The “Lab Leak” is back in the news again, it seems. You know, the “right-wing conspiracy theory with no evidence”? Yes, that one. Even more odd, the “racist conspiracy theory” is now being floated by no less than a high-ranking Chinese official. The top Chinese official who led
As I wrote yesterday, if we’ve just seen the economic peak, how much worse are things going to get? Well, we’re getting an idea, now. And it starts with an “R”. You know the word I mean. The dam has burst. Suddenly, in the last two weeks, large
What is it with coppers and granny-zapping lately? In news that went around the world, police in Australia last week tasered a 95-year-old. The woman died following the incident. “Hold our non-lethal weapon,” say British rozzers. Dementia-suffering woman, 91, ‘handcuffed, hooded and strapped down by

We are constantly being told by National Party sycophants that Christopher Luxon is keeping his powder dry for the election campaign. Well if this is keeping your powder dry then God help us all: The National Party says it will make women pay a fee for their contraception prescriptions if
Walking the new puppy this morning, I saw a rather confronting sight at the local sports ground. A homeless person camping near the toilet block. This is a confronting sight, not because of any grudge against the homeless, but simply because it’s even happened. In all the years I’
So, Mark “Sneakers” McGowan has announced his shock resignation. But is it, really? Certainly, for many of us it’s come unexpectedly — but that may be only because we didn’t read the signs in distant WA closely enough. Tellingly, McGowan claims that his sudden resignation is due to “fatigue”
If there’s one thing that tyrants have always dreaded, it’s mockery. “Every joke is a tiny revolution,” as Orwell said. The Nazis launched a full-scale diplomatic offensive against a Finn whose dog mimicked the Heil Hitler salute. Sergei Popovich spent ten years in the Gulag for telling
