Description
Based in Australia, Pearls and Irritations is a platform for discussing public policy, both domestic and foreign. We hold good policy development to be the foundation of good politics. We respect ideas, including contrarian ones, and value the free exchange of ideas as the means to help Australia flourish. Pearls and Irritations aims to provide a platform for this exchange of ideas from a broadly progressive, liberal perspective, with an emphasis on peace and justice.
We are not dogmatic, but we do have a point of view.
Our focus is on in-depth commentary on issues that matter to Australians and our place in the world. We publish new stories daily, covering politics and public policy, the economy, defence and security matters, climate change and the environment, as well as religion and faith, media and the arts.
