McBlog by Bob McCoskrieTrump is the only option when the alternative is KamalaWith the influence that the President and vice-President can have on the direction of our culture and the values that we hold as a society, even here in NZ, we need to know just who the candidates are, their values, and what direction they will indirectly lead the world in. Where do they stand on the issues that matter to us – life, marriage, family, religious freedom. What is their agenda in the areas of identity politics (LGBTQ++), gender ideology, critical theory, environmental alarmism, drugs, abortion, euthanasia, social engineering and many others.We've covered Tim Walz, JD Vance an...2024-10-0225 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieMore woke research to ignoreRecently we have been responding to some woke research and surveys. One was a survey from Massey University about whether Principals were indoctrinating their children with InsideOut material, and the second was the study from Victoria University in Wellington which was trying to practice conversion therapy on Bob and make him more loving and accepting of paedophilia. It didn’t work. Today we do a survey from Western Sydney University about the inclusion of transgender and gender diverse (TGD) health in the medical curriculum across NZ and Australia. This should be fun.2024-09-2715 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieDid Victoria University’s ‘conversion therapy’ work on me?A ‘study’ by Victoria University says that reducing stigma towards people with a sexual attraction to children (aka "paedophile") is important for mitigating the negative consequences of stigma towards their 'orientation'. Bob enrolled in the survey and started the ‘conversion therapy’. Did it work on him?2024-09-1533 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieBob schools the media & politicians on personal pronounsYou've probably all heard of disgraced Green MP Darleen Tana. Tana left the Green Party in July, when it received the findings of an independent investigation into her knowledge of migrant worker exploitation allegations at her husband’s bike shop. But it's not her treatment by the Green Party that should be causing significant emotional harm. It's actually the misgendering. The problem is trying to figure out who's doing the misgendering. 2024-08-2717 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieSome interesting answers from ChrisWe finally got to see the National party leader Chris Luxon up against current Prime Minister and Labour leader Chris Hipkins in the first Leaders Debate last night.

These policies are designed to strengthen families, promote marriage, and protect the unborn child – and also include a policy of no radical sexuality and gender material in schools! Perhaps we should send our political parties to have their respective annual conferences in Budapest next year.2022-10-2707 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieThe Government's 'kindness' to repeat violent criminalsIn the midst of a crime wave involving gang turf battles, gun crimes and violent ram raids, the Government along with the Greens and the Maori Party have responded by scrapping the law that specifically targets repeat violent offenders - all of whom have a track record even before getting caught. In a previous issue of Family Matters, Bob presented the evidence for why the law is working and should have been retained.2022-08-1010 min
Free Speech Union's PodcastInterview with Bob McCoskrieFamily First chief executive Bob McCoskrie sits down with the Free Speech Union's Jonathan Ayling to discuss the recent Supreme Court decision that saw his organisation lose their charity title. Bob and Jonathan dissect and challenge many aspects of the ruling, such as the assertion made by the Supreme Court that Family First's purpose "crossed the line between education and advocacy" and ask why groups such as Greenpeace haven't been subject to the same treatment. Finally Bob discusses the impact of the Supreme Court decision on the Free Speech of religious and indeed all New Zealanders and whether there...2022-07-1129 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieWas the Supreme Court fair re Family First?On TVNZ Q&A at the weekend, I discussed with host Jack Tame the reasons that the Supreme Court decision to deregister Family First was inconsistent, unfair and problematic.2022-07-0713 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieWhy Roe had to goOn TVNZ Q&A at the weekend, I discussed the reasons that Roe v Wade being overturned was a superb decision.

But TVNZ’s Sunday programme isn’t too good at this. In their episode on drug testing last weekend, what Sunday programme didn’t do was allow the contrary view – the view opposing drug testing. The view which says that drug testing simply allows drug takers to play Russian roulette with their lives and that there is no such thing as a safe drug. Watch the view that Sunday programme didn’t want you t2022-07-0610 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieSoft on crime, tough on familiesGang-related shootings, stabbings and the use of firearms in general – including against our police – have become disturbingly normal. Firearm-related offences are nearly double that of just 10 years ago. And family violence is also sadly on the increase. Family First has released a short video clip to highlight the urgency of this issue. The focus always seems to be on the interest and well-being of the criminal and no mention of the rights and welfare of victims. It’s time we stopped being soft on crime, because crime is tough on families.2022-07-0606 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieLegal Expert - Family First is being deregistered for engaging in the democratic process“Family First is being deregistered for engaging in the democratic process. It has not broken any laws”. Yet more expert opinion, expressing concerns about the court ruling to de-register Family First. Sue Barker is a barrister and solicitor, and expert in charities law. She says: “if Family First can be deregistered for engaging in the democratic process, my concern is that any charity can be” … “what we are really undermining is our democracy”. 2022-06-3003 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieMcBLOG: Deregistered - but not defeatedThe Supreme Court has supported the decision by the Government to deregister Family First as a charity. This is after the Government appealed an earlier decision (2020) by the Court of Appeal in favour of Family First retaining its charitable status. There have been four court cases over the last decade attempting to resolve this issue. The reasoning behind the Supreme Court overruling the decision of the Court of Appeal, and the justification for deregistering Family First, should concern anyone who values free speech and traditional / conservative views around family & marriage.2022-06-2913 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieThose celebrating Supreme Court decision could be in for rude shockPlease listen to this important interview with Heather Duplessis Allen, as Bob McCoskrie discusses the full implications of today's Supreme Court's ruling to remove Family First's charitable status.

