Renewed calls for curriculum transparency in SA, following England’s example
Recent revelations about sex education in South Australian schools should concern every parent. In August, The Advertiser brought the issue into the spotlight with its front-page “Sex Ed Scandal”, reporting on a controversial teaching method involving a teacher acting out a scenario of sexual abuse with a student. Most concerningly, the method followed an approach endorsed…

Your Chance to Protect Freedom in Queensland
Queensland is reviewing its human rights and anti-discrimination laws, and the outcome could have a lasting effect on religious freedom, freedom of speech, parental rights, and the freedom of Christian organisations to operate in accordance with their beliefs. ACL is making a detailed submission to the Review. Next week, we will also launch a special Queensland campaign to help…

You Can’t Fix What You Won’t Name
The Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion was called in response to the 2025 Bondi Beach terror attack on Jewish Australians. Yet we have not seen any evidence that the hearings or Commission have specifically examined Islamic antisemitism as a key driver, nor the preaching of Islamic hate preachers, or migration; the key issues ACL raised in our June submission.

A Closer Look at the Prayer That Opens WA’s Parliament
When the Legislative Assembly sits, some of the first words spoken in the chamber are among the most familiar in the English language. Many of us could say them half asleep. They’re worth slowing down for, because they ask a great deal of the people who make our laws. Back in June, we wrote about where this tradition comes from. Christian prayer has opened Westminster parliaments since…

Why Does the ACT Have a Navigator for VAD but Not Palliative Care?
When someone is nearing the end of their life, the question should be: how can we care for this person well? For families facing terminal illness, that means accessible palliative care, practical support and someone to help them navigate the health system. Yet in the ACT, there is a striking difference in the support available for voluntary assisted dying and palliative care.

NSW Government Rules Out Commercial Surrogacy
There are some things we should never put a price on. A woman’s ability to carry a child and a child’s right to be valued as more than the outcome of a commercial transaction should be protected. For Christians, children are not commodities to be obtained. Psalm 127 tells us that “children are a heritage from the Lord”. They are gifts entrusted to us by God…

Twice blocked, never debated: Parliament won’t even talk about women’s spaces
On 15 September the Senate voted 32 to 22 to stop Senator Michaelia Cash’s Sex Discrimination Amendment (Restoring Common Sense and Recognising Biological Sex) Bill 2026 from coming back onto the agenda. Every Labor and Greens senator present voted against it, along with independents David Pocock and Fatima Payman. The Coalition, One Nation and the UAP’s Ralph Babet voted for it.

Hands Off Parents’ Rights: Keeping the Freedom to Choose a Christian School in WA
Every year, thousands of WA families choose a Christian school so that the faith they teach at home is lived out by the adults their children see every day at school. That choice belongs to parents, and it is about to come under serious pressure. The Attorney General has recently signalled that a new Equal Opportunity Act will be introduced before the end of this year. It is expected to draw…

Queensland Adoption Reform
The Australian Christian Lobby welcomes Families Minister Amanda Camm’s efforts to reform Queensland’s child protection system and her willingness to examine adoption’s future. This is an important opportunity. Too many children who cannot safely return to their birth families remain in foster or other out-of-home care without a clear pathway to a permanent family.

South Australian Government Pushes to Expand Euthanasia
Recently, South Australia’s Health Minister Blair Boyer, and Deputy Premier and Attorney General Kyam Maher, joined voices to urge the Federal Labor Government to allow telehealth appointments for voluntary assisted dying (VAD). Currently, the Federal Criminal Code does not allow euthanasia to be discussed via telehealth – recognising that online appointments reduce the ability for…

The fight for life requires conviction
Last week, the NSW Legislative Council voted down the Abortion Law Reform Amendment (Sex Selection Prohibition) Bill 2025 at its second reading 21-16. The bill would have prohibited abortion for the purpose of sex selection and given legal force to a principle already recognised in NSW policy. Its defeat was deeply disappointing. But the events surrounding the debate also…

Protecting women is now against the law. Only parliament can fix it.
Yesterday the High Court of Australia handed down its decision in the long-running case of Tickle v Giggle, and in doing so, wrote the final sad chapter of a story that has run for more than five years. The Court refused Sall Grover leave to appeal, which left standing the Full Federal Court’s ruling from May this year that found she and her women-only app, ‘Giggle for Girls’…

What are ACT children being taught at public school?
The ACT Government’s use of the Victorian Resilience, Rights and Respectful Relationships (RRRR) resource makes us wonder, do parents know what their children are being taught at school? From Kindergarten to Year 2, children are being introduced to the idea that some people feel ‘their bodies do not match’ and that they a do not want to be called a boy or a girl. By Years 5 and 6…
