he said.

“I viewed a number of pieces of footage. I can tell you this was a brutal crime. A terrible crime.”

The gunman, walked past one ­female police officer before shooting the civilian employee in the back of the head.

It is not certain if the victim was known to the gunman, who had still not been identified late on Friday night.

Mr Scipione said the vision showed the civilian employee was “targeted”.

The attacker remained on the street after killing the public servant with a single shot and got into an exchange with special constables working in the building.

The commissioner praised the bravery of the special constables guarding the entrance, who have full police powers and who were sprayed with bullets by the gunman before he was shot dead.

He said police had not ruled out that the gunman, who had no identification on him, was working with others, although it was too soon to know the motive.


The Saturday Telegraph has learned messages had been sent to police to be on alert because people had been seen taking photographs of the entrance to the building, which houses the crack major crime squads.

Sources said the building had been “cased” and there had been “chatter” in recent weeks about a potential ­attack, but the target was not clear.

“There has been activity around a number of locations in NSW, they’re the things we communicate to our ­officers,” Mr Scipione said.

He said a major events team was looking at the incident with a view to the NRL grand final, but said security for the match at the ANZ Stadium on Sunday night was already high.
Police flooded the area and shoppers ran in panic as a 2km exclusion zone was declared around the building after the shootings at about 4.30pm on Friday.

Officers in body armour patrolled Parramatta CBD as police declared it a Level 1 critical incident, the most serious level there is.

The two bodies lay on the pavement covered in white sheets at the doorway of a childcare centre. The group of children were locked inside the centre after one of the bodies lay at the door.


Father Dennis Entriken told The Daily Telegraph they all hoped their kids had been spared the sight and sounds of the horror.

“Unfortunately the children are still inside — we can’t get access to them and they can’t come out,” he said.

“Because one of the bodies is quite literally on the ground at the entrance to the childcare centre.”

The parents have since been reunited with their children.


Police seized a backpack from the footpath in front of Parramatta Public School about 300m from the bodies.

The black backpack — branded with a white “Nike” slogan — had been cordoned off inside a secondary crime scene.

It is understood a number of other items were also photographed and seized by forensic police.

Witnesses to the shooting said the gunman had been waving the gun above his head.

“I saw him pacing up and down at police headquarters with a gun above his head, he was yelling something and dressed in a black robe,” witness Edwin Almeida said.

“He was wearing something that could be mistaken for a priest’s outfit. It was a black robe, but he definitely wasn’t a priest.” Mr Almeida, whose office is opposite the police headquarters, said four or five shots were fired.

“He was screaming and running towards the police building … he looked agitated,” he said.

“There was blood everywhere.”




Shopkeeper Sammy Shak told The Daily Telegraph he saw two bodies on the ground after hearing “six shots at least”.

“When I went out there was two bodies on the floor and there was cops everywhere all around the area and they told me to go inside the shop straight away,” he said.

Another witness who lives in an apartment opposite police headquarters said he heard the shooting.

“I finished work and was in the shower and I heard the gunshots,” the man, who asked not to be named, told The Daily Telegraph.

“I heard six or seven gunshots and it was pretty loud.

“In two to three minutes there were cops everywhere.”

One worker, whose colleague witnessed the shooting, told The Daily Telegraph she was left shaken after watching an exchange of gunfire.

Residents who live near the police headquarters said they heard three or four “bangs”, which sounded like fireworks, before a gap of 30 seconds and a further four bangs.

An ambulance left Charles Street just after 5pm as locals gathered around the blocked-off area.

The "Strikingly Handsome" Tanya Plibersek is Dribbling and RORTING AGAIN !!!

Tanya Plibersek slams government over Syrian refugee crisis

Andrew Carswell
The Daily Telegraph
October 1, 2015 12:00am





ACTING Labor leader Tanya Plibersek has criticised the Turnbull government on the refugee crisis, despite the Coalition trumping her own party’s suggestions on the number of displaced Syrians Australia should accept.

After returning home from a grandstanding tour of Washington and New York, the Opposition foreign affairs spokeswoman also laughed off Australia’s chances of securing a seat on the UN Human Rights Council, claiming she was bombarded by people who were concerned about Australia’s treatment of asylum seekers.

