I don't need to convince women on radblr that TRAs hate feminists because we work to safeguard women’s spaces from creepy men. But the media downplays that TRAs hate us for defending spaces with children and minors from creepy men.

By Reduxx Team. November 10, 2023

An Australian politician who shouted down a women’s rights campaigner for speaking out against gender ideology is under investigation amid allegations of child sexual abuse. Johnathan Davis, 31, was one of the only openly-gay politicians in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT).

Davis has been the Member for the Tuggeranong seat of Brindabella, first elected to the ACT Legislative Assembly in 2020 with the ACT Greens Party. According to his political profile, which is still functional on the ACT Greens website as of the writing of this article, he was also the party spokesperson for a number of portfolios, including LGBTQIA+ Affairs, Young People, Family and Domestic Violence, and Drug Harm Reduction.

Davis was known for his vocally pro-“queer” stance, and archived versions of his now-deleted social media profiles show he identified himself as a “queer man” using “he/him” pronouns multiple times over the years.

But the ACT Greens have now referred Davis to police over serious allegations involving two teenage boys, one aged 17 and one aged 15. A complaint about Davis’ sexual conduct with the 15-year-old alleged victim was reportedly brought to the attention of Greens leader Shane Rattenbury on Monday, though some are claiming that party officials had been made aware of Davis’ behavior as long as 4 years ago.

Earlier this year, Davis was involved in the counter-rally against British women’s rights campaigner Kellie-Jay Keen, who had stopped in Canberra as part of her international Let Women Speak Tour. Keen’s rallies, which are iterations of the popular Speakers Corner talks she often hosts in the United Kingdom, seeks to encourage women to speak about how gender ideology has impacted their lives.

During the Canberra rally, Keen’s side was persistently interrupted by hundreds of trans activist protestors, who shouted down speakers and held signs bearing threatening slogans.

At one heated point during the rally, former Greens Senator Abigail Thorpe aggressively rushed Keen while draped in an Aboriginal flag. Thorpe was quickly taken down by Keen’s security, and later claimed she was ‘pulverized’ by police. She also stated that Keen, who she referred to as a “filth being,” should not be allowed to speak on Aboriginal land.

Following news of Davis’ resignation, many women’s rights campaigners took to X (formerly Twitter) to express their lack of surprise.

“That’s exactly what this is about – women asking for basic rights and child safeguarding and these men are using the ‘gender’ movement to discredit us. Their motives are clear – now when are other women going to see it,” one user said.

“I take it ‘guilt by association’ doesn’t apply here then? That all these trans aren’t pedophile too? Or is that just neo-nazis and women’s rallies? Funny how the media works,” another wrote, referring to a separate incident in which those who attended Keen’s Melbourne rally were accused of being “nazis” due to the unrelated appearance of neo-Nazis in the area at the time of her event.

While ACT Greens leader Shane Rattenbury has insisted he has seen no evidence of criminal wrongdoing, he has admitted that the allegations, if proven true, would be legally actionable.

Tips to Hire A Professional Electrician for Emergency Service

When it comes to hiring a skilled electrician for emergency services, it is important to make the right decision to ensure the safety and well-being of your household or business. If you want to know how to hire an expert Belconnen electrician successfully, follow the tips explained below.

Start by researching local electricians in your area who are renowned for offering emergency services. Look online, read the reviews and ratings of previous customers, and check the website to get a good idea before making your final decision.

Asking for recommendations from family members, friends, relatives, or neighbours who have earlier hired electricians for emergency repairs is also a smart decision that you can easily make.

You need to ensure that the electrician whom you are planning to hire for the service is licensed and insured. You should ask them to provide some documents as proof to clear your doubts. A valid licence and certification indicate that the electrician has the required training and qualifications to safely perform electrical work.

Choose an electrician who has years of experience managing emergency electrical repairs and fixing issues on time. Experts are more likely to diagnose electrical issues accurately and provide long-lasting solutions.

