Here in my part of Tasmania, it’s said to be a sure sign of rain if you hear the call of black cockatoos flying down from the mountains. But everywhere in the world, there’s no surer sign of summer than the demented screeching of the brain-dead parrots of
As BFD regulars will know, one of my favourite sports is poking a stick at the Boomers. Well, for once I’m going to cut the Boomers some slack. The Albanese government has released selected extracts of its 2023 Intergenerational report: extracts which seek to heap blame on an ageing
The “Indigenous Voice” is Australia’s version of co-governance. With one very important difference: we’re at least getting to vote on it, rather than have it imposed by the political class. Otherwise, the same secrecy about the true agenda rules (for instance, the attempt to hide away the full,
We all like to hate cyclists for being precious, self-righteous and over-full of their own entitlement. But there’s another group of road users very nearly as self-righteous and with a towering entitlement complex. Motorcyclists. You can hear the howls of outrage already.

A “trans” child, it is said, is like a vegan cat: you know someone else is really making the decisions. Increasingly, with “trans men” (girls who pretend to be boys) especially, the decisions are being made by their peer groups and the internet. It’s notable that girls identifying as
What is it with socialist governments and utterly failing to learn from already-failed housing schemes? Well, I guess if they were capable of learning from failure, they wouldn’t be socialists. Which is as poor an excuse as any for the Albanese government lining up to join the ranks of

Last Saturday’s BFD poll asked readers which scam hit New Zealand the harder financially out of two choices: Covid or climate change. Of course, government policies will inevitably cost more than budgeted government expenditure; for example, climate change policies increased fuel prices by shutting down fossil-fuel development and production,

Labour’s vote has collapsed into the 20s as the centre-right grabs a lead in the latest 1News Verian poll. While the news might sound good for National, there is still the Luxon problem to deal with. Labour has sunk below 30% in the party vote in the latest 1News
Hope springs eternal for the return of the thylacine. New scientific research related to another species, currently on the edge of extinction, may one day give such hopes some credence. Almost as common as dodgy “sightings” of the almost-certainly-extinct Tasmanian tiger, are hopeful speculations that, Jurassic Park-style, scientists will be
