“Spare me the sermons on Islamophobia,” says Ramesh Thakur. “We do need to have the difficult conversation on the numbers of immigration that is safe to protect and preserve Australia as a cohesive society.”
The Covid Inquiry is an inquiry of, by and for lawyers, says Ramesh Thakur – just a carefully staged political whitewash with no real search for the truth and no hope of accountability.

Sixteen healthcare practitioners committed suicide after being targeted by a regulatory process in Australia between 2018 and 2021. Too often the regulator is weaponised against dissenters, says Ramesh Thakur.
