James Cook University has successfully challenged the unfair dismissal case brought against the institution by former employee Professor Peter Ridd in what Liberal Senator Claire Chandler has described as “a very disappointing day for free speech". Mr Ridd was dismissed in 2018 after he publicly criticised his colleagues climate change science connected to research conducted on the Great Barrier Reef.

Any chance this could be referred to the High Court? Cannot think of any more important decision to be reviewed. I for one would contribute to the cost.

China is the cause of the SARS COV 2 aka Chinese Wuhan Virus

I understand going against the majority is always going to be difficult, but this is the wrong decision. Disagreement amongst scientists should not be stopped or silenced, it is how we learn. Some will now question climate change, which is the last thing we need.

THE TRUTH is more important than FREE SPEECH. There is nothing to be gained from listening to those who distort the truth.

Truth is compromised at James Cook University. We should never give up fighting this corruption DanTehanWannon JCU PeterRidd FreeSpeech auspol

Joe Biden’s climate plan would ‘blow up the US economy’: Alan Jones | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Alan Jones says “if you thought coronavirus had tanked the economy, Joe Biden's climate change plan is the equivalent of taking a bazooka to it”.\n\n“It'll blow the economy up,” he said. \n\nDemocratic candidate Joe Biden has outlined a 110-page $2 trillion climate plan charting the United States on an irreversible path to net zero carbon emissions by 2050.\n\nWhen announcing the plan to the public, Mr Biden said, “Science tells us we have nine years before the damage is irreversible” and flagged the creation of Civilian Conservation Corps to protect lands and solve the climate crisis.\n\nHowever, Mr Jones described the Democratic candidate’s words as “fear-mongering rubbish”.\n\n“This target was put together by Biden's joint task force which was spearheaded by Senator Bernie Sanders in a bid to win over far-left voters,” he said.\n\nThe implementation of Mr Biden’s climate change plan would “dislocate millions of jobs and cause job losses for workers currently employed in every stage of the energy production process, from extracting resources to delivering electricity to consumers”.\n\nExamining the cost of actualising the net zero emissions project, Mr Jones said “one analysis from global consultancy group, Wood Mackenzie, found that the transition to a 100 percent renewable American power grid would require up to $4.5 trillion US”.\n\nDaily Telegraph columnist Miranda Devine said the Democrat decision to push a radical climate agenda was a 'suicide note, politically speaking'. \n\nImage: AP\n\n AlanJones JoeBiden Climate change is the mother of hoaxes AlanJones JoeBiden Wouldn’t be nearly as bad as covid AlanJones JoeBiden joe dont have a plan...he has a teleprompter and some cosy reporter buddies *don't they all*
