		<description><![CDATA[Whatever one&#8217;s personal opinion either of News Limited&#8217;s columnist Andrew Bolt as a person or, of the case now before the court &#8212; and it&#8217;s clear opinions vary widely on both, the unfolding story has occasioned much worthwhile and important debate on the subject of free speech in a democracy.

		<description><![CDATA[In an ABC Lateline (22/6) debate on the so-called &#8220;Ute-gate&#8221; affair, Tony Abbott averred that it&#8217;s the job of the Opposition Leader to attack the Prime Minister based on credible evidence Therein lies one feature of the Westminster parliamentary tradition which has not served us well, however well-intentioned its origins.

		<description><![CDATA[I shan&#8217;t pretend to understand the economic or national security implications of the Defence Minister&#8217;s friendships. Such things are far too wonderful for me. But lately democracy seems to have degenerated into something far from wonderful for any of us.

(And I speak as a fellow Christian, in substantial agreement with Family First&#8217;s platform.)
