        Personally, just because one opposes RW positions and are termed Left, that is a compliment, showing people haven't lost their Social Conscience.

        The year the Left were called bigots for disagreeing with Margaret Court when she said LGBT people were evil pedophiles who are of the devil and responsible for a stolen generation.

        meanwhile Rupert's companies continue to be embroiled in scandal, including systemic sexual harassment at Fox.

        The left lost the plot long ago ! The trouble is the right are also losing the plot . We need a new party that looks after all sections of the community not just some !

        Typical Gerard Henderson dribble. You could write exactly the same story criticising the behaviour of rwnj’s of the world. Murdoch press becoming more irrelevant

        The lame, piss weak responses by leftie Murdoch haters nearly make for just as good reading as the article itself. They're losing the war and they don't like it. Won't be long, flakes, and you'll be history.