Yet while Ms Plibersek said Australia had some explaining to do for its treatment of asylum seekers, she backed the Turnbull government’s policy of offshore detention and preventing asylum seekers who arrive in Australia on boats from being included in the nation’s refugee intake.

“The effort to secure a spot on the UN Human Rights Council will be a very difficult one for Australia,’’ she said yesterday.

“I’ve just returned from Washington and New York where … people raised with me their concerns about the world going in one direction on these big issues of global concern, and Australia going in ­exactly the opposite direction.

“That’s true of climate change, it’s true of our commitment to our aid budget and it’s been true of our treatment of asylum seekers also.”

Labor’s renewed demands that Australia hike its refugee intact to 27,000 in light of the ongoing Syrian crisis comes as the European Union confirmed that out of the 213,000 ­arrivals in Europe in April, May and June, only 44,000 of them were fleeing the Syrian civil war.

Despite not having an official role at the 70th session of the UN General Assembly, Ms Plibersek filled her junket schedule with a gamut of meetings with US senators, the US State ­Department, the US Treasury, the IMF and “leading think tanks”.





Her itinerary was punctuated with selfies with climate change gurus, tasting a peanut butter and blackberry jelly doughnut, convivial chit chats with Kevin Rudd and a speech to the Asia Society Policy Institute, rivalled by a 13-minute, policy-loaded introduction from Mr Rudd himself.

Her Twitter feed was a gushing tribute to her humanitarian idols, ­including a blurred handshake with “friend” and director of the Earth ­Institute Jeffrey Sachs, a close-up of feminist Gloria Steinem and a snap with Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai.


"Plibersek is strikingly handsome, with angular features that reflect her Slovenian heritage"
Big Apple’s seeding rotten far-off ideas
Editorial The Daily TelegraphOctober 1, 2015 
LABOR’S deputy leader Tanya Plibersek keeps some ­unusual company. Yesterday she reported the views of people she’s been hanging around with in the US.
“I’ve just returned from Washington and New York where any number of people raised with me their concerns about the world going in one direction on these big issues of global concern and Australia going in exactly the opposite direction,” Plibersek said.
Of particular concern, the Labor deputy leader claimed, were Australia’s attitudes towards climate change and asylum seekers.
On the latter, Australia is actually leading the world. Europe, now beset with one of the largest ­asylum-seeker crises in history, looks to Australia for guidance.
On the former, Australia sets a world-leading example on climate change by only producing around 1.3 per cent of the planet’s man-made global warming gases. Match that, China!


Labor's Next Leader ? 
The "Strikingly Handsome " Tanya Plibersek

The woman most likely


If Labor is to make its way out of the political wilderness, deputy opposition leader Tanya Plibersek will be a key player.
Erin O'Dwyer
SMH
October 20, 2013

Tanya Plibersek has a gift for doing many things at once. "My personal favourite was writing a speech, talking on the telephone and breastfeeding," says Labor's 43-year-old MP for the federal seat of Sydney, whisking egg yolks, lemon juice and olive oil into a home-made mayonnaise.

It's lunchtime at Plibersek's inner-city home and the mother of three is rallying the troops. "Yes, you can have a baguette, Joe," she says to her hovering eight-year-old. She calls upstairs – "Mum, would you like a sandwich?" – and then says to the photographer, "Are you sure I can't offer you anything?" He declines politely, then tosses over his shoulder, "Don't ask her why she's not running as leader of the opposition."

Why not indeed? Within hours of the ALP losing government in September, Plibersek emerged as a potential new leader. A few weeks later, BRW magazine described her as a "powerful candidate" due to her "warmth, intelligence ... and, let's not be shy, her undoubted charisma". Then former PM Julia Gillard all but endorsed Plibersek, calling her one of the most gifted communicators in politics.

So when Plibersek offered herself as deputy – leaving two men, Bill Shorten and Anthony Albanese, to contest the Labor leadership – political observers were left asking why she didn't step up for the top job. "Are there many working mothers asking that? I don't think so," says Plibersek, who was elected deputy leader last week. "I'm away a lot already, at least one or two nights every week, and if it was the leadership as well I'd be away every weekend."

