  • Behind The Curtain with David Limbrick MP Ep1: Alternatives to VIC's State of Emergency

    David Limbrick MP joins me to explain the alternatives to Victoria's never ending State of Emergency.  


    Not only is David Limbrick seeking simple amendments to the government's bill, but a highly experienced team of QCs have gone ahead and drafted an alternative Bill that gives the government everything it needs to manage Covid-19 but without the sledgehammer powers is wants.  Will the government scuttle these common sense proposals?

  • Empathy Series Episode 4: Dr Niall McCrae

    Dr Niall McCrae is a senior lecturer in mental health at King’s College London. He is a prolific academic researcher and was one of the few academics to publicly support Brexit to leave the European Union.  

    He co-authored Moralitis: a Cultural Virus with Robert Oulds of The Bruges Group in the U.K., where they posit woke ideology as a virus that has infected the West.   

    His special interest is the dynamics in the child/teen/young adult population and he has been a vocal critic of COVID-19 lockdowns due to the mental health harms caused, as well as the long term impacts on their careers and lives.

  • A Classical Liberal Meets a Communist...

    Mike Riccard is a small business owner in Melbourne who believes Communism is both the preferred and inevitable evolution of capitalism.  

    In this discussion I tried to find out why and how…and what a Communist society would look like.   

    With so much discussion on Discernable over Marxism and other world views lately, it seems wise to seek out those who actually hold those world views to hear what they have to say and how they say it.

  • #FreeMelbourne with David Limbrick MP

    David Limbrick MP is a member of Victoria’s Legislative Council (the upper house). A long-time member of the LDP (www.ldp.org.au) he has risen to fame during Victoria’s COVID-19 lockdowns for being one of the only politicians to stand for basic human rights such as school children returning to school.

    David has also been providing scrutiny on the government’s State of Emergency laws through the PAEC (Parliamentary Accounts and Estimates Committee) where he has argued that the Victorian Labor government is not following the laws that require proportionality in any restrictions imposed.
