NZ First is urging we Kiwis to “take our country back” while referencing national issues including the cost of living, education, health, crime, climate change and racial division. Peters’ has clarified that he would support changing “every government department back to English” including Health New Zealand which was renamed Te
For someone who was virtually unknown a few months ago, Vivek Ramaswamy is a rocketing star in American conservative politics. While he still trails third in the Republican primaries, he’s fast catching up to one-time favourite Ron DeSantis — even if both of them are being left for dust by
Look at them: look at them and laugh. Big businesses thought that nauseating virtue-signalling over an endless parade of Current Things would make the left like them. Now they’ve got a socialist left government in power and they’re quickly learning just how recklessly stupid they’ve really been.
When Benjamin Franklin apocryphally said, “When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic,” he surely wasn’t thinking of New Zealand. After all, not only is it not a republic, but the place barely registered on the global consciousness in
The sludge of justice moves slow through the sewers of Washington. If Hunter Biden were just the crackhead son of an unemployed former auto worker in a trailer park, he’d have been in an orange jumpsuit years ago. But, he’s a scion of Biden Inc., and the Deep

Media coverage of the PREFU was as expected – completely upbeat: we have nothing to worry about, the economy is in safe hands despite the Minister of Finance heading for the exit door as fast as his chubby little legs can carry him. Finance Minister Grant Robertson said New Zealand’s
In the space of ten days we have seen seven polls, all saying the same thing: that Labour is dead in the water, listing, and still taking on water. Their goose is cooked. We no longer need to wonder whether Labour can reverse their slide in the polls; we can
Hmmm, let’s see: child slave labour and toxic pollution, adding to the massive strain on already-stressed power grids, massive weight threatening the integrity of car parks, the same weight causing them to rip through tyres and make even more pollution, the toxic nightmare of disposing of batteries, guzzling taxpayer’
The smartest move Joe Biden ever made was selecting Kamala Harris as his running mate. After all, who’d impeach even a sleazy, senile con-man, only to see him replaced by President Kamala Harris? But it seems that the magic shield of Kamala is wearing thin. Joe Biden faces the
As I reported for the BFD last week, the UK parliament gave a subtle middle finger to Beijing when it adopted a cross-party report that described Taiwan as “an independent country”. The Sunak government has lent its support to another besieged democracy, with a timely visit to Israel. The British
You almost have to feel sorry for Australian republic activists. Almost. Because then you remember that they’re people like Malcolm Turnbull and Pirate Pete FitzSimons, and you just laugh at them instead. Because, for all their decades of hectoring, bullying, finger-wagging, and swearing that this time — this time — they’

Labour has copped an absolute shellacking in the polls over the past ten days. Newshub/Reid Research was the fifth bad poll for them, and now the Guardian has released a new poll, making it six bad polls for Labour. Neither a Labour nor a National coalition could form a
