Morning Market.
Aren't we lucky Turnbull never ate an onion, dodged a bullet there me old fellow.
Its all just more evidence of their ABC,s agenda.
Part3 of part 2.
February, 1998 – Turnbull approaches Kim Beazley at the Constitutional Convention, regarding his interest in gaining a
Labor seat in
parliament.
18th February, 1998 – In his column in
The Daily Telegraph, Mark Day, a director of the ARM, writes that Turnbull should quit the leadership of the ARM because the next stage of the battle for a republic required “less abrasive, confrontational leadership”. Day added that:
“A number of people from both inside and outside the republican movement have expressed the view that Malcolm should
go…” 19
21st March, 1998 – An editorial in
The Canberra Times says:
“The Australian Republican Movement’s Malcolm Turnbull is fast becoming the biggest asset in the monarchists’ armoury. Arrogant and increasingly intolerant of anyone with a contrary view, he has now moved on to Britain with the message for the natives that his “inevitable” republic is nothing to do with them….He also demonstrated his extremely frail ego by launching out once again at those sections of the media which choose not to fall down fawning at his feet.” 20
23rd March, 1998 –
The Sydney Morning Herald reports serious internal divisions over Turnbull’s leadership of the ARM:
“Despite attempts by senior ARM members to paper over the divisions, it is clear that many people, while appreciating Mr Turnbull’s efforts, believe he will have to relinquish authority as the republican campaign moves into the next phase. Even some of his own supporters now say privately that his dominance of the ARM is proving counterproductive to attempts to draw other community groups into the republican fight.”
Turnbull’s critics are said to be “growing” within the republican movement, among them Peter Costello, who is reported to have “problems with Mr Turnbull’s style and tactics”. Despite this, Turnbull retains the support of former NSW
Labor Premier Neville Wran.21
18th December, 1998 – Committed republican Ted Mack says Turnbull’s desired version of republic is “authoritarian”:
“The Turnbull republic is a move towards corporatism and guided democracy favoured by elitist and authoritarian regimes
everywhere.”
Early, 1999 – Turnbull approaches John Della Bosca regarding gaining a
Labor seat in
parliament.
18th January, 1999 – Tony Abbott says Malcolm Turnbull is part of a “Sydney chardonnay set” who regard Australians as:
“…yobs with cans in their hands, in urgent need of cultural re-education…” 22
28th January, 1999 – Victorian
Liberal Premier Jeff Kennett calls on Malcolm Turnbull to step
down as head of the republican campaign, saying he has a “crash through or crash” style and can’t relate to average Australians:
“I’m not sure that Malcolm Turnbull is the best public face to try and convince average Australians to vote for change… I just think you could find someone who probably can articulate the position better and relate better to the community as a whole.”
Peter Costello responds to Kennett saying:
“I think what Kennett is saying is right at one level. The real test for the ARM is whether they are now prepared to hand this issue over to a yes coalition.” 23
May, 1999 – An article in
The Bulletin magazine quotes a member of the republic referendum ‘Yes’ Committee saying:
“I think if Malcolm is directly involved in this thing, it will fail… [due to his] autocratic and unpopular style and his refusal to tolerate dissent.” 24
30th June, 1999 – Turnbull donates $15,000 to the
Labor Party in financial year 1998/1999 through his company
Wilcrow Pty Ltd.
31st July, 1999 – Turnbull tells the
Sydney Morning Herald that he and wife Lucy are “swinging
voters“.25
August, 1999 – Future NSW
Labor MP Frank Sartor is running for re-election as Lord Mayor of Sydney. He is
endorsed by the
Labor Party, including NSW Premier Bob Carr (Malcolm’s “close friend”). Turnbull’s wife Lucy is running on a joint ticket with Sartor, for the Deputy Lord Mayor position. Their opponent is
Liberal Kathryn Greiner, wife of former
Liberal NSW Premier Nick Greiner.
Lucy Turnbull and Frank Sartor.