Look for electricians in Tuggeranong who offer 24/7 emergency services so that you can hire them at the time of need.

Before hiring an electrician, ask about their pricing structure to avoid problems at a later stage. A reputed electrician should give you clear and transparent pricing details without any hidden costs.

You must hire electrical service providers who are known for delivering high-quality workmanship. In short, you must not hesitate to ask for a warranty.

These are the few simple things that you need to do to hire expert electricians who specialise in offering emergency services at a reasonable price.

Kambah Turns 50

From Aug 16 to Oct 12, the exhibition Kambah Turns 50 is on at one of Canberra's Territory-government funded arts venues, the Tuggeranong Arts Centre https://tuggeranongarts.com/kambah-50-group-exhibition-16-aug-12-oct/

I'm the curator and artist behind the exhibition. It had great coverage in the Canberra Times last Saturday (24 Aug) with a box on the front page and an almost full page review. The online version called it a 'must-see exhibition'. The exhibition is just one component of this project about my suburb Kambah. The purpose was to explore how we can build relationships in our community, strengthen our ties. I've been working over four years to explore how heritage and our sense of a past that we share through the celebrations of the 50th this year can do this. The success of the exhibition and the numerous related events suggest it's worked.

How does this connect to Perth? Kambah and Midland seem to share some things in common - era and planners, it seems that Gordon Stephenson had a hand in both. So there may be work to do to explore reputational repair in Midland as well. I spent lots of time in Midland in the first quarter of 2024.

Front page of the Canberra Times, Sat 24 Aug 2024.

It includes the work of six other artists and items from cultural collections in Canberra and other parts of Australia. Also in the show are items from residents and former residents, works created by the Arts Centre with a local school and photographs discovered through a public program run by the Arts Centre. From my perspective, the whole exhibition is an artwork, an exploration of my suburb Kambah and how it is viewed and experienced. Why do I think of it as an artwork in itself? What follows teases this out.

Kambah is a suburb of Canberra with a mixed reputation in the ACT community. In 2009, it was honoured or maligned, depending on your point of view, as Canberra's biggest bogan suburb. I've lived in Kambah for a decade and when I moved here, I was puzzled by this reputation. Yes, we are mixed socio-economically and our housing is diverse - from thoughtful 1970s architecture to modest state-built houses, government houses or 'govvies' as we call them in Canberra. Yet we're surrounded by hills, right next to the Murrumbidgee and with the backdrop of the Brindabella mountains. It is physically beautiful with a canopy of 1970s eucalypts that means the houses of the suburb almost completely disappear when you view Kambah from the hilltops.

Kambah has a history of losing things - some of this is about not recognising the heritage we have - an example is the homestead of the station 'Kambah', pulled down following vandalism in the 1980s rather than repaired. Other parts of Canberra have their no-longer-needed public buildings, like schools, converted to community centres. Not in Kambah - they are sold, no longer for the community. Research from 2008 conducted by Kambah locals showed we have low social capital with few social networks based in the suburb. Since I came to Kambah I have been an environment volunteer, leading a landcare group. I wondered over our reputation but I also began to recognise it as a risk for us for the future - Australian experience in the past five years shows that as climate change bites, communities that can come together will fare better, communities of South Coast NSW are an obvious example to Canberra people.

