The Left love eternal, collective guilt.
That’s why they demanded last week that mining magnate Gina Rinehart renounce statements her father made 40 years ago about Aboriginal people.
But Gina understands she inherited her father’s business, not his sins. So - rightly in my view - she did not acquiesce.
Instead, she walked away with the $15 million she had earmarked for Netball Australia.
Its players can sell lamingtons while they reflect on the fact that people should not be judged by the words of others.
The saga began when an Indigenous netballer took offence to comments made before she was born, by someone she’d never met, who is no longer alive.
The player, and her teammates, insisted they would not wear a uniform featuring the Hancock logo unless Gina Rinehart apologised for her father’s remarks.
Rinehart refused to apologise for things she never said, and promptly tore up the multi-million-dollar sponsorship deal she had with Netball Australia.
The Left were infuriated.
The only thing they like more than hating capitalism is sucking from capitalism’s teat.
But now they had neither their sacrificial lamb nor their big fat cheque …
It seems to me that 'natural justice' has also become a casualty in the 'war on the west's' magnificent Jewish and Christian heritage. when will they ever learn?
Netball is offensive full stop. An English invention for women and all things British-Empire. See how convoluted it all becomes.
