Bring It

Chris Hipkins has declared that Labour’s campaigning this election is going to abandon the “Be Kind” nonsense of Ardern and go negative. We are going to see a resurgence of the Nasty Party. Negative campaigning is something the left loves to do. All I can say is ‘Bring it’

Never a Dull Moment With This Lot

Never a Dull Moment With This Lot

As I wrote last week regarding the sacking of Mark Latham as leader of the One Nation party in NSW, Pauline Hanson might want to ask some in the Labor party about the fury of a Latham spurned. When he was ousted as Labor leader after the 2004 election, Latham

Media Watch Questions ABC ‘Fact Check’

Well, it looks like I was wrong: Australian PM Anthony Albanese will be going ahead with the “Indigenous Voice” referendum, after all. In my own defence, I will point out that, all along, I have only ever suggested Albanese abandoning it as a remote possibility. After all, even Treasurer Jim

Are the Crazy Pills Wearing Off?

Sometimes I know just how Mugatu felt. Jacobim Mugatu is the fashion-designer villain of the 2001 comedy, Zoolander. When everyone else swoons over male model Derek Zoolander’s range of “looks”, Mugatu finally screams in disbelief. They’re the same face! Doesn’t anybody notice this? I feel like

Now Dinosaur Bones Lead to Rome

Now Dinosaur Bones Lead to Rome

The systematic study of fossils truly began around the 17th century, while the term “paleontology” was only coined in 1822. But, just because they didn’t have a name for their study, or understand what they really were, doesn’t mean that humans weren’t aware of the existence of

National Should Change Their Name to the Me Too Party

There is a reason why the Opposition in politics is called the Opposition. The clue is in the name, but it is a clue that seems to have escaped the notice of Christopher Luxon, the man who currently leads the National Party. It seems that on almost every key policy

Get Your Earplugs Ready for Summer

Get Your Earplugs Ready for Summer

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

Labor Debt Mines Primed to Blow

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

Another Round of Pearl-Clutching From Voice Campaign

Another Round of Pearl-Clutching From Voice Campaign

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
