A former police officer who admitted illegally accessing the police database to leak information to an organised criminal
While everyone in New Zealand is losing their mind over a drawing that refers to the measles epidemic very few are having a hard look at who actually bears some responsibility for the measles outbreak. The fact that the PM of Samoa Tuilaepa Sailele was not vaccinated himself until this
Will Kris Faafoi be sacked for allegedly doing favours for a friend who threw him under the bus the minute things didn’t go his way? It certainly looks as though he has breached the Cabinet Manual rules which prohibit doing personal favours for friends or family or anyone else
Here at The BFD we are very fortunate to be able to publish the cartoons of SonovaMin and Boomslang who are both very experienced cartoonists. Given the furore over a cartoon drawn by Garrick Tremain this week, I thought it would be interesting to pop over to a Left-wing blog
My parents’ generation got married before they started a family and most children grew up inside a secure two-parent family unit. Cam and I were both born in 1968 and while we were younger than some of our peers when we married at 23, we waited 5 years into the
Kris Faafoi appears to be in a spot of bother after one of his luvvie muso mates chucked him under the bus to Newshub: Unfulfilled promises made by Kris Faafoi to longtime mate Jason Kerrison have put not only their friendship on the line but the Broadcasting Minister’s job
Lester Gray really is doing himself no favours whatsoever by continuing his wonky jihad against NZ First. Little wonder that Winston Peters is starting to tell the truth about Lester Gray. A Newspaper reports: New Zealand First leader Winston Peters has accused his former party president Lester Gray of having
Surely this is an early April fool’s joke? Closer examination of the date and image suggests that the woman shooting is his previous girlfriend. But it still raises a chuckle don’t you think?
The Witch hunt against Garrick Tremain shows how easily a cartoonist can fall out of favour in today’s super Woke world. When Tremain mocked the number one NZ Political blog Whaleoil during the Dirty Politics saga the luvvies lapped it up and chortled into their Soy lattes. No one
Jacinda is planning a reshuffle in the new year to help her with her narrative of being more competent than Simon Bridges. This means that there are some nervous Labour Ministers who have not exactly covered themselves in glory. It is not just Phil Twyford and Iain Lees-Galloway who are
SonovaMin and Boomslang have some competition. Any cartoon that triggers the always offended, the permanently upset and the luvvies combined has got to be assessed and considered for laughs. Even the guy with the funniest name in NZ, Meng Foon, the Race Relations Commissioner has been triggered by this lighthearted
Today’s face of the day is cartoonist Garrick Tremain. His employers fell for the classic trap. They should never have apologised. Apologies are used against people as the mob say that it is proof that a thought crime has been committed and they then demand that their target loses
Lester Gray is using National MP Nick Smith to continue his wonky jihad against NZ First and now they are wanting to use parliamentary processes to try and destroy the party that Gray used to be the president of. Nick Smith seems intent on provoking the substantial lawsuit that is
The Labour party had traditionally been the party of the working class and a strong supporter of the Unions. Union leader Andrew Little’s selection as leader of the party showed that the party was still a workers’ party. At the weekend, the selection of Claire Szabo as Labour Party
T & L I’ve taken the time, as it’s made itself available to me, to go through the 11,000+ signatories of so-called scientists and I have picked out those who identify as being located in New Zealand. I’ve subjected them all to internet searches. I’ve
This guy broke the law twice trying to enter Australia illegally, and almost certainly handed over money to human traffickers. And the left is okay with that. Also “torture”? Really? Where is the evidence that this illegal migrant was tortured?
