With the release this week of the “Enablement Plan” for Moore Park South that cuts the golf course in half, I thought it would be good to document the usage of the whole Moore Park Parklands at peak. In a surprise to no one, the golf course was heaving and the parklands empty.

@mikeclaytongolf @bradcliffo @GolfDigestAU @GolfAust @GolfNSW @BenFordhamLive I’m not confident there will be money for good anything.. their own business case costed their preliminary plan at >$200m. They have allocated $50m inclusive of consultancy costs.. at least $10m will be consumed trying to build a football pitch on the very hilly 18th tee.

@jmkendler @bradcliffo @GolfDigestAU @GolfAust @GolfNSW @BenFordhamLive If it’s to be cut to 9 holes how much are the government committing to improve -by a lot because it’s not good now - the architecture? Taking 9 and not spending Sandy Links type money on transforming what’s left would be a proper crime against the game and Moore Park.

JUST IN: Sources have told @GolfDigestAU that Moore Park will be reduced to a 9-hole golf course from July 1 2026. Fencing will go up on June 30. More to come. It's a hammer blow for the sport in #Sydney. #Golf #MoorePark @GolfAust @GolfNSW

@EvinPriest @bradcliffo Not disputing this reporting though important context is that the govt still don’t have a costed and approved plan. Their proposed driving range changes could be $15m plus alone.. They will eat up the $50m before delivering most of their vision.

I know one thing is for sure. He won’t be playing golf in retirement as he will be persona non grata at every golf club in the state after his targeting of Moore Park and Carnarvon golf courses.

@2GB873 Great interview. Elvis is the real deal & a great role model for aspiring golfers. One of the reasons we can produce world class golf talent in Australia is because the game is accessible and affordable. It would be great to get @BenFordham take on what’s happening at Moore Park.

@AndrewKirbyGolf Such a contrast to what’s happening at Moore Park… and too add insult to injury the SA premier sent his team to Moore Park to learn from our public golf success…

When I was in Adelaide last week I had a good look around the north Adelaide site which will be the home of a bespoke tournament course which LIV and other events can use and will otherwise be public access It’s very close to the centre of town in a beautiful spot If the gov nails it will be a fantastic tournament facility The Premier is all in too

@JoshHoltTEN @ChrisMinnsMP It was a decision made prior to conducting proper analysis and community consolation. It is nothing more than a back room deal with @CloverMoore. The governments own business case does not support a reduction to the course and clearly states no options outperformed the base case!

I have played Moore Park GC 4 times in the last 2 months. Each time the most used golf course in Australia was jam packed & the surrounding parklands were completely empty. IMO @ChrisMinnsMP seems like a good guy, but this decision is just not right! dailytelegraph.com.au/news/nsw/golf-…

Prime Minister, your announcement today of an internal departmental review of law enforcement and intelligence agencies is wholly inadequate. To use an Australian colloquialism its bullshit. It’s weak, it’s wrong, it’s an abrogation of your first and fundamental duty to protect all Australian citizens after the deadliest terrorist attack on Australian soil at Bondi beach. Your departmental review will not go to the heart of the issues and the radicalisation within our country, which has been allowed to explode on your watch. Prime Minister what are you afraid a Commonwealth Royal Commission will uncover? The Commonwealth must take the lead with the most comprehensive, powerful Royal Commission possible. You supported Royal Commissions into the banks, veterans, aged care and welfare system. Now 15 innocent souls including 10 year old Matilda have been murdered by radical Islamists and all you are prepared to commit to is an internal departmental review? It beggars belief and is the latest failure in federal leadership. It’s not good enough to pass the buck to NSW whose Premier has already indicated he will hold a Royal Commission. Why is a Royal Commisson good enough for NSW but not the Federal Government? No one could think that the extremist threat is limited to NSW. These are federal offences, federal responsibilities and failures at the federal level. The threat is national. You yourself have said that this terrorist attack was inspired by the Islamic State, you cannot legitimately conclude that this is a matter to be covered by a state based Royal Commission. Anti-Jew intimidation, harassment and violence has metastasised in our country and must not be allowed to go one day longer. The tsunami of hate is not just an attack on Jewish Australians, it’s a threat to every Australian. Prime Minister enough is enough!