Juggling work and family has been the mainstay in Plibersek's life since she entered Federal Parliament in 1998, aged 29. In that time she has had three children – Anna, 12, Joe, 8, and Louis, 3 – and breastfed each of them for the first year. Her family loyalty has only strengthened her public image as a capable and compassionate politician. "If you were to draw up a shortlist for the next PM, it would have Tanya Plibersek's name on it," says political commentator Lachlan Harris, a former press secretary to Kevin Rudd.

If the ALP has taken hits on its credibility and standing up for its ideals, then Plibersek is crucial to rebuilding. "What Tanya has in spades is a real decency and dignity," Harris says. "It shines through whether you see her on TV, meet her in an airport lounge or watch her on the floor of Parliament."

On election night, former PM Bob Hawke came under fire for suggesting that Plibersek could not lead the party because she had a three-year-old child. When it emerged that Bill Shorten also had a three-year-old, the backlash was swift, with feminist action group Destroy the Joint launching a Twitter tirade and an internet meme. "I felt a bit sorry for Bob Hawke," says Plibersek. "He asked me, in this incredibly supportive and encouraging way, 'Why don't you run?' And at that stage Louis wasn't quite three and I said I couldn't imagine it."

Hawke remains a firm believer in Plibersek's ability to lead the party. "She's got everything it takes," he says. "She's intelligent, articulate and committed to the values of Labor."

Amid the conflict and chaos of the Rudd-Gillard era, Plibersek emerged unscathed. She's one of a number of unassuming female Labor MPs – Michelle Rowland in NSW, Kate Ellis in South Australia, Kate Lundy in the ACT – determined to trample over gender politics and make a fresh start with rolled-up sleeves.

Plibersek, especially, manages to sidestep internal party politics and the machinations of the "faceless men", yet retains the respect of the party's king-makers. In her own electorate of Sydney she is much loved. "It's a very demographically diverse seat and she manages to cover a wide spectrum of people, from working-class families to the first- and second-generation migrants to the über-trendy latte drinkers,'' says Harris, who lived for many years in the electorate.

Long-time Canberra press gallery journalist Kerry-Anne Walsh describes Plibersek as a "straight shooter. She stands out in the Labor male ruck. She's a genuinely compassionate person, a good policy driver, and she doesn't play nasty political games."

Adds Harris, "What makes Tanya interesting goes beyond the fact she's a woman. It's her political skills and her character ... that make her a strong force in politics."

Plibersek sets out a light lunch for our interview. There's organic olive bread, hard-boiled quail eggs, poached salmon and lettuce from the garden. On the bench is home-made banana bread next to a folder marked "school notes". The fridge is plastered with wedding invites, photos and a timetable of before- and after-school activities."I love cooking and I find it really relaxing," Plibersek says. "It's different from what I do the rest of the time."

In the office, too, Plibersek's hospitality is legendary. On sitting days in Parliament she'll often cook – grilled chicken on the sandwich press or soup in the rice cooker. "It's quicker and healthier than a trip to the Parliament House cafeteria," she says.

Even at home, Plibersek never stands still. She darts around her kitchen, barefoot and relaxed, in white linen pants and a yellow striped T-shirt. She seldom has time to shop, and asks if she can buy the canary yellow top she is photographed in. "It's either buy it here or buy at the airport," she laughs. "The last time I did any clothes shopping was because I was on my way to Brisbane and had to stay overnight. I had to buy undies and a fresh shirt for the next day."

Plibersek is one of the most invited guests on ABC TV's Q&A program (along with Malcolm Turnbull and Christopher Pyne) – known for her calm, thoughtful answers and occasionally sharp tongue. In person, she is warmer, more personable. Still, she relishes the opportunity to spar on television, despite getting the jitters each time she steps in front of the cameras.

The "Strikingly Handsome " Tanya Plibersek 
-----------------------------------------------

Plibersek is strikingly handsome, with angular features that reflect her Slovenian heritage. Her father Joseph was one of hundreds of migrants who worked on the Snowy Mountains hydro-electric scheme, then returned home on weekends. It was a close and happy upbringing.

But life has not been without tragedy and turmoil. She watched Joseph succumb to cancer at age 80 last year and she lives with the painful memory of the murder of her brother Phillip 16 years ago in Papua New Guinea. Her husband Michael Coutts-Trotter was in the news for all the wrong reasons when, after he was promoted to the post of Director-General of the NSW Education Department in 2007, the press revealed that he had served three years of a nine-year jail sentence for conspiracy to traffic heroin when he was 21 – before he and Plibersek met. Her husband was an addict at the time, and she says, "I think it's clear that it was a pretty miserable life for Michael and he paid a very high price for it. I hope [the children] will see his experience as instructive."