In this context, I began a project to map the experience of Kambah, mine and others. This led me to investigate collections and gather reports and reflections from residents into an online 'scrapbook' with a handful of entries in a locative media map for the mobile phone. I grappled with challenges all archivists face, how to represent a community authentically and ethically. So I turned to my own representations of Kambah with a long series of pinhole photographs and photograms. I exhibited these in 2023 at the same venue in the exhibition Kambah. The goal of that exhibition was to learn more stories from the community and to explore what we could do to build our social capital, what could bring us together. I was aware that Kambah would turn 50 in 2024 and I began to explore community reactions to celebrating this milestone. During that 2023 exhibition, I held a series of public events - a physical meet up of the local Facebook group, a kitchen table conversation to talk about planning blueprints for our part of Canberra and a gathering of south Canberra artists. In my mind, the goal was to find ways to bring people together and strengthen or create bonds. I put in a proposal to the Arts Centre for an exhibition on Kambah's 50th. I began having meetings to talk specifically about Kambah's 50th - initially it was a tiny group, mostly of the artists. They contributed the early ideas for how Kambah should celebrate 50 - art at the shops, renaming landmarks to Ngunawal names were two. The Facebook group convenor amplified our small meeting by discussing it on the Kambah noticeboard, members shared ideas: a burn-out comp and bushdance were two that came from there. By then I had confirmation of the exhibition from the Arts Centre so dates were set. I put in a grant drawing on the artists ideas to see if we could make them reality - not successful. In early 2024, meetings drew a few more people and more check-ins with the Facebook group took place to see what resonated with the community.

We soon became a fairly regular group but still just a handful. The ideas and the program took up some of the early ideas and augmented and added to them. Individuals took the lead on events. As we called out for resources, we drew new people and became a group of about a dozen. My role was to start the conversation, push forward on the program, refine and develop the ideas the community suggested and respond as new people offered new ideas and skills that extended what we'd initially planned. The burn-out comp became a classic car show, the long table lunch wasn't exactly one long table but it was a very exciting day with our Federal MP and the Chief Minister in attendance.

Left to right: Pip, Rachel, Andrew Barr, ACT Chief Minister, David Smith, Federal MP for Bean.

The barn dance was dropped as it became clear the community didn't really want it. The bones were there from the first meeting in October 2023 for quite a few of the events but they have been elaborated and expanded in very exciting ways. The ambitious three part heritage day organised by a local historian started as a modest morning walk around the old farm. New events have been added - a trivia quiz, kids' colouring and poetry competitions are examples.

It's such an exciting ride to see the events become reality and to see the Kambah community enthusiastically show up to be part of them.

The challenge is how to claim and share credit appropriately! As an artist, I just want to share it but as an academic, I have a responsibility to claim some of it. Tricky.

The whole idea was to get the community to run with this and claim it for their own. That's been successful beyond my wildest dreams. I do appreciate the personal recognition as I have invested much time and energy. I have a printed section of Hansard in which my Federal MP acknowledged the project and my role in it. The Canberra Times wrote a great review of the exhibition.

Here's the Hansard extract:

Happy birthday, Kambah! The biggest suburb in the Southern Hemisphere, right?*

4 June 2024 | James Coleman

The Kambah Co-op was founded in 1975 to protest the suburb’s overpriced supermarket. Photo: ArchivesACT.

Kambah was named “Canberra’s booner capital” in 2009 by now-defunct satirical news website The Punch when the anonymous author highlighted the “number of V8 Falcons on the nature strip, wandering terrier dogs, and the enormous size of the local Burns Club”, but there’s a lot more to Kambah than that, according to local Louise Curham.

The loyal resident of 10-plus years is organising a series of events this year to mark 50 years since Kambah’s first residents began moving in in June 1974.

Louise has already spent more than four years constructing a digital map of the entire 1130-hectare suburb, complete with video, audio, text and image entries on various locations so users can tap on an area to learn more about it.

During research for these entries, she would ask everyone the same question: “Is there something about Kambah you know that you would like other people to know?”

She says the answers have been fascinating.

“People from the outside would think Kambah is surely a place you’d like to leave. But I’ve learnt this is not the case. There are a lot of second-generation Kambah people who love it.”

The suburb carries its name from the former Kambah sheep station, belonging to the Bennet family – Canberra aristocracy for their time.

“Kambah Homestead might have been part fibro, but it was very beautifully decorated and had pillars out the front and a sweeping driveway and swimming pool,” Louise adds.

“Life in early Kambah was pretty nice.”

Come the early 1970s, and with then prime minister Gough Whitlam massively expanding the size of the public service and Canberra’s population exploding 10 per cent year on year, the National Capital Development Commission (NCDC) needed somewhere to put all the young families.