The hyper-sexualised and gender confused indoctrination is being targeted at our children – in schools, in libraries, and even in some churches that have lost their way. It’s time to push back.2022-06-2210 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieGender ideology not welcome for children - pollIf you listened to and watched the media coverage on the transgender issue related to our children, you would think that if you believe that a boy is born a boy and a girl is born a girl, and if you oppose any indoctrination that 'you can choose your sex, it must mean you are completely out of touch with reality and public opinion. Maybe it’s time to think again. You’re actually with a strong majority who want children to be told the biological truth and to be affirmed with the gender they were born with.2022-06-2006 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieWhen media become cheerleaders, not reportersThe media already has an issue of trust. Here's an episode on both dodgy research and dodgy media 'reporting'... A recent Stuff article on the conversion therapy bill was taken to the Media Council who agreed with a number of concerns about the accuracy and integrity of both the research quoted and the reporting of it. It’s a good example of the media tripping over their own ideology to push a narrative. It’s also a good example of dodgy research by activists.2022-06-1613 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieThe disaster of decriminalising drugsDrug advocates in NZ want a decriminalisation and health approach to drug use, yet ironically this approach does not appear to be favoured by many drug users. The number of drug users wanting to engage with the Government’s recommended health referral service is "abysmally low". We also only need to look overseas at recent examples of this policy approach to see what liberalised drug laws actually look like in reality.2022-06-1510 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieMore work-burning of children's booksThe woke are looking for any children's books that don’t tick the critical theory intersectionality boxes of race, ethnicity, gender, LGBTQ identity or some other minority identity.

The article was a good example of everything that can go wrong with sperm donation. Despite the greatest intentions of the lawmakers, there’s no mandate that a donor is to be involved - or will want to be involved - in the child’s life. It may still effectively be anonymous, except for the disclosure of some of their genetic origin. But children have a deep longing to know who they belong to, where they come from, and who they...2022-06-1310 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieGuest Contributor - LeaoBecause of an adverse childhood experience, Leao Tildsley struggled with her gender identity.

The Law Commission. The politicians. The media. But the question that nobody seems to be asking is - should we be making sperm & egg donation and surrogacy (both traditional & gestational) more accessible?

But they’ve slowly changed to being woke, fragile, and only able to handle left wing views. Parliament recently reinforced that when they voted down a proposed bill to ensure free speech on campuses in NZ – but there was one superb speech which nailed the real issue. You’ve got to hear it.2022-05-2710 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieBeware of The Disinformation ProjectBEWARE: Propaganda can come from all quarters. It’s our job to research and sift out the fake stuff and find the credible stuff. The problem for “The Disinformation Project” is that within possibly some very valid facts and research, they clearly disagree with a morally conservative or traditional worldview. That’s probably why the media love them. And that’s why you should treat The Disinformation Project” information with extreme caution.2022-05-2608 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieTaking (selective) offenceIt's very likely you haven't heard of Haneen Zreika or Idrissa Gueye.

If you’ve done nothing wrong, you’ve got nothing to hide or worry about. So does the right to silence law actually hide the truth and mean that people can get away with murder? The rights of victims to justice and the urgent need for offenders to be held accountable far outweighs the right to silence and other privileges that families may seek to use to mask their guilt or involvement.2022-05-2006 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieSchool-based culture warWhy would a teacher who loves teaching quit her job?

It's time to push back.2022-05-1808 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieSshhh! International Day of FamiliesYou probably weren't aware but yesterday was International Day of Families - the day the UN chose to promote awareness of issues relating to families.

According to Duke University, "queerness" is now LGBTQQIP2SAA - lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning, queer, intersex, pansexual, two-spirit (2S), androgynous and asexual. So when they say “adding queerness”, it’s the indoctrination of all these things. Remember, we’re talking about indoctrinating children.

The movement is even going so far as to claim that 'paedophilia' should be renamed and understood as a sexual orientation. Their goal is to remove the stigma. But the stigma is there for a good reason. It’s a healthy stigma which hopefully redirects the offender, but more importantly, attempts to protect the victim. 2022-05-1810 minMcBlog by Bob McCoskrieNZ Doctors Mag Promotes PolyamoryThe latest edition of the magazine for the Royal NZ College of GPs features a disturbing article which promotes the use of non-gendered terms such as "pregnant person" and cancels the term "mother" during the birthing process.