Always, family comes first for Plibersek. When Louis asks her for help to get onto the trampoline, she scoops him up in her arms and disappears outside. She returns a few minutes later and picks up our conversation exactly where she left off. "One of the most sustaining parts of my life is my family life," she says. "For all of the disadvantages of my work, the upside is my children see a much broader cross-section of life and think more deeply about it than many kids their age do."

On weekends, the children go with her to work. A nanny cares for them through the week and she and her husband's extended families fill in the gaps. Any downtime is spent at home – bike riding, bushwalking, swimming laps with the kids. "Between us all, we work it out," she says. "We're a very close family and it makes a huge difference to have grandparents around. I don't feel guilty asking my brother [Ray] to look after the kids because he's forever saying, 'Why don't you go out on Saturday night?' "

The marginalised and disadvantaged are the focus of Plibersek's work. As housing minister, she drove a reform agenda that saw $31 billion invested in new public housing and spearheaded a white paper which aimed to halve homelessness by 2020. As health minister, she introduced free dental care for children. Real, tangible wins are what inspire and motivate her.

Plibersek does not shy away from the controversy of Kevin Rudd, acknowledging that the party was "destabilised from within". Equally, she describes the sexist campaign against Julia Gillard as "beyond the pale". "Australians shocked themselves by how vicious some of the treatment of the PM was," she says. "She certainly ran up against some people who never imagined a woman in that leadership role."

Asked how future female leaders might learn from Gillard's experience, Plibersek replies, "It's not a question of how a woman would do it or a man would do it, it's a question of how a person should do it in a way that reflects their personality. Ego can be a problem. False modesty can be a problem. You need to be true to yourself. Looking back, there were so many things I disagreed with John Howard on, but what you see is what you get with John Howard. And that's a good way to be."

Plibersek is appreciating the extra time she has with her children now she's no longer in cabinet, and doesn't miss having to get up and dress in the dark. But she is brutally honest that she hates being back in opposition. "It's devastating to see the things you've worked for destroyed. I spent 10 years in opposition, I know what it feels like. You feel impotent and frustrated. You see the things you have worked for being unwound."

Unlike those who believe the Labor Party has run its course, Plibersek is passionate about its future. She has never thought about running as an independent, and despite her outspoken support for same-sex marriage, she believes in working for change from within, rather than "throwing rocks from the outside". "It will depend on us behaving ourselves and working closely together,'' she says. "How competitive Labor is in three years is completely up to us."

If a week is a long time in politics, then 15 years as an MP is an eternity. Plibersek is a survivor, a stayer, a new hope for Labor. Bob Hawke says it's because she's interested in people. "It's who she is," he says simply. "Politicians are about representing people and that's what she does very well."

Julie Bishop WTF are you doing?

We should reject UN’s sick circus

Andrew Bolt 
Herald Sun
October 1, 2015 



WELL, that didn’t take long. Just two weeks as Prime Minister and Malcolm Turnbull is already promising to lick the boots of the tyrants who infest the United Nations.

Yes, the Turnbull Government is asking for the tremendous honour of joining the UN’s Human Rights Commission.

And if we’re really good, Australia may join some of the moral paragons on that body supervising our human rights — China, Congo, Cuba, Kazakhstan, Pakistan, Qatar, Russia, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Vietnam.

No, that’s not a joke. These countries really are judges on a UN body meant to save us from exactly such thugs, thieves, theocrats and dictators. We will legitimise a pack of hypocrites we should shun and, in joining, will put ourselves at their level.

Sure, the Left is cheering, but check the company we’ll keep. Across the table will be Russia, which has stolen Crimea, invaded Ukraine and supplied to rebels the missile and the men that shot down the MH17 jet carrying Australian citizens.

Also rubbing shoulders with us will be the Saudi autocrats, about to behead and crucify Ali Mohammed al-Nimr, who protested for democracy in 2012, when he was only 17. And we’ll nod thoughtfully as the communist autocrats ruling China, Cuba and Vietnam define for us what should be meant by “human rights”.

I hope the UN’s showers are industrial strength.

