The Final Two TV Polls

The Final Two TV Polls

On Wednesday night 1News and Newshub both dropped their final polls for this election campaign. What they show is that it is very safe to say voters aren’t impressed with either major party. And why should they be? Neither has the intention or solutions to do what needs to

Face of the Day

David Fisher writes: Once more we return to the beautiful Bay of Islands where Winston Peters will balance the country’s future in his hands in the manner of a Wild West poker player – he’ll hold his cards close and likely have at least one ace up his sleeve.

What Labor and the Greens ‘Stand With’

What Labor and the Greens ‘Stand With’

The Australian left continue to cover themselves with the filth of Palestinian terrorism. The same day that Greens politicians marched with Sydney Muslims chanting “gas the Jews”, and the Greens leader tweeted, not to condemn Hamas but Israel, Pakistani-born Muslim Greens senator Mehreen Faruqi tweeted that it was “disgusting”

Winston Weighs in on Voice

Next weekend, both New Zealanders and Australians will go to the polls: one in a general election, the other in a referendum. In both cases, there’s a strong case that the future of our countries as liberal democracies is at stake. Australians are voting on whether or not to

Ray Hadley Calls to Dump SBW

Ray Hadley Calls to Dump SBW

A whole lot of people are outing themselves as garbage humans in the wake of Israel’s horror. From odious Greens politicians and violent-extremism-supporting “countering violent extremism experts” bellowing that they “stand with Palestine” and Hamas, to cretinous pornstar Mia Khalifa whining that Hamas’ disgusting snuff videos weren’

Can We Afford a Part-Time Defence Boss?

Can We Afford a Part-Time Defence Boss?

I know I’ve often made mock in The BFD of NZ’s increasingly miniscule contribution to regional defence capability, but the truth is that Australia hasn’t got a lot to brag about, either. Sure, we spend more, both in real terms and per capita, than New Zealand, but

We Say We Want Free Speech, but at What Cost?

We Say We Want Free Speech, but at What Cost?

Imagine free speech as a label on one end of a horizontal line on a page and at the other end is censorship. X is where the two extremes meet somewhere in the middle. X marks the spot on the line where free speech ends and censorship begins: a moving

NZ First Passes Act in Latest Poll

The latest Guardian/Essential poll has shown NZ First passing Act for the first time. This poll is likely to cause extreme consternation inside the National Party and blind panic in the Act Party. With the majority of voters still yet to vote this poll will likely accelerate the direction

Note to Yes Camp: Try Telling the Truth for Once

Note to Yes Camp: Try Telling the Truth for Once

With less than a week to go till Australians vote on the critical “Indigenous Voice” referendum, the poll momentum continues to favour “No”. I say “critical”, because the referendum will decide one indeed critical issue: will Australia become a genuinely institutionally racist state for the foreseeable future, or not? According

Sydney Outs Itself as Australia’s City of Hate

Sydney Outs Itself as Australia’s City of Hate

Sydney is Australia’s City of Hate. On Monday night, Australia’s biggest city shamed the entire nation, when not only its huge Islamic community erupted into spontaneous celebration of the murder, rape and atrocities of Hamas in Israel — but police stood by and did nothing. Nothing, that is, except

The Time for Nuclear Is Now

The Time for Nuclear Is Now

No one’s ever accused Australia’s “Minister for Climate Change and Energy”, Chris Bowen, of being any kind of genius, but does he have to make such a point of being so dumb? When Boofhead tried to hose down growing calls for Australia to adopt nuclear energy, by claiming
