Check out my opinion article in the SMH describing my audience with the Archbishop of Sydney
smh.com.au
When a student petitioned Anglican schools over the rights of LGBTIQ young people, it led to a face-to-face meeting with the Anglican Archbishop of Sydney, Glenn Davies. They did not see eye-to-eye.

Fun fact: Santos has paid $0 in corporate tax in the last 10y while selling $48bn of Australian gas. Santos buys gas domestically and sells it overseas, increasing the price of Australian gas in our own market. Our govt must reserve gas for our domestic industries and homes.

I'm extremely angry about UTS and its management. Not only have they blown away 93 million on useless consultants, but they have invalidated their colleagues, not listened, and failed to use some of the smartest people in Australia to solve the university's financial issues.
