A surprise discovery

Australia's ABC TV has a debate program, Q&A and recently had a very well moderated discussion among Jordan Peterson, Alex Hawke, Terri Butler, Cathryn McGregor and Van Badham and the audience.

The Marxist was suitably irrelevant, the Labour Party shadow Minister was suitably wiffle-waffly, the Liberal Party Minister was surprisingly informed and articulate, and Jordan Peterson was his normal effective self.

I was very taken by the fifth member of the panel with whom I was unfamiliar, Cate McGregor. A transgender woman, she served in the Australian military and received the Order of Australia, had a career as a cricket journalist. Charming, witty, self-deprecating, gentle but firm in her views - what a pleasant discovery. Her twitter handle is @CateMc3273 but it seems inoperative at the moment. I look forward to reading her opinions once it is active again.
