One of my favourite truisms in politics is “explaining is losing”. Yet that is exactly what the NZ Herald did yesterday with a Waitangi Day article explaining to us all why it is that they are impartial, honest and independent. Yes, they really went there. Explaining is losing. If you

The mainstream media are dying, and good riddance. Where Wilbur F. Storey once thundered that it was a newspaper’s duty to “print the news and raise hell”, today’s lickspittle hacks see their only duty as printing lies and kissing boots. For all their blatherskite to the contrary, they
Well, at least the polls aren’t any worse. So must go the chatter from Labor strategists in Canberra, as Anthony Albanese blows another wad of political capital chasing far-left nostrums. At least, unlike the Voice referendum, breaking a solemn promise on Stage 3 tax cuts hasn’t been
Now, if you or I were to run an extension cable across the footpath to run an electrical device on the nature strip, we could be absolutely sure the council would be on us, PDQ. If we were to stack jerry cans of petrol by the curb, to fill up

Maori agitators only seem to come out to play when Labour isn’t in power. That should tell you something about their motives. We are yet again seeing the same old rhetoric at Waitangi: insults, disrespect and pathetic racism from Maori. They want us to respect te ao Maori (emphasis

Is the Biden administration preparing to pull the worst betrayal of an ally by a Western nation since Czechoslovakia was dismembered and handed to the Hitler regime? In 1938, Chamberlain and Deladier cravenly sold out the Czechs in a futile attempt to mollify Hitler’s aggressive avarice. In 2024, Joe
My go-to litmus test for any kind of “diversity and equity” rhetoric or policy is simple: flip the script. If, for instance, it would be racist to forbid a black couple to adopt a white child, then, ipso facto, it’s racist to routinely forbid the adoption of Aboriginal
Before the last election, Anthony Albanese promised “safe, minimal change”. It was a lie even bigger than Jacinda Ardern’s “open and transparent” whopper. Just as Ardern ran a regime of unprecedented, paranoid secrecy, Albanese has busily imposed an agenda of radical, race- and class-warfare antagonism. Last year, Albanese
One of the most disastrous conceits of modern times is the assumption that computers are somehow infallible. This foolish assumption is usually made by people who, like monkeys banging a gun on a nut to crack it, don’t really understand the tools they are using. Just as the gun

Labour, along with their handmaidens in the complicit media, have launched a full-on attack against the Government over alleged conflicts of interest with ministers and the tobacco lobbyists. It’s been a rather forlorn attack, but along the way 1News has doxed the Prime Minister’s sister in law,
