Sometimes the Australia-New Zealand rivalry just goes too far. It’s one thing to bitch and moan for decades about bowling a grubber, but trying to outdo each other in having the lamest defence policy is quite another. New Zealand cut its air force back to a bloke with a
In recent years, the followers of one religion marched through the streets of Sydney on multiple occasions, demanding, variously, to “Behead those who insult the Prophet”, and to “Gas the Jews!” The leader of another religion responded to being stabbed in the face, mid-sermon, by praying for his attacker. Can
As I wrote recently, even the dim bulbs of the woke left are aware that shilling for the most regressive, misogynist, homophobic religious ideology in the world is an obvious and staggering hypocrisy. So, what do most of them do? What the left always do when they’re caught out:
Does anyone remember 3D TV? The next wave of home entertainment, superseding plasma screens and OLED TVs, and all that old junk. Then, it just disappeared from showrooms faster than a laserdisc copy of Star Trek: The Motion Picture. The hype around 3D TV coincided with a similar fad for
As I wrote, at the start of the week, the circus that keeps on giving the media an endless feed of scandal is going to keep on giving for a while yet. And you can just bet that, despite the excoriating judgement on media conduct by Justice Michael Lee, the
Is there any bar so low that Anthony Albanese can’t limbo right under it? He really is the most contemptible excuse for a Prime Minister I’ve seen in my life — and in my half-century or so, I’ve seen some doozies. We’ve seen the venal and the
When an Assyrian Orthodox congregation in Sydney rioted after the stabbing attack on their bishop by a Muslim, there was much tutting and finger-wagging from police and politicians. But should they have really been surprised? They might want to consider that people are only going to put up with so
As I wrote recently, the all-consuming black hole of taxpayer-funding, the NDIS, is funding some of Australia’s worst rapists and paedophiles to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars each. Some, like unrepentant serial sex offender Wayne Wilmot, north of a million dollars. Because he has a “mild
Remember when suspecting that Covid was engineered in a lab and accidentally leaked meant that you were a conspiracy theory cultist? Mind you the same people calling you a “cultist” were doing stuff like this: As it happens, their beloved Dr Fauci is accused of being neck-deep in the alleged
What’s going on in Sydney, all of a sudden? Two stabbing attacks in just days, and a riot to boot? The first attack, in a Bondi shopping mall, seems, despite early speculation, to not have been a terror attack, but a “de-institutionalised” nutter with a hate-boner for women. The
According to the millions of leftists marching weekly for “Palestine”, it’s not that they hate Jews, they’re just anti-war. Above all, they piously witter, they’re concerned for the children. Which is odd, because, when it comes to a brutal war which is causing untold misery and death
As woeful a PM as he was, Scott Morrison proved, by losing to Anthony Albanese, that Australia could always elect someone worse. Morrison also had one good political line in him, during an otherwise pathetic election campaign. When Albanese bragged that Labor came up with big ideas, Morrison snapped back
Another day, another court case, and the scandal that just keeps on giving… keeps on giving. Justice Michael Lee has handed down his verdict in Bruce Lehrmann’s defamation suit against Channel Ten and Lisa Wilkinson — and what a curious judgement it is. On the one hand, Lee states what
The world is at the most critical crossroads, with the weakest Western leadership, since 1938. At least Chamberlain and Daladier had the poor excuse of desperately doing anything, giving Hitler everything, in order to avoid war. Joe Biden and Antiono Guterres, and closer to home, Anthony Albanese and Penny Wong,
As I wrote for The BFD recently, for a supposed libertarian, David Seymour sure loved some naked authoritarianism when it came to lockdowns and vaccines. As for Christopher Luxon, he’s as wet as slow-boiled kale when it comes to green-left dogmas like climate change. So-called ‘conservatives’ in Australia aren’
