The Voice referendum taught us a great many things — not least that, given the chance, Australians soundly reject identity politics and wokeism. More particularly, though, it showed us just how glaringly out of step with the mainstream that the redoubts of wokeism — the inner-Sydney and Melbourne, Teal-voting, quinoa belts — really
In the classic Beyond the Fringe comedy sketch, “The End of the World”, a group of doomsday cultists gathered to witness the prophesied armageddon. When it fails to materialise, the cultists glumly remind each other, “Same time next week, Brothers: we must get a winner one day”. Millenarian, doomsday cults

It’s really annoying when a viable but frequently unreliable alternative to the MSM attracts public attention but fails to properly prepare and dispense reliable information. This week Sean Plunket made a complete arse of himself during his interview with Kirsten Murfitt by inviting her onto his show and shouting
Some years ago while researching online I chanced upon an interesting article from the now-defunct Whaleoil website. Before long I was reading the site daily and enjoying the political and other discussions that make up the fabric of life. At some point an advertisement seeking volunteer writers caught my attention

You really have to wonder what sort of drugs Labour is imbibing to come up with this sort of nonsensical rubbish to explain away why they lost. But here we are: Labour Party leader Chris Hipkins does not think ruling out a capital gains or wealth tax this year cost
The first rounds of polls since the Voice referendum defeat are in, and the news is dire for PM Anthony Albanese. Not fatal, perhaps, or at least not yet, but yet another indication that the Labor government is fast bleeding out in its first term. Combined with polling on the
The shameful onslaught of open anti-Semitism in Australia and New Zealand shows no sign of abating. While odious Greens Jew-baiter Chloe Swarbrick is finally being called out by some for her repeated invocations to Jewish genocide, just as many in the Israel-deranged media-left are resorting to ever-more threadbare excuses. Meanwhile,
Can we stop pretending now that mass immigration is nothing more than a particularly nasty Ponzi scheme which punishes native citizens to reward the elites? Even the former Reserve Bank governor admitted it: mass immigration kept workers’ wages low while allowing lazy, mendicant big businesses to avoid properly training local
In stunning news today, it’s been revealed that Queensland’s public service and academics were supposedly previously hiring on merit. Not that anyone would know it. After all, “merit” seems a strange word to describe the dross that’s bobbed around in the taxpayer-funded toilet bowl of the public

I never thought I’d have to write an article about this, but we are now in a position where we have to. The economy is in the pits, and now it is finally hurting us. On Monday you guys did us proud, and the new sign ups and the
You really have to listen to this: Josie Pagani on Mike Hosking’s show yesterday. She said a number of interesting things, especially that she believes that the next Labour Prime Minister isn’t even in caucus yet. But the most important thing she said is that Labour believes they
