In a nation teetering on the edge, where the soul of Australia faces
an existential threat, "Dinkum Aussies, Common Sense, and the Woke
Offended” unveils the alarming transformation led by Prime Minister
Anthony Albanese. As the Labor Government propels the country into a
vortex of woke ideologies, climate fanaticism, and identity
politics, the Aussie character hangs in the balance. Unraveling the
consequences of misguided policies and a cultural shift, the book
exposes the erosion of common sense, freedom, and the very essence
of Australian identity. Brace for a compelling exploration of the
struggle between grassroots patriotism and the encroaching tide of
woke tyranny.
“Doug Morrissey has put his heart and soul into this most timely and
passionate defence of the Australian way of life against the forces
of the woke progressive who are hard at work to destroy every
institution in our society.”
-- Dr Bella d’Abrera Director of the Foundations of Western
Civilisation Program at the Institute of Public Affairs
