As I wrote recently, Australia’s legal elites seem determined to prove beyond all reasonable doubt what a colossal conga-line of asses they really are. First, there was the pro-Hamas “open letter” peddled by a cretinous collective of legal scholars, activists and lawyers. The High Court really upped the ante,
Taking over from Waleed Aly as the go-to poster-boy for Islamic terror apologism, Australia Palestine Advocacy Network president Nasser Mashni has been getting a pretty sweet gig from the taxpayer-funded leftist propaganda collective national broadcaster, the ABC. But, just who is the left-media’s latest Islamic poster boy, and what

Media petulance is growing as they demand to be told what is going on. But, to their credit, Christopher Luxon, Winston Peters and David Seymour are mostly staying mum on details…except for a few truth bombs: Peters was asked about the cost of hiring hotel rooms for negotiations since

When we hear the word vampire, an almost automatic image springs to mind: aristocratic, suave, beautiful, etc. Even the sparkly vampires of the much-derided Twilight series are wealthy, aristocratic and achingly beautiful (hey, I’ll admit to a thing for Alice Cullen). But all that is very much a modern
In recent posts, I’ve explored humans’ ancient fascinations with putting dicks on things, and fart jokes. But there’s another widespread ancient practice that’s both weirder and a whole lot more painful than dicks and farts. Or maybe not, depending on what you do with both, I guess.

In politics, perceptions are critical. Especially bad ones. Once a negative public perception takes hold, it can be near-impossible to shake. Just ask former opposition leaders like Labor’s Simon Crean, or the Liberal’s Brendan Nelson. Australian PM Anthony Albanese is finding that out the hard way, as the
In 1983, Julie Brown released her sadly underrated pop classic, I Like ‘Em Big and Stupid. The song’s uber-Valley Girl protagonist yearns for a “Superman with a lobotomy”. Authoritarian governments would concur, especially if one translates Superman to its German original Ubermensch. Authoritarians like their bootboys to follow orders,
As international law expert Natasha Hausdorff admonished a right-on BBC reporter, when it comes to Israel-Palestine, a great many people are “desperately ignorant, yet highly opinionated”. None more so than green-left politicians like Australia’s Mehreen Faruqi, who gibbers nonsense such as that Israel is a “coloniser”. A ludicrous nonsense
It’s a commonplace that C. S. Lewis’ Narnia stories “are a Christian allegory”. Which, at a cursory glance, most of us assume even as children. Once the penny drops that Aslan is Jesus, it all seems to fall into place. The idea of Narnia-as-allegory has such wide currency that

Bryce Edwards is the latest media luvvie to have a crack at the negotiations like a petulant child, except this time he is attacking Christopher Luxon for an apparent lack of skill in negotiating. The media speculation is starting to get tiresome. It is even more tiresome when Edwards references
