A Week of Polling Disasters for Labour

A Week of Polling Disasters for Labour

Last week was a perfect storm of polling disasters for the Labour Party. It started with the Roy Morgan poll, the The Post poll, then Talbot Mills (Labour’s own pollster) and finally the Taxpayers’ Union poll. All saying the same thing: Labour’s support has cratered from the 2020

Not the Moral Lessons the Movies Intended

Not the Moral Lessons the Movies Intended

In his excellent memoir-cum-how-to book on indie film-making, Lloyd Kaufman of Troma Films fame had strong words for his critics. Responding to sneers that his movies had no moral value, Kaufman agreed – and that that was the point. So what, he said, if Bloodsucking Freaks had no moral value? It

Lesbian Feminist Lies about Us Straights

In Joe Haldeman’s classic SF novel, The Forever War, a future world-government socially engineers a population of indeterminate, uniformly vaguely brown, non-ethnicity – and 100 per cent homosexuality. The latter is engineered as a form of population control. Breeding is solely by cloning, and heterosexuality is socially abhorrent. Haldeman sets

Florida Man Does It Again

Florida Man Does It Again

We used to say, “Only in America” to describe some outlandish news headline. Americans would probably beg to differ: “Only in Florida”, they might say. Whatever’s in the water in the Sunshine State (meth and hallucinogens, apparently), any headline beginning with “Florida Man…” is guaranteed to be a doozy.

Elite Voice a Big Turn-off

Elite Voice a Big Turn-off

One major reason that the Republic referendum sunk ignominiously in 1999 was the overriding perception that it was all by and for the elite. The sight of a clique of hand-picked politicians and activists whooping it up in Canberra, at the aptly named “Con-con”, was just the start. As one

The Left Are Bringing Back Jim Crow

A mother in Atlanta complaining that her daughter’s school segregates classes into black and white. Surely a headline from the Jim Crow days, pre-Brown versus Board of Education? No, it’s modern America, under the spell of “Critical Race Theory”. And segregation is back in a big way. If

France Cracks Down on Islamic Dress Codes

France Cracks Down on Islamic Dress Codes

Lots of people hate the French. They cite all manner of reasons for doing so, however erroneous. “Surrender monkeys”? Never forget that the French sacrificed around 20 million of their own to stop the first march of German militarism. Even before surrendering in the face of the second, some 73,

Two-Thirds of Voters Think Country Going In Wrong Direction

Two-Thirds of Voters Think Country Going In Wrong Direction

It is very tough for a government to win re-election when two-thirds of voters think the country is heading in the wrong direction. But that is exactly where Chris Hipkins’s Labour Party finds itself: between the proverbial rock and a hard place. Nearly two-thirds of New Zealand voters think

Stamping Their Feet and Holding Their Breath

Stamping Their Feet and Holding Their Breath

If a shitty, woke, “cartoonist” boycotts an award they’re never going to win anyway, does anyone even notice? Over the last few days, a bunch of lefty cartoonists have made a big song and dance of boycotting the Walkleys. Did you hear them? They’re boycotting! That’s right,

Qantas Told to Clean Up Their Room

Qantas Told to Clean Up Their Room

It’s an odd thing: the very people who wax apoplectic that “corporations aren’t people!” also expect corporations to act like people. Because, here’s the thing: only people can make moral judgements. So, when activists blither about “corporate social responsibility”, “triple bottom line”, and “social licence”, they’re

Why We Should Make Cash King Again

Why We Should Make Cash King Again

I’ve recently started deliberately carrying a small amount of cash on me at all times. After years of being beguiled by the indisputable ease of tap-and-go spending, I’ve realised that there are still plenty of reasons to use cash in at least some situations. Not all, of course.
