The Climate Cult has New Zealand’s political class almost completely in its grip. You can vote for any colour, so long as it’s green. The spectrum of party policies ranges from wishy-washy mint to poisonous emerald. The sad truth is that the entire political class is so
1News has released the latest 1News/Verian Poll and it confirms the Newshub poll. The trend is the most important thing and the trend says National and Labour are slipping away, Act has stalled, and Winston Peters is on a surge, gaining 1 per cent a week. New Zealand First
As the weather warms up, it’s time for Australians and New Zealanders to gird themselves for the annual emergence of the Climate Cult from their long, winter semi-hibernation. By all accounts, this one is going to be a doozy. After a disappointing (for the Cultists) run of mediocre,
As I wrote yesterday, on the issue of nuclear power, the Coalition has found a clear point of difference and a popular bludgeon to belt the government with. If it has the balls to stand up against almost every elite vested interest group in Australia, it’s got another opportunity.
Imagine if Donald Trump had welcomed a former Nazi SS soldier with a standing ovation in Congress. The media would have gone nuts. They lost their minds badly enough over imaginary Nazis, the sheer, catastrophic meltdown over the Donald being seen in company with an actual, WWII-vintage Nazi would
And another one down, another one gone, another one bites the dust… another of the Class of Covid has dropped out. This time, it’s none other than Head Boy himself, Dictator Dan Andrews, soon-to-be-former Victorian premier. Daniel Andrews will step down as Victorian premier after nine

I don’t know what Chris Hipkins has been huffing, it might be hopium, but he reckons he’d take a call from Winston Peters on election night if he needs to. Chance would be a fine thing. Labour leader Chris Hipkins says he would answer a phone call from
If there’s going to be a late surge in support for the “Indigenous Voice” referendum, as the Yes camp insist, then’s it’s a long time coming. With just weeks left until polling day, support instead continues to fall. And that’s after weeks of intense campaigning by
With voting day in the Indigenous Voice” referendum drawing closer, and polls showing support falling even lower, the question naturally becomes: then what? Politics will, after all, continue, regardless of the referendum outcome. For Anthony Albanese, a referendum loss will be a deadly blow to his leadership. Not immediately fatal,

The latest Newshub/Reid Research poll is out and it confirms that Labour are toast. But it also shows what I have been predicting for months: that National’s support would wane and NZ First’s would grow. No wonder Christopher Luxon felt squeezed enough to have to confirm he’
Like mothers throughout human history, mine would often reprimand me for some childish act of group stupidity by asking, if my friends jumped off a cliff, would I do it too? Of course, I never gave her the honest answer: of course I would. Children are idiots and born followers.
Being the Current Thing is a precarious honour. To paraphrase Krusty the Clown, one day, you’re the most important thing there ever was; the next day, you’re some schmo begging for handouts and pissing everyone off. Of course, Ukraine has been begging for handouts all along, but for
Britain nearly got lucky, last year. Nearly. Back in July 2022, when Britain’s ruling Conservatives were casting about for a replacement for the unlamented Boris Johnson, one name that stood out from the pack of CINOs and globalist toadies was Kemi Badenoch. As I wrote back then: If Badenoch
