And while you're getting organised here are another couple of functions to put in your diary, dates and details to be advised.
Bettina Arndt - May 2
Bettina Arndt is a pioneering Australian sexologist who first came to prominence editing Forum magazine in the 70s. These days she spends much of her time advocating for men's rights. Perhaps not where she expected to end up, but she explains that she's always been interested in subjects that are to some degree taboo.
Full details to follow later.
David Flint - April 19
David Flint's latest book Give Us Back Our Country makes the pitch for direct democracy. Part of this would be Citizen Initiated Referenda - a policy which the AIP advocates. For many Australians David Flint was the public face of Australians for Constitutional Monarchy, but he's had a distinguished career as a professor of law and Chair of both the Australian Broadcasting Authority and the Australian Press Council.
Full details to follow later.
Look forward to catching-up with you at at least one of these functions.
Regards

Graham Young Executive Director Australian Institute for Progress