Don’t believe the sanctimonious drivel about how joining such bodies does not compromise our beliefs. Horse manure. To win our temporary seat on the Security Council the Rudd government diverted hundreds of millions of dollars of aid money to African countries whose votes we needed.

Worse, to further curry favour with an important bloc of Muslim votes we saw Rudd as foreign affairs minister sucking up to Arab autocracies while attacking democratic Israel’s nuclear weapons program.

Then there’s the humiliating self-abasement in crawling for the votes of inferior countries. Labor foreign affairs spokeswoman Tanya Plibersek gave a perfect example yesterday, wondering whether “the massive cuts to our aid budget make it impossible for Australia to be a good global citizen”.

“The Australian Government will certainly have some explaining to do during the course of its bid for the human rights council spot.”

Pardon? We have to defend our human rights record to countries that have voted already for a gaggle of dictators?

Only a fool coached in our universities of Western self-loathing could think the UN is a better arbiter of our goodness than we are ourselves.

But I should cut Malcolm Turnbull some slack. Joining this sick circus might not be his fault.

Perhaps he simply couldn’t say no to Foreign Affairs Minister Julie Bishop, given her secret help to snatch the top job from Tony Abbott.

I mean, have you seen how Bishop is partying at the UN? There she was again this week, addressing the UN General Assembly like a world leader, with her boyfriend rubbernecking beside her in a seat normally meant for officials doing business for Australia.

The day before, some anonymous leaker boasted to a friendly Fairfax journalist that the UN’s “doors ... have mysteriously swung open” to Bishop now that her boss was Turnbull and not Abbott, so rude to thugs.

Gosh, she’d even “received a last-minute invitation to attend a Sunday lunch being hosted by United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon for the leaders of about 20 nations to discuss climate change”.

Now, which serial leaker would have leaked that, Julie? And note how eagerly Bishop pays homage to the UN’s multi-billion-dollar green faith, like it’s the entry price to a feed.

Ooh, but how exciting it all is for Bishop. Between gigs at the UN, she even had a star-studded dinner party in Manhattan, which the dutiful reporter noted was “a more raucous affair”, “full of big names” including actor Hugh Jackman and wife Deborra-lee Furness, Mariah Carey, Robert De Niro and glamorous more.

Marvellous. Imagine how many more hot invitations come Bishop’s way once we join the Human Rights Council.

So I was not surprised that someone — you again, Julie? — briefed journalists how Bishop had tricked that silly Abbott when he tried to stop this bid, first launched by Labor, to join a council Abbott considered “discredited”.

According to a Fairfax reporter in New York, Bishop had “been ordered by Mr Abbott to abandon the bid, an about face that might have caused Australia diplomatic embarrassment”, but “Bishop was yet to carry out the instruction when Mr Turnbull deposed Mr Abbott”.

Smart work, Bishop! A cunning delay.

How the UN will reward you. How dictators will laugh. And how Australians will pay.

Salim Mehajer threatens to sue Sydney gym for $10m over Kidnap allegations

Salim Mehajer threatens to sue Sydney gym for $10m in damages over harassment allegations

Salim Mehajer is now accused of threatening the family of a Sydney siege survivor. His colleagues, once again, say he has brought shame on their council.


The controversial and newly re-elected Auburn deputy mayor has denied allegations he threatened a personal trainer at a Sydney gym, saying he plans to sue the company for damages of up to $10 million.

Salim Mehajer is accused of threatening Burwood Anytime Fitness trainer, Bruce Herat, after he was asked to stop dropping weights on the gym floor.

Mr Herat said he had been verbally abused by Mr Mehajer, who allegedly followed him to his car and threatened to kidnap his children after repeatedly asking, “don’t you know who I am?”.

Mr Herat is the father of Sydney siege survivor, Joel.

Mr Mehajer has issued a statement to 9NEWS denying the allegations and said he would urge the government to introduce legislation protecting high-profile public figures from allegations that can harm their reputations.

“I was working out peacefully on my own, using a leg stretching press, whereby I was targeted by Mr Herat,” Mr Mehajer said.

“I will urge the Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull to change laws to protect high profile politicians and businessmen from such allegations which can turn their career upside down in a split second.”

NSW Police Commissioner Andrew Scipione previously asked for any witnesses to the alleged incident to come forward.
