The Daily Declaration
STEPHEN MacAlpine has correctly stated that the Australian government wants Sall Grover to “live by lies.”
The Australian cultural commentator is condemning the High Court’s refusal to hear Grover’s appeal in the free-speech-defining fight Giggle (Sal Grover’s women-only website) v. Tickle (a Queensland tranny named Roxanne Tickle).
Her appeal, which could have corrected the LGBTQ+ lawfare blurring gender in Australia’s Sex Discrimination Act, was rejected last Thursday.
The High Court said in a brief response that there is no reason to doubt the Full Court’s decision. Referring to section 7D of the Act, they added: “Any appeal dependent on the demonstration of error in the Full Court’s construction of those provisions has insufficient prospects of success to warrant a grant of special leave to appeal.”
MacAlpine, who works for the Australian Christian Lobby’s (ACL) Download platform, expanded his critique, saying on Instagram, “women will be the poorer for it”, while ACL CEO Michelle Pearse has described the High Court outcome as “the final sad chapter of a story that’s run for almost five years.”
In case you missed it, the Federal Court ruled against Sall Grover in May, finding her guilty of discriminating against a biological man who identifies as a woman, after Grover refused to allow him onto Giggle, Grover’s women-only app.
Clearly disappointed in the High Court decision, Pearse wrote, “Let me be plain about what this means, because the legal language can obscure the plain reality.
“Under the law as it stands today, a woman can be found guilty of unlawful discrimination for maintaining a space exclusively for women.”
In other words, “a law written in 1984 to protect women and girls is now being used against them.”
Pearse put the problem back on the government. The judiciary is not at fault, she said, because former Labor Prime Minister Julia Gillard opened the door for the weaponisation of the Sex Discrimination Act in 2013.
The change “removed the long-settled clear definitions of ‘man’ and ‘woman’ and inserted ‘gender identity’ as a protected attribute.”
That happened, Pearse said, “without properly safeguarding the single-sex spaces that generations of women have relied upon.”
This is, she added, “precisely why yesterday’s decision matters so much. “Every judicial avenue is now exhausted. There is no higher court, no further appeal, no other case waiting in the wings. The courts have interpreted the law. Only the lawmakers can change the Act.”
Doing so, Pearse argued, “would restore it completely to its original purpose: to protect real women from discrimination. “Gender identity is legal fiction and should have never been legislated.”
This isn’t advocating against the dignity of others, she concluded. It’s about asserting truth and affirming certainty. Likewise, Binary’s Kirralie Smith said the High Court’s refusal was a “devastating blow.”
“There are a great many comments online about the legality of such a decision and conflict as to what should or could be done. and the reality is,” Smith said, “only politicians can fix this mess now.
“The court’s decision is frightening. It should put every single person on notice that our government has gone too far, has too much power and is entertaining punishing truth for the sake of ideology.”
Echoing some of MacAlpine and Pearse’s sentiment, Smith warned, “Anyone who thinks it will stop with the enforcement of gender ideology is sadly mistaken.
“If the courts and government can lie about something as fundamental as the reality of human bodies, if they can punish people for non-compliance, do you really think they will stop there?”
Sall Grover’s response to the 10 September decision was as prolific as it was defiant and on the day, she put the ruling on X with the simple caption: “I will never stop fighting. Men are not women.”
The next day she quipped, “A man won the ‘what is a woman’ case.”
Interviewed by the UK’s Talk TV, Grover said this isn’t a culture war, it’s a legal and political war. She was pushing back on Anthony Albanese’s asinine “it’s the culture wars” dismissals he gave on the ABC in May on the Afternoon Briefing.
Grover told the UK channel, “he can’t change the law. The reason is that all of Australia’s institutions are captured. If he were to actually come out on our side on this, they will turn against him.”
Albanese is, “I think, highly aware of that,” she explained. “So, he’s absolutely beholden to trans activists at this point.”
The mum and Giggle founder then confirmed she was leaving Australia, saying, “The person who took me to court, took me to court essentially for no reason.”
Leaving Australia allows her to continue doing what she’s set out to do, Grover said. “But I think about the women in Australia. It’s not like every woman in Australia who wants a women-only space can leave the country.”
“So, I’m going to fight [for] women in Australia until this law is changed.”
Stepping up that fight, News24 published a more detailed response from Grover on September 12th, where she stated that the law now says, in practice, a man is a woman.
“Without new legislation,” Grover said, “Australian discrimination law treats sex as changeable and ‘woman’ as a mixed-sex category any transitioned male can be included in.”
To this, she added, “Women as a sex class — adult human females — have been written out of the legislation that was supposed to protect us.”
This doesn’t stop with women, Grover noted. “Every Australian should have the right to acknowledge reality and to refuse an ideology they do not adhere to.
“The law now punishes that refusal. This isn’t inclusion, it’s compelled belief.”
“Courts have now resolved the conflict by letting identity overwrite sex. They’ve chosen ideology over reality. But reality does not change. The law will have to.”
“Australia,” Grover pointed out, “could have led the way with the original Tickle v Giggle decision.” Instead, it’s “doubled down in the opposite direction.”
From here, she slammed the 2013 Labor adjustments to the law, saying, “the law is wrong.”
