Demolishing Dams for the Fish Gods

An expert, it is said, is someone who knows more and more about less and less, until finally they know everything about nothing. We’re constantly lectured to “listen to the experts”: the problem is, though, that the experts have spent the last five years especially proving to everyone who’

Keep Your Noses Out of Our Fridges

If only we could hook up turbines to the wagging fingers of the nanny statists, we’d have abundant renewable energy, forever. There’s nothing these taxpayer-funded nosey-parkers don’t see fit to hector and finger-wag us about. Especially food. “Food,” as blogger Skepchick said, “is for white liberals what

From One Trough to the Next

Politicians are unique in one special regard: they never suffer the consequences of their actions and amazingly move from one well-filled trough to the next almost seamlessly. And so it is with Grant Robertson, arguably the worst Finance Minister in living memory. He’s quit Parliament and landed a cushy

If They’re So Great, Build Them in Fitzroy

Ever notice that they never build wind farms or acres of solar plants in Ultimo, Ponsonby, or Fitzroy? It’s funny how green-left types who worship at the altar of their bird-chomping eco-crucifixes and deserts of silicon and glass never want them in their back yards. Put up a field

Here We Go Again: Boats Edition

Here We Go Again: Boats Edition

As if Anthony Albanese hasn’t stepped on enough landmines already, the deadliest ordnance any Labor government can trigger has just started ticking: boats. Illegal boat arrivals have been political kryptonite for Labor for decades, ever since John Howard ordered the Tampa turned back. Since then, the pattern has been

Do Media Think Luxon Is Lying?

Do Media Think Luxon Is Lying?

Jacinda Ardern can do no wrong in the eyes of some mainstream media, making her government’s list of failures of no interest to them despite the public emphatically rejecting a further term of financial mismanagement, cost blowouts and social restructuring. Doubtless, the MSM will give the coalition no quarter

Now Give Them Their Jobs Back

The NZDF lost in the Court of Appeal which upheld an earlier case declaring the vaccine mandates for the NZDF were illegal. I’ve lost count of how many times Ardern’s draconian mandates and lockdowns have been found illegal. But now: In a bombshell legal decision, the Court of

How the Climate Cult Wrecked Science

How the Climate Cult Wrecked Science

I was delighted, recently, to find the complete series of In Search Of… free on YouTube. For those who don’t remember, In Search Of… is a slice of classic ’70s weirdness, pre-New Age, with Leonard Nimoy totes seriously chasing every bit of fruitcakery, from the Loch Ness monster, to

Who Profited From Oct 7?

As we are all well aware, Hamas’ commanders live in luxury while their ‘brother and sister martyrs’ starve amid the rubble of the war they started. We also know only too well that most of their vast wealth is siphoned off from the billions of dollars of ‘aid’ money that

So Much for ‘Safe and Effective’

So Much for ‘Safe and Effective’

One of the big problems with medical and scientific malpractice is that it’s a lot easier to commit than expose or remedy. Thalidomide, for example: it took years and tens of thousands of deformed babies before the drug was taken off the market. By the time the Wakefield paper

Big Wins for EU Farmers

Big Wins for EU Farmers

Greta Thunberg only has to scowl (as if she has any other expression on that charmless mug) and it’s front page news. In far-away Buenos Aires, a gaggle of left-wingers stamp their feet at Javier Milei and the media are agog. Tens of thousands of farmers stage monster protests
