You Are Being Lied To

You Are Being Lied To

You are being lied to. Politicians of shades red and green shout and accuse banks, boomers, builders, suppliers, landlords, investors, immigrants, all and sundry, of responsibility for ‘house’ prices and the manifest unaffordability thereof. They do this for reasons dishonest. Because the truth is they want the price barrier in

The Fascinating Case of the Disappearing Article

Fascinating. “According to new data, the U.S. currently ranks first in total COVID-19 cases, new cases per day and deaths…from mid-March to mid-September, U.S. total deaths have reached 1.7 million, of which 200,000, or 12% of total deaths, are COVID-19-related. Instead of looking directly at

Dominion Post Achieve the Impossible

They said it was impossible, they said it couldn’t be done, yet: there you have it, the Dominion Post has become even worse under new editor Anna Fifield’s stewardship. The headline reference to ‘Frankenstein’ actually relates to author Mary Shelley’s mother; Mary Wollstonecraft and the recent unveiling

A Metamorphosis as Interesting as the Mob’s Reaction to It

The Pete Evans Kristallnacht that occurred this week, almost exactly 82 years after the original, was instructive and informative, don’t you think? The torching of the man’s reputation and smashing of his business an episode of ugly mob-rule the type of which the thugs and goons that composed

Deplatformed for the Crime of Conservative Content

The co-ordinated worldwide march on freedom of expression took another nasty turn yesterday, yet again (predictably) to the left, with the eviction of The Conservative Treehouse (TCH) — a pro-Republican site with a strong Christian faith bent — from WordPress, not for any rule violation, not for any inflammatory statements, not because

The White Male

Chapter One: Loomings Call me Cynical. Some years ago – never mind how long precisely – it began to distract me, a male of not unnaturally-nervous disposition, that efforts were afoot to segregate and undermine a section of our community. A community submitting not more unduly to the vast spectrum of human

Massey Professor Labels Opposition Parties “Irrelevant”

Well, that’s that then, according to Newshub. By that train of communication the message is necessarily suspect, as that mob definitely are given to mangling quotes beyond all original meaning; but if it does contain a grain of truth, it appears a Professor, if one can call him that

Korero from the Throne

Information Satire Morena, ka pai; Aotearoa, this is your Kuini, and this is important korero, so please take notice.

Being Fed a Big Fat Lie

Being Fed a Big Fat Lie

It’s so easy being Labour: just take gobs-ful of lies and then regurgitate same down the needy throats of voracious, unquestioning, and juvenile media-nesters who swallow them without hesitation. Thus it was with Andrew Little condescendingly trivialising the sexual groping of a female prison officer in ‘alerting’ the public

I don’t mean to be rude, but I’d like to ask if anybody else finds these coincidences curious? While the NZ Greens are desperate to make 5% to maintain relevance and ensure left-wing government in NZ (remembering the overseas lefty votes have been the Greens’ saviours several times

God’s Gift to the Left

Just as a stopped clock displays the time correctly once every twelve hours, so a washed-up, silver-spooned, self-anointed, self-appointed ‘radical’ can be on the money with the occasional utterance. Thus it was with ‘Hanoi Jane’ Fonda last week: “I just think COVID is God’s gift to the left” [snigger]