The Kambah Woolshed. Photo: Wikimedia Commons, Nick D.

Rumour has it Kambah ended up so big because some public servant forgot to divvy it up into four suburbs, but in reality, it – together with Wanniassa next door – was planned as big territorial units made up of large blocks. They became known as ‘Nappy Valley’.

“The NCDC held this seminar, where they brought together a whole cross-section of age groups to learn what kind of suburb people wanted to live in,” Louise says.

“They were very much thinking about mental health. They were really trying to think about a place that would be good for people.”

To make room, the creek known as Village Creek was put underground through a pipe, and a large trap was built at the Lake Tuggeranong end to prevent upstream pollution from making its way into the lake – an engineering first for Canberra.

However, when Whitlam was dismissed and his successor Malcolm Fraser got to work slashing 17,000 government jobs, the prediction of 40,000 people in the valley by 1980 collapsed. All the houses were eventually built in subsequent decades but at a much slower rate.

“It’s really interesting how these big-picture forces play out in our everyday lives that we never think or look at,” Louise says.

Kambah had its own grocer from the beginning, but it didn’t take long for residents to hit back at the overpriced goods by forming their own co-op-style supermarket in 1975, with shares available for $10 each.

Located on Mannheim Street, this was the first and only supermarket in Tuggeranong to be started and owned by a community and the second retail store to open in Tuggeranong.

A Kambah primary school also became the first in Canberra to feature a computer lab because one of the student’s fathers happened to work in the right circles and agreed to help source the equipment.

Kambah was designed to have several local shopping centres, even if some have since folded. Photo: ArchivesACT.

Of course, there are less glamorous accounts, too. Like one from the 1980s, when a male “exposed himself” to a young horse rider. And former pizza delivery drivers who remember the ‘munchies’ houses, where the occupants would round out their marijuana smoking with lots of pizza.

“To find ways to visualise stories like this without necessarily pinpointing them on the map is an interesting challenge,” Louise says.

But the vast majority are positive.

“I mean, like all suburbs, people are busy, and there are lots who live in Kambah who don’t really connect, but then there are others for whom this is a really precious place,” she says.

“And as we have all these planning conversations across the ACT at the moment, if those people don’t speak now, we’re going to get what they give us.”

Kambah has a pretty side. Photo: File.

Louise is hosting a ‘Kambah 50’ event in the foyer of the Tuggeranong Arts Centre on Saturday, 17 August, with a number of other events to come.

‘A Long Table Picnic Lunch’ will be held on Sunday, 18 August, and a dog-friendly community picnic on Sunday, 8 September, with a winter lantern walk, bush dance, and sunrise walk up Mount Taylor (with champagne at the top) also in the works.

*Now, if you’ve come all this way waiting for the claim about Kambah being the biggest suburb in the southern hemisphere, it turns out that’s not true.

Not even close.

In 2017, the ABC wrangled data from PSMA Australia that revealed not only is the Gulf of Carpentaria technically a ‘suburb’ and larger, but there are another 20 to 30 urban suburbs with a similar population size and density to Kambah, but over a larger area. And that’s just in Australia.

Sorry.

Belconnen: Located to the north-west, Belconnen is known for its family-friendly environment, extensive parklands, and the University of Canberra.

Gungahlin: One of Canberra's fastest-growing districts, Gungahlin offers modern amenities, new housing developments, and is ideal for young families and professionals.

Woden Valley and Tuggeranong: These southern districts provide a more suburban feel with ample space, making them perfect for larger families and those seeking a quieter lifestyle.

Financial Considerations

Before diving into the property market, it’s essential to get your finances in order. This includes securing pre-approval for a mortgage, understanding your budget, and being aware of additional costs such as stamp duty, legal fees, and inspection costs. Canberra Property Buyer Solutions can assist you in navigating these financial waters, ensuring you get the best deal possible.

Legal and Inspection Processes

Engaging a reliable conveyancer or solicitor is crucial when buying property in Canberra.