‘News flash: Those who hate Jews hate the rest of us too.’ My essay in today’s edition of The Australian (⁦@australian⁩) theaustralian.com.au/inquirer/antis…

Given the response, I am lifting my column out of the paywall… 1/2 This evil is driven by envy In the context of the Bondi tragedy, let me start by saying that Australia is not the country I once knew. The Australia I remember during my youth bears little resemblance to the nation that now exists. I am not sure you can even describe us as a nation – we are more like a heterogeneous agglomeration of vested and frequently colliding interests. I think there is a fair case to be made that we have traded away our soul. There is no cohesive national identity. There was, once upon a time, a demonstrably visible national character. We knew what it was to be Australian. We loved our country. Our flag. Our history. Our entrepreneurial and iconoclastic verve. Our disdain of centralised authority. Our willingness to give every person a fair go. Our characteristically intense competitive streak. And our eccentric and larrikin heroes. From Don Bradman to Kerry Packer. But today it is difficult to discern a unifying crusade or common community. There are, to be sure, redoubts here and there. But across this sunburnt land we have emerged as a nation divided. Many will claim that their vision of Australia best represents a universal mission. That they know the true Australia. And that there is a silent majority that agrees with them. But I do not see it. Right now, Australia is a battlefield bloodied by conflicting interests, which this column belaboured seven days ago. The lucky country has become the lazy land, spoilt by endless resource riches and the seemingly bottomless pit of public money that this has bestowed. Our wealth has been relentlessly wasted on pet political projects that serve only to perpetuate the reign of those in power. Financially corrupt the voters to win the next election and then rinse and repeat. Until the money runs out. Australia has become obsessed with the public sector providing answers to its problems. Obsessed with centralised control. Remember the world’s worst lockdowns? Obsessed with censorship: eviscerate parental responsibilities and ban children from access to the internet. Obsessed with revisionism. We don't even give our kids an opportunity to learn from our historical wins and losses. It is airbrushed in the name of trying to create an alternative political reality. Obsessed with cutting down tall poppies. That is, we don't just want equality of opportunity, which is a crucial ideal—we increasingly seek equality of outcomes. A huge amount of the secular racial prejudice projected against Judaism by other creeds and cultures can be attributed to the fact that the Jews have been consistently one of the most successful communities in the countries they have lived in. The intelligence, innovation, and unmatched professional intensity that Judaism nurtures has been a persistent source of envy and polarisation for as long as the faith has existed. Whatever academic pursuit or vocation you inspect, you will find Jews dominating. This is true by design because the community defines itself through a purity of purpose that advocates intellectual and professional excellence. It is a self-selection process that attracts and spawns world-class talent. Yet in a society where you are constantly seeking to manipulate and sate the masses, the ever-tempting reflex is to focus on persecuting the difficult-to-understand anomalies. The exceptions. Those that rank in the 99th percentile. Accordingly, we fall back on handicapping success. We want to regress everyone back to the mean to create an egalitarian world. The Jews are to blame. It’s the "great vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity" as Goldman Sachs was once described. Of course, Goldman was founded as a Jewish partnership. Cont’d 1/2 afr.com/markets/equity…

@Golf_industry What a contrast to what his happening with Moore Park in Sydney… Amazing, visionary leadership by @PMalinauskasMP

First Glimpse of New $45mil North Adelaide GC Upgrade: The North Adelaide Public Golf Course is set to undergo a significant $45 million upgrade, with the State Government today releasing the first glimpse of the redesigned greens. The ambitious project,… dlvr.it/TPtL2P

Every single word of this. @Erin_Molan with the perfect summary of how we feel in Sydney.

I am Arab and Muslim, and I say this clearly: the Muslim Brotherhood must be banned before we see more October 7s, more 9/11s, and more December 14s. Ban them before it’s too late. BANNING THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD WILL SAVE LIVES!

For community leaders asking where to draw the line between protest and the kind of hate that led to violence against Jews in Australia, allow me to help: ➡️ Protest challenges policies, not people. ➡️ It targets governments, not religious gatherings. ➡️ It does not follow families to holiday celebrations, schools, or synagogues. ➡️ It does not treat ethnic or religious identity as a political offense. When those lines are crossed, it's incitement and it won’t be long before words of hate turn into acts of hate.

*De-Globalize the Intifada *De-Normalize Antisemitism *Denounce Backwards Ideologies & Behaviors *Defend Western Values from Radical Islamists & Extreme Leftism *De-Naturalize Terrorists with Western Citizenships *Demote Rotten Academia from Public Discourse *De-Platform Hate

In October 2025, Muslims swarmed the Sydney Airport arrivals gate and yelled "Allahu Akbar" to welcome the return of pro-Palestine activists. They crossed the security line and the cops looked the other way. When you tolerate such lawlessness, mass shootings happen.

RT @DanielGarb: So angry and saddened today. So difficult to comprehend. People were shot at and killed with semi automatic rifles at Bondi…