Nick privately tells Malcolm that he has damaging material on Sartor, including a staffer’s official complaint that he is a serial
sexual harasser. Turnbull tries to protect Sartor, and warns Greiner not to attack him or there will be consequences26. When the allegations are made public, Turnbull attacks the
Liberal Party, calling them “rank amateurs” and the allegations “outrageous”.27
11th September, 1999 – NSW local council elections are held and the Sartor/Turnbull ticket is successful. Sartor is re-elected Lord Mayor and soon agrees to make 1000 Sydney flagpoles available exclusively, and free-of-charge, to carry Turnbull’s pro-republican “Vote Yes” banners (pictured below).28
10 October, 1999 – Turnbull says Prime Minister John Howard, Tony Abbott and Nick Minchin are all lacking in “objectivity and intellectual
integrity“.29
Late, 1999 – In the lead-up to the republic referendum, Turnbull approaches federal Labor Senator and shadow Attorney-General Nick Bolkus, asking about gaining
pre-selection for
Labor. Bolkus recalls:
“Malcolm, on more than one occasion, raised with me how he could get preselection in the Labor Party. It wasn’t something that I raised with him. I must admit I never thought Malcolm would be comfortable in the faction that I’m part of, the left, but it was something that he raised with me on a couple of occasions… I can remember at least two when the matter was raised by Malcolm, a genuine inquiry, I think it was an honest inquiry at the time. You know, he would often reflect about how Labor, he thought, was not going all that well under the leadership of Kim Beazley at the time, and whether someone like him would be able to add value to us and so on, but it was very much something that he was raising. “
Another
Labor staffer, and senior figure in the republican movement, Tony Pooley, said he had discussions with Turnbull about his
Labor ambitions at the time of the republic referendum, and that Turnbull:
“…had reflected on the fact he had some general discussions with Paul Keating about representing
Laborfederally.”
6th November, 1999 – Australians defeat Malcolm Turnbull’s republic referendum. Utterly ungracious in defeat, Turnbull spews a diatribe so laden with bile, that even the leftist, pro-republic ABC couldn’t stomach parts of it, and
edited them out in replays. This contrasted starkly with the speech given by Mrs. Kerry Jones, leader of the official “No” campaign, who
said:
“The ‘Yes’ campaign is full of good Australians who want the best for their country too… It is my wish, and the wish of all those involved in the ‘No’ campaign, that Australians who voted ‘Yes’ will join together with us so that we can celebrate the Centenary of Federation as a united nation. All of us want the best for our country. All of us are proud Australians”
The primary target of Turnbull’s bile was the then Prime Minister, John Howard, the very man who republicans had applauded for allowing the referendum to go ahead, despite his personal opposition to a republic. Turnbull
screeched:
“Whatever John Howard achieves, history will remember him for only one thing. He was the Prime Minister who broke the nation’s heart.”
This was a delusional statement considering Australia had just voted to support Howard’s position. Further, 15 years later, polling shows that 39% of Australians consider John Howard to be the best Prime Minister of the past
40 years.
So much for Turnbull’s prediction.
On the night of his referendum defeat, Turnbull approached former
Labor Prime Minister Bob Hawke, with a desire to join the federal
Labor Party and become a shadow Minister. Hawke claims Turnbull said:
“Bob, the only thing I can do now is join the Labor Party.”
Turnbull also tells senior
Labor staffer David Britton that he is “deeply pissed off with Howard” and that he had a “
very different social agenda” to the then Prime Minister. He then allegedly asked Britton:
“Don’t you think Kim Beazley would like somebody like me as his finance spokesman?”
Turnbull is also said to have canvassed becoming a
Labor MP with the then ACTU Secretary, Bill
Kelty.
29th November, 1999 – Just three weeks after losing the referendum, Turnbull’s book, “Fighting for the Republic”, is released. It appears to be a pre-cooked attempt at controlling the historical narrative. The major villain of the story is none other than the Prime Minister, John Howard, and the entire first chapter is dedicated to a full frontal attack on him. Other major villains include Tony Abbott, Nick Minchin, and a large swathe of the
Liberal Party.
In the book Turnbull compares John Howard to North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il , saying:
“It seemed that the Prime Minister had finally begun to embrace Asian values, but unfortunately he had started with North Korean political science.” [pg. 20]
He also says Howard is not patriotic…
“Prime Ministers are expected to be patriotic and as a consequence to have a lively interest in their national institutions. John Howard plainly did not.” [pg. 22]
…and is not acting like a legitimate Prime Minister:
“Howard has the office of Prime Minister, but he will not act like one. There are few politicians with a more short-term focus than him, and his only objective is winning the referendum.” [pg. 117]
He further claims that
Liberal ministers Tony Abbott, Nick Minchin and Peter Reith “joined in the chorus defaming our democratic institutions.” and “had no interest in enlightening the people”, and that they did so “with the Prime Minister’s blessing”. [pg. 247]
Turnbull also reveals the ALP-nature of the republican movement, saying:
“A vital element in the campaign was to maintain the solid support of the Australian Labor Party. We needed their foot-soldiers to distribute how-to-vote leaflets into letterboxes…both the participation rate and the support for the ARM were highest in the electorates where the ALP was most effective in distributing our literature.” [pg. 25]
and:
“The ALP…has decided to treat this referendum as though it were a federal campaign. Beazley will be exclusively devoting his time to it for the last three weeks of the campaign. We agree that the ARM and ALP should work in close liaison.” [pg. 131]
Other
Labor figures closely involved with Turnbull include David Britton, Tony Burke, Gareth Evans and Michael Lavarch. Turnbull praises all of them to the hilt. [pg. 25, 58]
Turnbull even mocks the idea of mateship, and the quintessential Aussie bloke, when referring to John Howard’s proposed preamble, saying:
“Howard tried to argue that ‘mateship’ was not a masculine term, but women were not convinced. Mates and mateship were as blokey as you could get. The was a preamble wearing thongs, stubbies and a blue singlet.” [pg. 89]
In the book, Turnbull also…
- Further reveals the ALP-nature of the campaign. [pg. 108, 171, 246, 247]
- Attacks Howard many more times. [pg. 17, 19, 89, 129, 149, 150, 161, 199, 219+]
- Attacks Sophie Panopoulos very personally. [pg. 143, 235]
- Says voting ‘no’ will offend Indonesia & Asia. [pg. 160]
- Takes the side of unionists over the Howard Government. [pg. 187]
- Supports targeting young people with a republican line of condoms & merchandise containing slogans with sexual double entendres like “Give an Australian the Head Job” and “Rooting for the Republic”. [pg 109] Republicans even try to get model Jodhi Meares to wear a T-shirt with one of the slogans, but she refuses out of disgust.
