As reported on The BFD last week, Senegal, long one of the few stable democracies to survive in a post-Colonial Africa dominated by thugs and riven by tribal hatreds, is descending into the whirlwind of yet another failed African state. Trouble has been brewing for months as the ruling party

If you wondered why Vladimir Putin agreed to the Tucker Carlson interview, consider how Putin opened up Pandora’s Box on the West. He really didn’t have to say much; in fact, some of what he said was confusing. Carlson said it might take him a year to figure
Sinead Boucher was our Face of the Day but the general tenor of her and her pals in other mainstream media is that they don’t believe they should change their business model to reflect modern business practices. That’s basically the thrust of their arguments. The next thing they

I keep saying it, and I’m joking less and less every time I do: time to bulldoze the universities. I’m not joking any more. The rise of wokeism in tandem with a deplorable dumbing-down of standards was bad enough. Encouraging violent censorship and pandering to the thugs of
Half a million Victorians enjoyed a candlelit dinner on Valentine’s Day — whether they wanted it or not. And they’d better get used to it. At least 530,000 homes in Victoria were blacked out yesterday, and hundreds of thousands are likely to remain without power for “days, if
They’re not messing around, in Madagascar. Arguments over whether or not paedophiles have a high recidivism rate, or whether the impulse can be cured, rage on. Some criminologists argue that it has a lower recidivism rate, others, the opposite. Some psychologists claim it can’t be cured and “it’

As I predicted the other day, Christopher Luxon and the National Party are being squeezed hard on treaty issues. David Seymour’s Treaty Principles Bill is increasingly popular, and the polls show it. But Luxon is extremely squishy on this and wetter than an otter’s pocket. Sooner rather than

The ABC costs Australians north of a billion dollars a year. Long-suffering taxpayers are entitled to wonder how much less they’d be paying, if the Ultimo Collective didn’t keep defaming people. On the other hand, centre-right figures seem to be finally learning from one of the left’s
I recently spotted a meme depicting a boatload of “migrants” saying, “We demand to live in safety” — with the rebuttal, “So do — now, f- off!” In memo veritas, indeed. As many parts of Europe are discovering the hard way, “refugees welcome” fast turns into “lock up your women and children”
