“Feminists are now amongst the most obnoxious bigots.”

“We were then in a dangerous, helpless situation, exposed daily to perils and death amongst savages and wild beasts, not a white man in the country but ourselves.”

“And I hope very much that the ALP will become increasingly engaged in the international discussions that are taking place amongst centre-left parties generally.”