- Says monarchist-direct electionist coalition is like Nazi-Soviet pact. [pg. 188]
- Despite having two children, Turnbull says the referendum is the “proudest day of my life”. [pg. 242]
- Hypocritically attacks Liberal Senator Nick Minchin for Minchin’s criticism of two pro-republic High Court judges. [pg 181] Turnbull himself has a long history of attacking High Court judges, including calling on a Chief Justice to resign.
- Presenting no evidence, he accuses monarchists of hacking the ARM website and interfering with the telephone system. This is despite his criticism of monarchists as largely composed of geriatrics (who aren’t noted for being tech-savvy). On the other hand, Turnbull is an internet entrepreneur with connections, who is desperate to make monarchists look like cheaters. [pg 204]
- Complains that there hasn’t been enough school education about the constitution, but embraces children who say the Queen means nothing to them, due to that same lack of education about Australia’s history. [pg. 237]
2000 – Turnbull’s mentor, the radical homosexual
High CourtJustice, Michael Kirby,
joins the ‘Board of Governors’ of the
Kinsey Institute, a so-called “sex research” organisation in the United States that has been accused of co-operating with paedophiles and child sexual abusers for “research” on child sexuality.
Turnbull’s mentor, Michael Kirby.
The institute was founded in 1947 by American ‘sex researcher’ Alfred Kinsey (1894-1956) with funding from the
Rockefeller Foundation and support from
Indiana University. Its original name was simply the “Institute for Sex Research” (ISR), but it was
renamed in 1981 to honour its founder.
Kinsey is widely considered to be one of the primary initiators of the ‘sexual revolution’ (i.e. the normalisation of sexual immorality), which largely came to fruition in the 1960s and 70s, and continues unabated.
The work of Prof. James H. Jones, a
Pulitzer Prize nominated author, and Dr. Judith
Reisman, a meticulous American researcher, exposed Alfred Kinsey as a sado-masochistic homosexual who was involved in pseudo-scientific sexual experiments on children.30 It is also said that Kinsey:
- Had an “open marriage” with his wife Clara, so he could indulge in homosexual activities.31
- Had sexual relationships with his male students and colleagues at Indiana University.
- Had a fetish for tying rope around his scrotum and sticking objects in his urethra, for example: toothbrushes, drinking straws and pipe cleaners. He would then tug on the rope.32
- Was addicted to masturbation, impotent and had serious orchitis.32
- Was a misogynist who viewed women as “parasites”.33
- Circumcised himself, without anaesthesia, using a pocket knife.34
Dr. Alfred Kinsey
Turnbull’s mentor, Michael Kirby, has openly
praised Dr. Alfred Kinsey, and says he was “
honoured” to serve on the board of the “sex research” institute he founded. We should also note that Kirby has previously been accused of picking up underage male
prostitutes by
Liberal Senator Bill Heffernan, but Heffernan couldn’t produce enough evidence and was ordered to apologise.
Dr. Reisman has written six
books on the subject of the sexual revolution, two of which specifically focus on Kinsey. If you want further information, I highly recommend these books.
There are also four documentaries on the disturbing activities of Kinsey and his associates:
30th June, 2000 – Turnbull donates $10,000 to the
Labor Party in financial year 1999/2000 through his company
Wilcrow Pty Ltd.
2000 – On two separate occasions, Turnbull is said to have enthusiastically sought
Labor endorsement on the grounds that he’d do a better job of leading the Labor Party than Kim Beazley. The alleged locations where this took place were dinner parties in Sydney and Adelaide.