Refusing to live by lies, she declared, “I will not call a man a woman. “I will not pretend a mixed-sex category is an accurate definition of woman, and I will not accept that the price of living in Australia is surrendering reality so an ideology can have the force of law.”
The High Court decision closed the judicial door. “It’s time to open the political one. Women are still women. Men are not women. Sex is not changeable. Laws are,” Grover exclaimed. “Change the Act.”
Under the current Labor government, any hope of fixing the Labor law is a flat, blunt “no, don’t hold your breath.”
Albanese’s flailing, useless, and politically correct cabinet refuses to define a woman. Let alone answer questions about what a woman is.
As MacAlpine asserted, this is very much now a case of the government telling Australians they will “live by lies” and learn to “love is love” it — or else!

Magoo: The Parliament makes the Law ; The Executive puts the Law into action ; The Judges decide the Legality .
Anyone can be whoever they want to be wherever their mind takes them , but they can’t be male or female unless they have been born with reproductive organs , no thanks to big pharma both male & females are now being born intersex .
This ideology then leads on to crimes such as rape and impregnation from that rape. If a man says he is a woman and he rapes a REAL woman in the womens’ dressing room or a womens’ toilet, then the woman he raped was not raped! If she ends up impregnated, then how did she get this way? With the courts all seemingly in agreement that men really are women, then it would be safe to say that they would conclude that the impregnation following a rape would be akin to the virgin mary becoming pregnant – no man needed! Sounds bizzare, I know but look what has just occurred….
It’s time to get things “straight”. Albanese must fix the Sex Discrimination Act as a “culture war” (his label). Does he think it’s a joke, to watch a culture war in which some men threaten Australian women 🇦🇺 We shouldn’t be losing our own Australian citizens as the “immigration war” also escalates.
So tell me again who was it IN TRUTH that was the most obvious of misogynists in our national parliaments that destroyed the identity of women? Ably followed by our gaslighting MSM which effortlessly brainwashed us into accepting that Arthas are Marthas.
.
But we have no one to blame. We took it and we’re STILL TAKING THE LIES like a bunch of Cecilias that we Aussies have trans-formed ourselves into. So it’s just as well the High Court chose not to interfere with the law or our own rights might have been threatened.
This underpins the elite’s worship of their god, the ultimate transgender, Baphomet!
Sick of explaining the same bloody shit to you all over and over…You all have go at the judges, you have a go at the politicians, even the mainstream media over this crap…THEY ARE ALL SECRET SOCIETY MEMBERS. ALL OF THEM! EVEN THE MEDIA!
.
The ‘Pyramid of power’…None of your top coppers, any of your judges, top bureaucrats or politicians, pastors, priests, Imam’s, Rabbi’s, your celebrities, popular media identities…none of them get anywhere without being part of the ‘club’…NONE OF THEM! You just won’t get the job/support/funding…you just won’t get anywhere without being in the ‘club’, they will prevent you getting anywhere. That is why the judges make their TREASONOUS judgements. They aren’t constitutionally lawful anyway…soi why wouldn’t they side with their JEWISH MASTERS?
.
To finish…All these secret societies are set up to worship…Jesus said the Father was only worth worshipping…the filthy rotten lying ALIEN Jew. Alien because they aren’t human as we are, it is in their DNA that they are different and they say so! The Serpent Race (God calls the counterfeit race- what the Jews say is in the Protocols of Zion!). They aren’t the vampires of fiction (that they obviously made up for misdirection purposes) but are vampires nonetheless. Parasites. Look at them with their crocodile tears of persecution, ‘my only crime was being born a Jew’ (the breaking of Divine Law)…yet they are living in EVERY WESTERN CITY IN THE WORLD!
Bill Francis. 10/10. I absolutely agree.
This is Talmudic law…It won’t go away until…YOU MAKE IT GO AWAY. This is the Jews ‘transgender justice!’. What is unrighteous to normal people, is righteous to them, what is unrighteous to us, is EXAQCTLY WHAT THEY ARE, INVERTED MORALITY!
.
Let me know when you get sick of me having an answer for everything, like EVERY ARTICLE!…that it is the Jews, that it is the Jews….Do your homework or shut up.
A lie, by definition, cannot be legal. Consequently, no ‘law’ that contains or relies on lies can be valid. The justices who ruled against Sall Grover demonstrated their gross inability to think logically or even use common sense, and by upholding the invalidity of the ‘law’, they showed their failure to honestly research the subject. They also demonstrated that they are not independent of politics, but subservient to, and fully captured by, it. If these people represent the best of the legal system, then Australia is doomed.

Well no man objected to the new VIC PMs Autogynephilia and forgive me if I just misgendered it. In my day they all hung out at gay bars and public toilets I always took great care to avoid. Aside from Professor Gillard the lizard I think Ozzi men too have a lot to answer for their lack of collective outrage at the mannification of the female form/norm we all love so much.
@Itsadogsworld. Sorry, judges can always wriggle around a law as they often do. They are activists like Albo.
The courts is there to uphold the ‘law’ … even when it is clearly wrong and stupid.
The only way around this is for the ‘law’ to be changed by Parliament. Once this is done then sanity can once again prevail.
